This work carried out a high-resolution and systematic core sampling of well Z101 in the YQ city, southern Ordos Basin, and the well location is shown in Figure 1. The lithology of the samples is gray and black, black mud shale, black oil sandstone, gray and dark gray mud siltstone, and gray and dark gray silt mudstone (Figure 1). The samples range from Chang 3 to 8 members of the Yanchang Formation. Representative samples were selected for organic and inorganic geochemical analyses. The tests included total organic matter content, organic carbon and kerogen stable carbon isotopes, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, stable carbon isotopic compositions of individual hydrocarbons, and major/trace elements.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
