Quantitative Measurement of Retained Oil in Organic-Rich Shale—A Case Study on the Chang 7 Member in the Ordos Basin, China

This study proposes a method to calculate the retained oil content (WO) in cores collected by a sealed tool from organic-rich shale with thermal maturity around%Ro = 0.8 in the Ordos Basin, China. Approaches such as soaking cores at low temperature, multiple extractions, multiple pyrolysis, and mult...
