Prediction of Total Organic Carbon in Organic-Rich Shale Rocks Using Thermal Neutron Parameters.

Total organic carbon (TOC) content is one of the crucial parameters that determine the value of the source rock. The TOC content gives important indications about the source rocks and hydrocarbon volume. Various techniques have been utilized for TOC quantification, either by geochemical analysis of source rocks in laboratories or using well logs to develop mathematical correlations and advanced machine learning models.
