Description
Oil and gas seeps occur when hydrocarbons migrate from deep reservoirs to the surface through fractures, faults, or porous rocks. These seeps can be found on land or in offshore environments. Their analysis involves chemical fingerprinting, where molecular and isotopic compositions are examined to determine the source rock type, thermal maturity, and potential reservoir characteristics. Advanced techniques, such as infrared satellite imaging and synthetic aperture radar (SAR), are used for offshore seep detection. Seeps provide critical insights into active petroleum systems, confirming hydrocarbon presence without the need for costly exploratory drilling.
