Maturity based on
vitrinite reflectance
Vitrinite reflectance as a tool to
assess thermal maturity
(Senftle and Landis, 1991)
Vitrinite showing fluorescence from cell walls. 1. T5809; Hole 1109D; 387.86
mbsf. Longitudinal section of wood preserved as telovitrinite. The cell lumens
are mostly filled with humic material, but the degree of compressions is
small and some parts of the lumens are open. Cell walls are much lower in
reflectance and are strongly fluorescing. Their reflectances are within the
range normally associated with liptinite, but they do not represent
suberinite. Reflectances of the cell walls are lower in the lower part of the
field, but the cell contents have relatively consistent reflectances across the
various tissue types (reflected light; field width = 0.22 mm; vitrinite
reflectance [cell contents] = 0.37%, [cell walls] = 0.12%).
Coal petrographers have used VR to study
coalification in detail for many decades.
Coal rank is determined by the mean maximum
reflectance of vitrinite.
VR has been successfully demonstrated as a
reliable indicator of organic maturation in
sedimentary rocks (Castano and Sparks, 1974).
Early work, VR is suggested being a maturity
measurement independent of kerogen
composition, organic facies, and depositional
processes (Stach et al., 1982).
More recent work has shown that this is not
always correct vitrinite is identified cautiously in
shales and other clastic sedimentary rocks (Jones
and Edison, 1979; Bostick, 1979; Price and
Barker, 1985).

HIo value can be computed from visual kerogen assessments and assigned
kerogen-type HIo average values using the following equation:
% type I % type II % type III % type IV
HIo = ----------- x 750 + ------------ x 450 + ------------- x 125 + ------------- x 50
100 100 100 100
For example: using certain shale that is 95% type II and 5% type III, the
calculated HIo would be 434 mg HC/g TOC.
• An example of VR suppression in
Williston Basin (Price dan Barker, 1985).
• VR suppression in the Bakken Shale is
given in the next figure.
• It seems that VR suppression in the
Bakken Shale is too high compared with
the regional VR trend.
• Suppressed to 0.8% from the regional
assumption of 2.2%.

EqVR = FAMM-derived equivalent vitrinite reflectance calibrated against Rmo%.
Rmo% = Mean vitrinite reflectance measured under oil immersion on randomly oriented phytoclasts in nonpolarised light.
n = Number of vitrinite reflectance readings; σ = standard deviation.
Readings taken from dispersed organic matter (DOM) and coal.
The ranges in EqVR are based on plotted positions of vitrinite data in relation to iso-EqVR lines on the FAMM diagrams
1
The degree of vitrinite reflectance suppression/enhancement is based on the position of the vitrinite data
points in relation to iso-correction curves superimposed on the fluorescence alteration diagram; minimal (0.0-
0.1%), moderate (>0.1-0.2%) and severe (>0.2%); enhancement shown in parentheses
