26 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...
27 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...

29 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 ...
30 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...

33 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, ...
34 Control of geological carbon sequestration in the western United States2011-05coal; carbon dioxide; electric utilities; carbon sequestration; sequestration; geological sequestration; climate changeIn the near future, the use of coal may be legally restricted due to concerns over the effects of its combustion on atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations. Carbon capture and geologic sequestration offer one method to reduce carbon emissions from coal and other hydrocarbon fuel. While the federal...

37 Research investigations in oil shale, tar sand, coal research, advanced exploratory process technology, and advanced fuels research: Volume 1--base program1994-05oil shale; tar sand; coal research; dvanced exploratory process technology; advanced fuels research; COMPCOALThis report summarizes the major research investigations conducted by the Western Research Institute under Cooperative Agreement DE-FC21-86MC11076 with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) over the period October 1986 through September 1993. In 1989 a Jointly Sponsored Research Program (JSRP) was inc...
38 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...

40 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...
41 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...
42 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 ...
