Assessment of shale gas potential of Paleozoic shales from Western Peninsular Malaysia
Gas extraction through a specific shale formation mostly relies on its gas storage capacity. In unconventional system i.e., shale gas, gas is largely stored in the pores spaces and adsorbed on the surface of mineral and organic matter particle. Thus, sorption properties along with mineralogical and...

Gas extraction through a specific shale formation mostly relies on its gas storage capacity.

Paleozoic black shale-bearing formations are widespread in WP Malaysia.
