Micropaleontology in Petroleum Exploration
One of the aims of micropaleontological studies is to unravel the geological history of the surface of the earth in a manner that can be achieved as reliably, in relatively quick time and at the same time be economically be reasonable. Oil companies, who invest hugely in this high risk business of oil exploration, have undoubtedly gained much from micropaleontological studies. This is because o...
متن کامل14. Oxygen Isotope and Sapropel Stratigraphy in the Eastern Mediterranean
Stable oxygen isotope data from four holes drilled at the Ocean Drilling Program Site 967, which is located on the lower northern slope of the Eratosthenes Seamount, provide a continuous record of Eastern Mediterranean surface-water conditions during the last 3.2 Ma. A high-resolution stratigraphy for the Pliocene–Pleistocene sequence was established by using a combination of astronomical calib...
متن کاملEstimating strategic interactions in petroleum exploration
When individual petroleum-producing firms make their exploration decisions, information externalities and extraction externalities may lead them to interact strategically with their neighbors. If they do occur, strategic interactions in exploration would lead to a loss in both firm profit and government royalty revenue. Since these strategic interactions would be inefficient, changes in the gov...
متن کاملLead Isotope Characterization of Petroleum Fuels in Taipei, Taiwan
Leaded gasoline in Taiwan was gradually phased out from 1983 to 2000. However, it is unclear whether unleaded gasoline still contributes to atmospheric lead (Pb) exposure in urban areas. In this study, Pb isotopic compositions of unleaded gasolines, with octane numbers of 92, 95, 98, and diesel from two local suppliers in Taipei were determined by multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass...
متن کاملCompound-Specific Sulfur Isotope Analysis of Petroleum Gases.
We describe a simple, sensitive, and robust method for sulfur isotope ratio (34S/32S) analysis of ppm-level organic sulfur compounds (OSCs) in the presence of percent-level H2S. The method uses a gas chromatograph (GC) coupled with a multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (MC-ICPMS). The GC, equipped with a gas inlet and a valve that transfers the H2S to a thermal conductiv...
