METHODS OF ANALYSIS APPLIED TO HYDROCARBON SEEPAGE IN SOUTHEASTERN REGION OF ANATOLIA (TURKEY) AND THEIR INTERPRETATION
Abstract
In the context of this study, 19 Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES), 17 Total Organic Ca rbon(TOC) and Rock Eval Pyrolysis, 8 Thin Layer Chromatography, Extraction and Column Chromatography, 16 Gas Chromatography (GC),15 Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry(GC-MS), 8 Stable Carbon Isotope Analysis(GC-IRMS) were performed with solid samples of Hydrocarbon Seepage from 7 provinces (Adiyaman, Batman, Diyarbakir, Kilis, Mardin, Siirt, Ећirnak) in Southeastern Region of Anatolia of Turkey. Metals of Fe, Al, Mn, Zn, V, B, Pb, Ni, Hg, Cu, Cd, Co were detect ed with Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) analysis. Hydrocarbon Potential of the samples was intended to be proven in the results of TOC and Rock Eval Pyrolysis Analysis. In the results taken from GC and GC-MS analysis, data was acquired about general distribution of Hydrocarbon, organic substance type, maturation and sedimentation medium. In the light of the results obtained, it was intended to prove the hydrocarbon mechanisms, formation and potentials of th e samples mentioned in addition to the Geological Environment they exist.
