TRP Minerals strives to empower every mineral owner with the best information so that they can make the best and most informed decision to create value from their minerals. Let us help you create lasting value today!
Porosity is the void spaces within a formation (rock) that can store oil, gas, condensates, and water.
Permeability is a measure of connectivity between void spaces (Porosity) and the ease with which the oil, gas, condensates, and water flow through the formation.
The concentration of organic material in source rock as represented by the percentage weight of organic carbon.
Thermal maturity is the extent of heat-driven reactions that alter the composition of organic matter (e.g., conversion of sedimentary organic matter to oil, gas, and condensates).
Porosity and Permeability are the key factors associated with how a well from your minerals will perform. TRP Minerals' team of experts evaluates porosity and permeability to understand the extent of the total oil and natural gas that can be produced.
Porosity is the void spaces within a formation (rock) that can store oil, gas, condensates, and water.
Ability of rock to transmit fluids or gas through pore spaces.
Porosity is where the oil or natural gas is stored within the formation. The higher the Porosity the higher volumes of oil and natural gas can exist within the formation. Permeability of the formation dictates how far and at what rate oil and naturals gas can move within the formation. The higher the permeability, the further and faster oil and natural gas can travel to enter the wellbore. Simply stated, the more permeability a formation has equates to higher rates of production and larger volumes based on the increased extent oil and natural gas can reach the wellbore.
High Porosity and Permeability are idea for an oil and gas reservoir. With ample pore space between the grains of minerals and micro fractures that allow fluids and gas to move freely, high porosity and high permeability formations allow for large production volumes at a faster rate.
Once a well is completed in the productive reservoir, oil and natural gas will migrate into the wellbore from a large areal extent with very little resistance. Reservoirs such as these, in many cases, do not need to be frac'd.
High Porosity and Permeable reservoirs can be amazingly economic however, there are very few of these productive reservoirs left within the onshore continental United States.
Medium Porosity and Permeable reservoirs are more common than high porosity and permeability reservoirs.
Once a well is completed in the productive reservoir, oil and natural gas will migrate into the wellbore from a large areal extent with some resistance. Reservoirs such as these might need small frac jobs to help mechanically create more permeability.
Medium Porosity and Permeable reservoirs can be amazingly economic however, there are very fewer of theses productive reservoirs left within the onshore continental United States.
Low Porosity and Permeability oil and gas reservoir are the most common reservoirs today. With limited pore space between the grains of minerals and micro fractures, fluids and gas to need help move freely from one point to the wellbore. Without modern completion techniques (frac'ing), these reservoirs would not produce enough oil or gas to be commercial.
Due to the low Porosity and Permeability of the reservoir, Operators must utilize modern frac'ing to commercially produce oil and gas.
Frac'ing a well is simply a mechanically method of creating permeability in a source rock.
The method of frac'ing is to pump large volumes of water and sand into the reservoir under high pressure. When the pressure in the reservoir reaches a high enough threshold, the rock will begin to fracture creating a web of tiny fissures throughout the rock.
These tiny fissures help increase the permeability of the reservoir and allows oil and gas to move faster and greater distances creating an economic well.

The concentration of organic material in source rock as represented by the percentage weight of organic carbon.
Total Organic Content is the ultimate potential of a source rock reservoir to create oil and natural gas. Without organic content, oil and natural gas cannot be created. As a result, the higher the TOC the higher volumes of oil and natural gas can form. An easy way to think of TOC is to visualize baking a cake. The TOC are the ingredients of the cake. The more ingredients you put in the cake recipe the larger the cake will be.
We focus on areas that we know best in order to provide the highest level of expertise.
Thermal maturity is the extent of heat-driven reactions that alter the composition of organic matter (e.g., conversion of sedimentary organic matter to oil, gas, and condensates).
Thermal Maturity was the ultimate pressure and temperature that the TOC received over a period of time in geologic history. With the appropriate pressure and temperature over a period of time, the Organic Content will react and change into oil, natural gas, and/or condensate. It should be noted that each oil, natural gas, and condensates for in specific windows of pressure and temperature. In our example of backing a cake, Thermal maturity would be the oven.
