2 Common conditions for heavy oils1987Heavy oils; Colloidal admixtures; Hydrocarbons; Asphaltenes; Trace metals; Organic residues; Alberta basin; Eastern Venezuela basin; Athabasca; Orinoco; Heavy-oil depositys; Common conditions for heavy oilsField evidence suggests that conditions for the collection and retention of various hydrocarbons exert control over the composition of resident hydrocarbon mixtures. Heavy-oil deposits demonstrate that control very clearly. Heavy oils are essentially colloidal admixtures of hydrocarbons, usually acc...
3 Instrumental analysis of tars and their correlations in oil-impregnated sandstone beds, Uintah and Grand Counties, Utah1971-10tar analysis; oil-impregnated sandstone beds; sandstone.The Wasatch, Green River and Uinta formations, in ascending order make up the normal sequence of exposed Eocene rocks in the southeast Uinta Basin, Uintah and Grand counties, Utah. They dip northward towards the center of the basin, relatively undisturbed by faulting, and exhibit a system of promine...
4 Biological markers from Green River kerogen decomposition1981-09Isoprenoid and other hydrocarbons that are formed in living organisms and preserved in ancient sediments are often called biological markers. The purpose of this paper is to develop improved methods of using isoprenoid hydrocarbons to trace petroleum or shale oil to its source. It is demonstrated th...
5 Carbon dioxide sequestration: Effect of the presence of sulfur dioxide on the mineralogical reactions and on the injectivity of CO2+SO2 mixtures2010-01Carbon dioxide sequestration; CO2; Sequestration stream; Gas injection; CO2+SO2 mixture; Brine; Arkose; Calcite; Anhydrite; Calcium carbonate; CaCO3; Ankerite; Absolute permeabilities; Free-gas; Dissolved gas distribution; Saline formation; Contaminant gases; sulfur dioxide; SO2; Hydrogen sulfide; H...This report presents experimental and modeling data on certain aspects of carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration. As different processes are developed and implemented to facilitate the capture of CO2, other contaminant gases (sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and ammonia) may be present in the sequestrat...
6 Occurrence of biomarkers in Green River shale oil1983-03Biomarkers; Biological markers; Shale oils; In-situ retorting; Green River FormationBiological markers, compounds derived essentially unchanged from living organisms, are found in oil-bearing rocks, petroleum and most ancient sediments. We are investigating the variation in ratios of certain biomarkers in shale oils and their use as tracers for relating oil to source rock during in...
7 Lands with wilderness characteristics, Resource Management Plan constraints, and land exchanges: Cross-jurisdictional management and impacts on unconventional fuel development in Utah's Uinta Basin2012-03Utah oil shale; oil sands; unconventional fuel resources; land exchanges; land rightsUtah is rich in oil shale and oil sands resources. Chief among the challenges facing prospective unconventional fuel developers is the ability to access these resources. Access is heavily dependent upon land ownership and applicable management requirements. Understanding constraints on resource acce...
8 Fluidized-bed pyrolysis of oil shale1981-10Fluidized-bed pyrolysis; oil shale; isothermal fluidized-bed reactors; hydrocarbon evolutionSeveral quartz isothermal fluidized-bed reactors have been constructed in order to measure kinetics and oil properties relevant to surface retorting by fluidized-bed processes. The rate of volatile total hydrocarbon evolution is measured with a flame ionization detector, although various techniques ...
9 Identification by 13C NMR of carbon types in shale oil and their relationship to pyrolysis conditions1983-04shale oil; multiple-pulse techniques; shale oil characterization; identification of carbon types; pyrolysis conditionsA number of samples of shale oil prepared under various conditions have been examined by 13C NMR using multiple-pulse techniques that allow carbon-type assignments. Previous assignments by Netzel et al (1981) are confirmed and several new ones made. Product chemistry is then examined as a function o...
10 Comparison of kinetic analysis of source rocks and kerogen concentrates1994-05-10Shales and kerogen concentrates from the Green River, Rundel, Ohio, Kimmeridge, and Phosphoria formations were examined by Pyromat II micropyrolysis and kinetic parameters were determined by the shift-in-Tm a x , discrete distribution, modified Friedman, and modified Coats-Redfern methods. Overall, ...

12 Underground coal thermal treatment - Task 6 topical report, Utah Clean Coal Program - Reporting Period: October 2009 - September 20112012-01-11SNG; substitute natural gas; coal pyrolysis; in-situ; underground coal thermal treatment; UCTT; Geochemists Workbench; GWBThe long-term objective of this work is to develop a transformational energy production technology by in-situ thermal treatment of a coal seam for the production of substitute natural gas (SNG) while leaving much of the coal's carbon in the ground. This process converts coal to a high-efficiency, lo...
13 Occurrence, properties, and uses of some natural bitumens1961Natural bitumens; Hydrocarbon; Cannel coals; TorbanitesIn this report, the Federal Bureau of Mines presents a summary of the occurrence, properties, and uses of some natural bitumens, using the layman's or dictionary definition of bitumens - that is, naturally occurring hydrocarbons. Emphasis is on the less common solid and semisolid bitumens, particula...
14 APPENDIX G - Detailed study of shale pyrolysis for oil production - A subpart of project oil shale pyrolysis and in situ modeling - Final Project Report - Reporting period: June 21, 2006 to October 21, 20092009-04-21Oil production; Shale assessmentThe oil shale industry is going through a revolution of sorts. After the oil crisis in the 1970s, a great deal of effort was spent on research and development and on pilot scale technologies. Extensive research was conducted with on-surface and in-situ production methods. Even though some large pilo...
15 Directory of State of Utah statistics 19711971-09The Directory of State of Utah Statistics has been developed in response to the need for a fairly comprehensive guide to statistical information published by the State. The Directory is intended to fulfill two objectives. The first and major objective is to make available to policy makers, planners ...
16 Assessment of research needs for oil recovery from heavy-oil sources and tar sands1982-03The Fossil Energy Research Working Group (FERWG), at the request of J. W. Mares (Assistant Secretary for Fossil Energy) and A. W. Trivelpiece (Director, Office of Energy Research), has reviewed and evaluated the U.S. programs on oil recovery from heavy oil sources and tar sands. These studies were p...
17 Urban planning tools for quality growth2000Formed in January of 1997, Envision Utah is a public/private community partnership dedicated to studying the effects of long-term growth in the Greater Wasatch Area of northern Utah.

18 Combustion of municipal solid wastes with oil shale in a circulating fluidized bed1996-06-30The authors of this report have invented an integrated process for the treatment of municipal solid waste (MSW). In this process, after recycling steps to save usable materials such as aluminum, other metals, and glass have been completed, the resulting refusederived fuel (RDF) is co-combusted with ...
19 Model codes and analysis tools for quality growthThe following ordinance is designed as an OVERLAY zone for sensitive areas. It depends on a map, adopted as a zoning overlay map, that identifies the approximate areas where the sensitive lands will be located. The areas are described in this workbook. For the methods and sources of data that may be...
