A petroleum geologist is an occupation that involves all aspects of Hydrocarbon exploration oil discovery and production in the field of petroleum geology . Petroleum geologists are usually linked to the actual discovery of oil and the identification of possible Oil field oil deposits or leads. It can be a very labor intensive task involving several different fields of science and elaborate machinery. Petroleum geologists look at the structural and sedimentary aspects of the stratum strata to identify possible oil traps. Profile Petroleum geologists make the decision on where the location of drilling will occur. This is done by locating prospects within a sedimentary basin. Petroleum geologists determine a prospect s viability looking at seven main aspects, according to the orthodox view of petroleum exploration Source The presence of an organic rich source rock capable of generating hydrocarbon s during deep burial. Reservoir The porous rock unit that collects the hydrocarbons expelled from the source rock and holds them inside a trap. Seal The rock unit that inhibits the oil or gas from escaping vertically out of a hydrocarbon bearing reservoir rock . Trap Structural or stratigraphic feature that captures migrating hydrocarbons into an economically producible accumulation. Timing Geologic events must occur in a certain order e.g. that the trap formed before migration rather than after. Maturation The process of thermal maturing of a source rock, leading to the cracking of its organic matter into oil and gas. Migration The movement of the less dense oil or gas from the source rock into a reservoir rock and then into a trap. These seven key aspects allow the Petroleum geologist to obtain a 1 dimensional idea of the subsurface. Some other data may be obtained via Geophysical ... also abiogenic petroleum origin Geologist Petroleum industry External links http www.fossiloilandgas.com Category Science occupations Category Petroleum geologists ... more details

Petroleum geochemistry is the application of chemical principles to the study of the origin, migration, accumulation, and alteration of petroleum... John M. Hunt, 1979 . ref Hunt, J.M., 1979. Petroleum Geochemistry and Geology . Freeman, San Francisco ISBN 0716710056 ref Petroleum is generally considered oil and natural gas es having various compounds composed of primarily hydrogen and carbon. They are usually generated from the decomposition and or thermal maturation of organic matter . The organic matter originated from plant s and algae . The organic matter is deposited after the death of the plant in sediments , where after considerable time, heat, and pressure the compounds in the plants and algae are altered to oil, gas, and kerogen . Kerogen can be thought of as the remaining solid material of the plant. The sediment usually clay and or calcareous lime ooze, Lithification hardens during this Diagenesis alteration process into Rock geology rock ie. shale and or limestone . The shale or limestone rock containing the organic matter is called the source rock because it is the source, having generated the petroleum. In our quest to find more oil and gas, we use numerous petroleum Geochemistry geochemical techniques to 1 identify source rocks and determine the amount, type, and maturation level of the organic matter 2 evaluate the potential timing of petroleum migration from the source rock 3 assess the potential migration pathways and 4 correlate petroleum compounds found in reservoirs, leaks, and surface seeps to find new pools of petroleum. Some of the petroleum geochemical techniques used are stable isotope s hydrocarbon analysis fingerprinting of specific organic compounds biological organic markers with gas chromatography GC and gas chromatography mass spectrometry GC MS maturity indicators like vitrinite reflectance laboratory pyrolysis and analysis kerogen typing and other more exotic techniques.
