Abstract
On the other hand, the biomarker distributions of the oils samples and source rocks assess a Silurian “Hot shale” that is the source rock feeding the Acacus reservoir. The biomarker distribution is characterized by high tricyclic terpanes contents compared to hopanes for the Silurian source rock and the two crude oils. This result is also confirmed by the dendrogram that precludes the Devonian source rocks as a source rock in the study area.
