Hydrocarbon Fluid Inclusions In Petroliferous Basins

Hydrocarbon Fluid Inclusions in Petroliferous Basins Book Summary

Hydrocarbon Fluid Inclusions in Petroliferous Basins trains readers to detect HCFIs in sedimentary rocks, particularly the wafer preparation to visualize HCFIs, its distinction from aqueous inclusions, petrographic approaches to HCFIs, microthermometric observations on HCFIs, fluorescence emission spectra and Raman spectra of HCFIs, and their interpretations for the petroleum industry. The book features case studies from the Mumbai and Kerala Konkan Basins of the Western Offshore of India - two representative basins where new, non-destructive, fluid inclusion techniques were tested. This book is essential reading for students of petroleum geology and those working in exploration in the oil and gas industry. Helps readers to identify Hydrocarbon Fluid Inclusions (HCIs) in sedimentary basins Covers how to determine the oil window, API gravity and chemical constituents in HCFIs Includes case studies on key offshore basins
