Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and maturity level (Tmax) for any source rock considered to be the key parameters for evaluating its potentiality. The TOC and Tmax are estimated mainly by analyzing core samples or cuttings using the common nonfilter acidification combustion and pyrolysis, both methods ar...
