Abstract
Clumped isotopes geothermometry was applied to two dolomitic hydrocarbon reservoirs. Results indicate that late burial dolomitization occurred at ∼110°C in the Albian Pinda dolostone (offshore Angola) and ∼90°C in the Mano-Meillon dolostone (Aquitaine Basin, France), and did not continue on during subsequent burial/thermal evolution to present-day conditions (150-160°C). This study illustrates the great potential of the clumped isotopes approach to help unravel dolomitization processes in hydrocarbon reservoirs.
