Towards Sustainable Geoenergy and Transition to Net Zero
Article
Extracting gas from unconventional shale reservoirs with low permeability is challenging. To overcome this, hydraulic fracturing (HF) is employed. Despite enhancing shale gas production, HF has drawbacks like ...

Article
Trace element pollution of soils surrounding coal-mining areas affects the health of local communities. The increasing coal-mining and associated activities in the Raniganj basin (east India) have led to incre...
Article
Soil pollution due to coal mining and its associative activities has become a serious environmental concern in India. The by-products of coal mining are often disposed directly to the bare lands, significantly...
Article
Unconventional shale petroleum systems, owing to their petroleum generation and storage properties have gained tremendous exploitation and research interest in recent years. Moreover, their emergence as potent...
Article
In the present study, shale samples from Rajmahal Basin, India, were analysed in terms of their source rock properties using an open-system programmed pyrolysis instrument (Rock–Eval 6). Comprehensive analysis...
Article
Vitrain is one of the most important lithotype for the end utilization of humic coals in relevant industries. In this work, we examine the thermal, structural and pyrolysis properties of vitrains, manually iso...
Article
The Rock-Eval technique in the last few decades has found extensive application for source rock analysis. The impact of shale particle crush-size and sample weight on key Rock-Eval measurements, viz. the S2 curve...
Article
In this work, thermal behaviors of ten coal samples (across different thermal maturity levels) collected from five different open cast mines in the Jharia and Raniganj basins, India, were examined using differ...
Article
Source-rock properties and pore structural properties of Permian shales (Barakar Formation) were evaluated from two Indian basins, with contrasting thermal maturities. South Rewa basin shales were marked by lo...
Article
This paper examines the source rock potential and pore structural framework of Lower Permian shales belonging to Barren Measures and Barakar Formations of Jharia basin, eastern India. The Jharia basin contains...
Article
The Rock-Eval technique has been conventionally used for source-rock analysis. In this work we document the importance of Rock-Eval S4 oxidation graphics and S4-Tpeak as indicators for coal reactivity and thermal...
