Article scientifique 2018 Anglais

Résumé

In this work, phytoclasts, opaques, Amorphous Organic Matter (AOM) and palynomorphs of the Nkporo group underwent Visual Kerogen analysis. Herein, the average percent counts of phytoclasts are about 42.08%, opaques are about 34.54%, Amorphous Organic Matter (AOM) is about 16.34%, and Palynomorphs are about 7.08%. The highest number of percent counts produced was found in the phytoclasts (the value of 42.08% indicating Type III kerogen and Gas Prone) and Amorphous Organic Matter (AOM) (the value of which - 34.54% - indicates Oil/Gas Prone). Thus, from the results of the visual kerogen, in the Nkporo Group, the source rock is of Type III kerogen, which is gas prone, and also Type II/III, which is Oil/Gas prone.
