AbstractUnconventional hydrocarbons represent the future of fossil fuel supply. Arguably the most exciting unconventional deposits are those provided by shale gas and shale oil, hydrocarbons generated and retained by fine grained sedimentary rocks. Effective exploration for shale gas and shale oil requires screening of large numbers of samples in a time and cost effective manner. The most promising samples are then selected for more sophisticated and time consuming procedures. We have examined a new screening technique for shale gas and shale oil. Pyrolysis-FTIR provides a substantial amount of information related to shale quality in a single analysis including the types of gases present (including methane) and the nature of any liquid hydr...
