Application to 1-D Basin Modeling

Purpose Basin and Petroleum System Modeling

Simulation of basin evolution: tracking hydrocarbon generation and expulsion

Estimate volume hydrocarbon entrapment, flow and accumulation


Spatial scale: 10s to 100s of Kms. Time scale: 100s to Mas

Dynamic reservoir geometry

1D model: examines burial history at a point location. 2-D model: either in map or cross section, can be used to reconstruct oil and gas generation, migration and accumulation along a cross section. 3-D model: reconstructs petroleum systems at reservoir and basin scales and has the ability to display the output in 1D, 2D or 3D, and through time

Basin and Petroleum System Modeling Materials


Main Input Sediment deposition (Stratigraphy) Erosion Lithology Petroleum System Elements (PSE) Total Organic Carbon (TOC) Kinetics Hydrogen Index Boundary Conditions Paleo-Water Depth (PWD) Sediment Water Interface Temperature (SWI-Temperature) Heat Flow

Al-Hajeri and Al Saeed et al. (2009)

Main Input

TOC: Quantity of organic carbon in source rock, both kerogen and bitumen. HI: (S2/TOC) x 100 An estimate of hydrogen richness in source rock. It help estimating maturity if kerogen content is known. HI-OI plot can give a rough assessment of petroleum generative potential of a source rock

Boundary Conditions

Paleo-Water Depth (PWD) is an important parameter which controls the rate of sedimentation, erosion, and the volume of water controls pressure load on top of a system.

Temperature controls transformation of kerogen into petroleum
