Palynofacies

April 5, 2015 Filled under Com II

Aim The Palynofacies working group was proposed by Isabel Suárez-Ruiz at the 2011 Porto meeting. Palynofacies is an integral part of organic petrology and there is need to better integrate this work into the efforts of the ICCP. Dr. João Graciano Mendonça Filho is the working group convener. At the Porto meeting several potential objectives […] more

Thermal Indices

January 29, 2014 Filled under Com II

Aim This working group was established in 1988 at the ICCP Meeting in Aachen. The aim was to look at the various thermal indices (i.e., vitrinite reflectance, fluorescence, thermal alteration index, Rock-Eval, volatile matter, elemental composition) in respect to their sensitivity at different rank levels, their limitations and the correlations and comparabilities amongst them. Objectives […] more

Environmental Application of Organic Petrology

January 29, 2013 Filled under Com III

The Environmental Application of Organic Petrology Working Group was formed at the 45th Annual Meeting of the ICCP held at Chania, Crete, Greece in 1993. Objectives The original objectives of the Working Group under A. Depers & J. Bailey guidance were: to review case studies where organic petrology has helped to solve environmental problems; to compile information on methods […] more

Coal Bed Methane-CO2 Sequestration

August 29, 2012 Filled under Com II

If you are interested in participating in the CBM-CO2 working group, please contact convener Lila Gurba at l.gurba@unsw.edu.au. Objectives The WG was created in Porto (1998) based on a proposal by Paul Lyons (U.S. Geological Survey) with the aim of identifying possible contributions of organic petrology to coalbed methane studies. At the 2001 Copenhagen meeting Lila […] more

Shale Gas Studies

August 19, 2012 Filled under Com II

Background Shale gas currently is a hot topic among exploration activities in USA, Poland, Australia, and other countries; however, shale gas explorationists are facing tremendous challenges: Despite its geographic abundance and enormous production potential, gas shale presents a number of challenges – ranging from the lack of an agreed-upon definition of what, exactly, comprises shale […] more
