Factors Affecting Shale Gas Chemistry and Stable Isotope and Noble Gas Isotope Composition and Distribution: A Case Study of Lower Silurian Longmaxi Shale Gas, Sichuan Basin

Factors Affecting Shale Gas Chemistry and Stable Isotope and Noble Gas Isotope Composition and Distribution: A Case Study of Lower Silurian Longmaxi Shale Gas, Sichuan Basin

The Weiyuan (WY) and Changning (CN) fields are the largest shale gas fields in the Sichuan Basin. Though the shale gases in both fields are sourced from the Longmaxi Formation, this study found notable differences between them in molecular composition, carbon isotopic composition, and noble gas abun...
