Contribution of soluble organic matter to hydrocarbon generation in saline lacustrine source rocks: Evidence from thermal simulation experiments

Soluble organic matter generally exists in the source rocks of saline lacustrine basins. In this paper, we quantified the contribution of soluble organic matter to hydrocarbon generation based on thermal simulation experiments using a saline lacustrine source rock from the Qaidam Basin. Our results...
