Density vs. Kerogen<br />
Lab data (Vernik and Landis, 1996), plotted as bulk density vs. kerogen volume, from samples <strong>of</strong> Bakken shale.<br />
The four sets <strong>of</strong> lines are labeled with the assumed kerogen density, ranging from 1.0-1.6 g/cm 3 . The four black<br />
lines assume the measured porosity ~0.01, and oil in the pores. The dashed red lines assume the porosity is zero.<br />
The dashed blue lines assume that the porosity is saturated with gas.<br />
