Oil-source and oil-oil correlations and the origin of the heavy oil and bitumen accumulations in Northern Alberta, Canada

Barry Bennett et al.

Summary: This study investigated the hydrocarbon compositions of potential source rock samples in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, revealing a strong correlation between oil sources and reservoir samples based on aromatic steroid hydrocarbon compounds. Age-diagnostic biomarkers were identified to distinguish Paleozoic versus Jurassic sources, highlighting a significant Jurassic contribution to the studied oil sands and calling for a reassessment of the petroleum systematics of the WCSB.
