Maceral Control on the Hydrocarbon Generation Potential of Lacustrine Shales: A Case Study of the Chang 7 Member of the Triassic Yanchang Formation, Ordos Basin, North China

Organic matter (OM) type critically controls the hydrocarbon generation potential and organic pore development in black shales. However, maceral variation in lacustrine shales and its control on hydrocarbon generation potential and organic pore development are not yet well understood. In this study,...
