The C29 hopane, 30-norhopane, is not only a member of the series of regular hopanes but also of a less common series that lack the methyl group at C-22 in the side chain, the 30-norhopanes.

We introduced the usage of a box-size numerical model of miscible multiphase flow, with explicit advection and diffusion in both the liquid and gas phases, to model the migration and…
Senior Petroleum Geochemist / Basin Modeller
By Andrew Green
Â
In petroleum geochemistry, a source rock is classified as an interval of rock that contains sufficient organic matter of the right type that has the potential to generate, or has already generated, commercial quantities of hydrocarbons.

Tetracyclic Polyprenoids (TPPs) By Paul Farrimond
Two C30 tetracyclic polyprenoids (TPPs) are often seen as a characteristic doublet of peaks eluting after the C27-C29 diasteranes in the m/z 259 mass chromatogram from GC-MSÂ analysis of oils and source rocks (Holba et al. , 2000).

The geological storage of CO2 is a promising means to help reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere during the energy transition stages (e. g. , Raza et al. , 2022).

Calibration to measured data is an essential model validation process in any domain. The calibration of basin models, used to constrain the coupled thermal-burial history of sedimentary basins, has traditionally been a subjective and iterative process.
