Abstract
Provided are methods of estimating a volume of a biogenic gas for an area of interest. The method includes predicting a methanogenesis rate for one or more of the periods of time for the area of interest based on energy available for microbial activity and calculating the volume of the biogenic gas based on the predicted methanogenesis rate for the one or more of the periods of time for the area of interest.
