Code and data to reproduce the figures included in the manuscript

A thermal-maturation dependent elastic rock physics template for organic-rich mudrocks: Construction, sensitivity analysis, and practicalities

This repository contains all the required code and data to reproduce all the figures illustrated in the manuscript "A thermal-maturation dependent elastic rock physics template for organic-rich mudrocks: Construction, sensitivity analysis, and practicalities".

What is included

• A dataset for one well used as a case study
• Shape files for the well location
• Rock physics and petroleum modeleing related re-usable functions for modeling organic-rich mudrocks
• Specific scripts to reproduce all the figures included in the manuscript

External tools used (included in the folder already)

• Stanford SRB Toolbox: perform some rock physics functions (https://github.com/StanfordRockPhysics/SRBDRP_Toolbox)
• TernPlot: For plotting ternariy diagrams (https://github.com/alchemyst/ternplot)
• DGSA: for senstivity analysis (https://github.com/SCRFpublic/DGSA)
