Evaluation of petroleum generation by hydrous phrolysis experimentation
Abstract
Generation and expulsion of oil from organic sedimentary rocks have been achieved in the laboratory by a technique known as hydrous pyrolysis. This technique maintains a liquid water phase in contact with organic sedimentary rocks during their heating at subcritical water temperatures (less than 374 °C ). The expelled oil accumulates on the water surface and contains no measurable olefmic hydrocarbons. Hydrous pyrolysis provides a means of acquiring inform ation relating to stages, kinetics an d indices of petroleum generation that would be difficult to obtain from a study of only the natural system

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
