Marine Shale Gas Occurrence and Its Influencing Factors: A Case Study from the Wufeng-Longmaxi Formation, Northwestern Guizhou, China by Taotao Cao, Hu Liu, Anyang Pan, Mo Deng, Qinggu Cao, Ye Yu, Yanran Huang, Zhenghui Xiao

“…Shale gas content is positively correlated with micropore volume, mesopore volume and TOC content but negatively correlated with macropore volume and clay mineral content, indicating that methane is preferentially stored in micropores (<2 nm) and mesopores (2–50 nm) related to OMs. By comparing actual total gas content with theoretical gas content, shale gas is considered to exist primarily in sorbed state, and the free gas proportion can increase with increased TOC content, due to that OM pores with larger sizes are also main space for free gas. …”
