Understanding organic matter supply in the Eocene to Miocene Lark Formation, Danish North Sea
The significance of the Lark Formation is underscored by the variations in regional depositional environments and climatic conditions that characterized the late Cenozoic sedimentary flux into the Danish North Sea basin. This study marks the first systematic investigation of sedimentary organic matter in the Lark Formation. A total of 391 drill cuttings from 7 wells in the Danish North Sea were collected and analyzed. All 391 samples were analyzed by pyrolysis geochemistry, and thirty-eight were examined petrographically using reflected light to document maceral composition. This allowed the investigation into spatial and temporal variations in the distribution and properties of organic matter within the Danish North Sea Basin from the latest Eocene to the Middle Miocene. The results reveal that the organic matter comprises primarily Type III kerogen and is thermally immature, as indicated by thermal indicators (T < 430 °C, mean HRo = 0.3%, mean R/G = 0.51). The kerogen is predominantly composed of huminite (abundant), liptinite (less abundant), and inertinite (trace quantity) macerals.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Coal Geology deals with fundamental and applied aspects of the geology and petrology of coal, oil/gas source rocks and shale gas resources. The journal aims to advance the exploration, exploitation and utilization of these resources, and to stimulate environmental awareness as well as advancement of engineering for effective resource management.
