oil video

Visualization of oil and gas generation and expulsion

 
 

The videos in this website enable us to visualize how oil and gas are generated and expulsed from source rocks and coals. These videos were real-time recorded under microscope during maturation of kerogens and coals at elevated temperatures. The videos may also tell us if the studied source rock or coal would generate oil and gas, oil, or gas in nature. You may use these videos for educational, research, or other non-commercial purposes.

      We are currently conducting systematic experiments for samples from different depositional environments worldwide. The videos from new experiments will be online constantly in this website via YouTube. If you are interested in conductting experiments for your samples, please contact: Wuu-Liang Huang at wlhuang@ntu.edu.tw.
