I) Sedimentary Organic Matter

This document contains multiple choice questions about petroleum geology and geophysics. It addresses topics like the origin of petroleum, types of organic matter that generate oil, biomarkers found in petroleum, factors that affect hydrocarbon generation potential, and instruments used to analyze organic matter in source rocks. Additional questions cover topics in petroleum engineering like reservoir properties, recovery factors, reserve estimates, and suitable candidates for thermal recovery. Further questions address topics in exploration geophysics including concepts like seismic aliasing, autocorrelation of wavelets, convolution in the time and frequency domains, and objectives of seismic deconvolution.
