Novel maturity parameters for mature to over-mature source rocks and oils based on the distribution of phenanthrene series compounds

Pyrolysis experiments of a low-mature bitumen sample originated from Cambrian was conducted in gold capsules. Abundance and distribution of phenanthrene series compounds in pyrolysis products were measured by GC-MS to investigate their changes with thermal maturity. Several maturity parameters based...
