摘要: Late Jurassic organic-rich shales from Shabwah sub-basin of western Yemen were analysed based on a combined investigations of organic geochemistry and petrology to define the origin, type of organic matter and the paleoenvironment conditions during deposition. The organic-rich shales have high total sulphur content values in the range of 1.49–4.92 wt.%, and excellent source rock potential is expected based on the high values of TOC (> 7%), high extractable organic matter content and hydrocarbon yield exceeding 7000 …
