Det här examensarbetet ger en översikt över organiskt material (kerogen) i Jordens yngre lagrade berggrund och hur detta material omvandlats till olja och naturgas genom olika geologiska processer. De viktigaste är tryck, temperatur och tid. Med fortskridande sedimentpålagring förs det organiskt rika sedimenten successivt ned på större djup, där de genomgår en så kallad mognadsprocess till följd aThe origin, composition and maturity of kerogen, and its conversion to petroleum is reviewed. Various methods for estimating the maximum temperature to which kerogen and potential source rocks were subjected are also reviewed. Several kerogen maturation parameters can be distinguished and grouped into two categories: chemical paleothermometres and biological paleothermometres. Biological paleother
