Thermal and geochemical investigation of Seyitomer oil shale

The results of an experimental study on the thermal and organic geochemical investigation of Seyitomer oil shale sample are presented. Thermogravimetry (TG/DTG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) have been used to determine the thermal behaviour of the oil shale sample. On the other hand, organic carbon content, rock-eval pyrolysis, and gas and liquid chromatography experiments were conducted to determine geochemical properties of the oil shale sample.
