Material properties of Green River oil shale

A compilation of material property data on Green River (Piceance Basin) oil shale is presented. While this report is not intended to be a comprehensive review of the literature, it is intended to provide a baseline of data to support various thermomechanical modeling efforts in progress at Sandia National Laboratories. The data, presented in tabular form, are divided into three categories: elastic properties, failure properties and thermal properties. Within each category, the data are listed by kerogen content and test condition (confining pressure, temperature, etc.). Summaries of some of the important features of the elastic and failure properties of oil shale are presented in graphical form.
