Petroleum geochemistry, burial history and shale gas potential of the Goldwyer Formation - Canning Basin, Western Australia

Several organic-rich shale horizons in the Canning Basin, Western Australia, acted as source rocks for conventional oil and gas fields. The aim of this study is to investigate one of its units, the Goldwyer Formation (Ordovician in age, as the Utica Shale in USA) as a potential shale gas play. Geoch...
