The Pulse Beneath the Golden Lane
The paper by Marcel Chin-A-Lien explores a multi-phase charge, migration, and alteration model for the Golden Lane Petroleum System in Suriname. It identifies distinct charge pulses from stacked AlbianโCenomanianโTuronian source rocks, accounting for coexisting oil and gas outcomes, and discusses implications for exploration and production strategies in the region.

A World-Class ACT Marine Source Rock System: Petroleum Systems and Exploration Implications for the GuyanaโSuriname Basin
Marcel Chin-A-Lien’s article examines the Upper Cretaceous marine source rocks of the Canje Formation in the GuyanaโSuriname Basin, asserting its classification as a key petroleum source system. The Canje Formation is linked genetically to prominent formations across northern South America, with exploration success reliant on factors like thermal maturity and migration rather than source rock…
