Paleo-biodegradation and hydrocarbon mixing in a major hybrid petroleum reservoir

Abstract Some of the parental material for hydrocarbons produced from low-permeability reservoirs in Western Canada corresponds to thermal products from biodegraded oil. This has been proved by the occurrence of framboidal pyrite, which is often formed during microbial sulfate reduction (MSR). In ad...
