Experimental study of supercritical methane adsorption in Longmaxi shale: Insights into the density of adsorbed methane

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the methane adsorption capacity and the characteristics of gas shales under high pressures, and they conducted total organic carbon (TOC), low-pressure nitrogen adaption (LPNA), and high-pressure methane adsoption experiments (up to 30.0 MPa) on eight Lower Silurian Longmaxi shale samples collected from northeastern Chongqing, China.

Fractured shale-gas systems

TL;DR: The first commercial United States natural gas production (1821) came from an organic-rich Devonian shale in the Appalachian basin this article, which is a continuous-type biogenic (predominant), thermogenic, or combined biogenic-thermogenic gas accumulations characterized by widespread gas saturation, subtle trapping mechanisms, seals of variable lithology, and relatively short hydrocarbon migration distances.
