    Surface Geochemical Surveys for Hydrocarbon Detection

    Surface Geochemical Surveys for Hydrocarbon Detection Surface geochemical exploration for petroleum is the search for surface or near-surface occurrences of hydrocarbons and their alteration products. Services Basics of Hydrocarbon Microseepage The vast majority of oil/gas accumulations lose light hydrocarbons to the surface, producing a detectible surface geochemical expression. Prospects associated with such a geochemical anomaly…

    Hydrogen and Helium Surveys

    Surface Geochemical Surveys for Hydrogen and Helium Services Near-surface Hydrogen and Helium seepage occurs as microseepage and it is chemically detectable. Microseeping gases in the subsoil are part of the Interstitial gases or “soil gases”, those are gases and vapors that are present in the intergranular spaces of the subsoil. Defining Microseepage The search for…
