Utilizing Noble Gas Geochemistry to Trace Hydrocarbon and Fluid Migration in the Northern Appalachian Basin

Unconventional gas accumulations within the northern Appalachian Basin have become economically viable energy resources in the United States, largely due to recent advances in drilling technologies. While horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing have significantly improved the recoverability of...
