This research presents the results of experimental study on the thermal investigation of Seyitomer oil shale sample. Thermogravimetry (TG/DTG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to determine the thermal behaviour of the oil shale sample. From the experiments and kinetic analysis, it was observed that Seyitomer oil shale sample have more than one reaction region where the activation energies of the first region are higher. Higher heating rates resulted in higher reaction temperatures both in DSC and TG/DTG experiments.
