Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for exploitation of a sedimentary basin. Exploitation of the sedimentary basin is permitted by the choice of zones of interest within the basin, the zones being determined by use of maps of total organic carbon TOC and of hydrogen index HI of at least one sedimentary layer. According to the invention, the maps of total organic carbon TOC and of hydrogen index HI are obtained taking into account the current values of TOCA(W) and HIA(W) at the level of the well and taking into account the maps of bathymetry BM and of sedimentation rate SM.
