Overview

Analysis uncovers key factors affecting organic matter in source rocks of the Upper Triassic, suggesting routes for petroleum exploration.

Key Points

  • Organic matter enrichment is significantly impacted by the depositional environment and local conditions, and marine settings contribute to this complexity.
  • TOC content in the Bagong Formation ranges from 0.29% to 2.20%, indicating varying organic matter retention in the source rocks.
  • By employing organic geochemistry and trace element data, this analysis offers insights on the nature of the organic matter present.
  • The findings have implications for petroleum exploration strategies, suggesting evaluation of both organic geochemistry and climatic factors involved.
