Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illinois Oil Shales The investigation indicates that the oil shales are more likely to be of future significance than of immediate commercial importance. For many years attention has been directed to oil shales, especially those in Colorado, as potential sources of petroleum. The recent announce ment that the Union Oil Company is erecting a retort near Rifle, Colo., for the processing of an oil shale averaging 30 gallons per ton of recoverable shale oil (oil and Gas Jour., 1955) indicates the increasing significance of oil shales in areas affording a combination of suitable resources and favorable economic conditions. Certain Illinois shales have been known for some time to contain oil (worthen, 1870, p. 105; Ashley, 1917, p. 314 and 319; Winchester, 1919, p. 51; Barrett, 1922; Cox, 1914, p. 26 However, only a relatively few shales were tested, and the resulting data were incomplete or not comparable with current analytical data.

It seems fairly certain that the peak of the petroleum produc tion curve in the United States will be reached in a'fe-w years, but the curve of consumption will contine in its upward rise. To meet this situation, either imports must be increased in the future, or means must be found to utilize the immense oil-shale deposits of Colorado and other western states as a source of the needed oil.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Thermal Decomposition of Oil Shales: Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty, of Pure Science, Columbia University Inspissated petroleum - Little is known as to the origin or nature of kerogen or other organic material in the shale. That all of the organic or carbonaceous matter does not produce oil is known.7 E. H. Cunningham-craig attributes the origin of kerogen to inspissated or dried-up petroleum. He concludes that the oil shale stratum is a former oil-bearing formation which, under the action of heat, has evaporated and dried -up, leaving petroleum residues which have become insoluble by polymerization.4 Other authorities are not inclined to accept this theory, as they see no substantial evidence of petroleum having passed through the formation.
