A. SOURCE ROCK EVALUATION
SP.SAMPLE PREPARATION
SP.1
SAMPLE WASHING
Samples are thoroughly washed to remove drilling mud. Particular care is required for
soft mudstones and fine-grained unconsolidated sands. The samples are then dried,
bagged and identified by a code number.
SP.2
LITHOLOGICAL DESCRIPTION
Geologists describe individual lithologies and estimate the proportion of each within
the sample. The API colour code is used for accuracy. Cavings and LCM are noted.
Fluorescence and cut are examined in reservoir facies. Sample description is
performed in conjunction with well logs when available. Subsequent analyses are
cross referenced to specific lithologies.
SP.3
HAND PICKING
Each lithology of interest (for source or shows) is hand picked for separate analysis.
LCM and obvious cavings are removed.
SP.4
SURCHARGE FOR FINELY GROUND SAMPLES
This is only applied when the rock particles are extremely small as is sometimes the
case with turbo drilling.
SP.5
SURCHARGE FOR REMOVAL OF CONTAMINATION
Some samples are severely contaminated and require special, prolonged clean-up
procedures to remove oil-based drilling contamination. Each sub-sample is placed in
the soxhlet and extracted using toluene (48-72 hours)
SP.6
HAND-PICKING FOR EXTRACTION
Separating enough single lithology material for C 15+ extraction can be extremely time
consuming and in such cases an additional charge is applied.

Organic carbon content (weight %) of individual lithologies hand picked from canned,
bagged or core samples. Indicates amount of organic matter in a rock.
FA.2
ROCK EVAL PYROLYSIS
Measures thermal bitumen (S1), pyrolysate (S2) and Tmax. Abundances of thermal
bitumen (S1) and of pyrolysate (S2) measure the free hydrocarbon and ultimate
hydrocarbon yield respectively. Tmax is a maturity parameter. Thermal bitumen (S1),
pyrolysate (S2), hydrogen index, production index and Tmax (oC) are reported.
FA.3 C15+ EXTRACTION AND LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY
Measures the abundance of C15+ hydrocarbons. The total soluble extract (TSE)
recovered from the sediment with organic solvent is quantitatively fractionated into
saturated (paraffin+naphthene) hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, NSO nonExhibit - Page 3 of 58

fifty (50) determinations are made per sample. Individual readings, interpreted
populations and histograms (with comments) are reported.
FA.7 GC-MS FOR C15+SATURATED HYDROCARBONS
Gas Chromatography/ Mass Spectrometer–analysis of the C15+saturate hydrocarbons
(In Crude oil or Extracts of source rocks) by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry

distribution in turn detected in m/z 217, 218, 259, 231 fragmentograms and m/z
191,177, 205, 123… fragmentograms.
FA.8 GC-MS FOR C15+AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS

Interpretations are written by professional geochemists to emphasise and explain the
exploration significance of the analytical data. They include the available geological
information (e.g. formation tops). Three levels of reporting are used-a summary of the
conclusions, the conclusions, a detailed text with reasoning. Appropriate diagrams are
incorporated into the text with remaining graphical and tabulated data as an appendix. Report
formats can be tailored to client's specifications. Magnetic tape or floppy disc format data
reporting is available. Every attempt is made in the report to address specific problems posed
by the client. Rapid preliminary interpretations are provided for immediate problems.

10 scale. Particularly useful when vitrinite is either absent or totally reworked. The
character of the organic matter (organic facies) is also determined with this analysis .
 KEROGEN type
Same analysis as Spore colouration. Proportions of amorphous, herbaceous, algal,
woody and inertinitic material estimated. Quality of amorphous kerogen, degree of
sapropelisation, reworking, preservation and particle size. Principal method for
determining organic facies.

Specific objectives were:
1. To define important biostratigraphic events, in particular quantitative changes in
abundance and diversity of the microfossil types present.
2. To improve existing biostratigraphic resolution through event succession and dating of
the samples.
3. To define paleo-environments and paleo-water depth.
4. To define key flooding surfaces and potential sequence boundaries.
5. To integrate with sedimentological and well log data to generate a sequence model for
the succession.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
 Environmental Baseline Studies: Surveying, assessing existing environment and
setting up environmental database.
 Preparing reports of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), strategic EIA and
commitment of environmental protection for onshore/offshore petroleum
exploration, appraisal and production activities; for port activities, construction and
installation of oil and gas pipelines, terminals, petroleum processing plant,
refineries; petrochemical plant; and for other industrial projects such as fertilizer/
chemicals plants.. etc.
 Establishing Oil Spill Response Plan (OSRP) for Petroleum operations, Port
facilities, and Coastal provinces; Using Oil Drift Model to predict the scale and the
pollution level of spilled oil.
 Establishing and Use Environmental Sensitivity Map for OSRP and Environmental
Management Plan.
 Using Models: Air Emission, Wastewater Dispersion, Spreading of drilling Mud
and Cuttings to predict range and pollution levels of air, water and sediment.
 Assessing impacts and treatment of oil pollution from oil spill incidents.
 Consulting environment protection and establishing environmental management
plan for the projects.

petroleum, chemical, construction, transportation, and agriculture projects;
onshore, offshore and riverine oil pollution incidents/accidents;
 Analyzing and assessing different kinds of environmental samples (natural water,
domestic and industrial discharge waters, soils, sediments from pond, lake, river,
sea, discharged drilling cuttings, ambient air, emission….), comprising of
parameters: oil and grease, hydrocarbons, metals, pesticides residuals, phenols,
organic matters, orgarnic carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous, particle size, air
contaminants (SOx, NOx, CO, O3, H2S, hydrocarbon, lead, dust…)
 Performing other specialized tests and experiments:
+ Contents of poly-aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals in bivalve tissues
+ Contents of mercury in gas and condensate
+ Identifying pollution oil origin using gas-chromatography,
chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and Biomarker
gas-
+ Oil weathering test and efficiency test of dispersants in order to supply
necessary data to set up plans of preventing and overcoming the consequence of
oil-polluted incidents
