ESTIMATION APPARATUS AND THE METHOD OF POTENTIAL OF SHALE GAS USING INORGANIC GEOCHEMICAL PROXIES

摘要

The present invention relates to an apparatus for assessing potentiality of shale gas using geochemical indicator, enabling the assessment in potentiality of formation and storage in a shale layer. The present invention further relates to a method thereof. To this end, the apparatus for assessing potentiality of shale gas comprises a thermal analysis part (10), a main element content measurement part (20), a trace element content measurement part (30), a biogenetic element content deriving part (40), an autogenous element content deriving part (50), an initial hydrogen index (HIo) calculation part (60), and a gas potentiality assessment part (70).
