Abstract

Hidrokarbon birikimleri ile ilişkide olan
veya hidrokarbonlar tarafından kirletilmiş yüzey ve yeraltısuları tipik olarak
yüksek miktarda hidrokarbon içerirler. Su numunelerinde TPH (Toplam Petrol
Hidrokarbonları) değeri, yüzey ve yeraltısularının hidrokarbon kirliliğini
belirlemek için kullanılan önemli bir parametredir. Bu çalışmada, suların
hidrokarbon içeriğini tanımlayan TPH (toplam petrol hidrokarbonları)
analizlerinin, petrol ve doğalgaz aramacılığında kullanılabilirliğinin incelenmesi
amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla, Yüksekova (Hakkari), Ulukışla (Niğde) ve Hasanoğlan
(Ankara) bölgeleri yeraltısularında yapılan TPH analizlerine ait sonuçlar, aynı
bölgedeki klasik petrol jeokimyası analiz sonuçları ile karşılaştırılmıştır.
İncelenen su numunelerinin tamamının TPH değerlerinin yeraltısuları için
önerilen sınır değerden oldukça yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca, her üç bölge
sularında da olgun doğal petrol kaynaklı n-alkan hidrokarbonları tespit
edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, numune alma işlemi oldukça basit,
laboratuvar analizleri de çok kısa sürede sonuçlandırılan, düşük
maliyetli, güvenilir ve tutarlı sonuçları olan rezervuar hedefli suda
TPH (Toplam Petrol Hidrokarbonları) analizleri ile petrol ve doğalgaz
birikimleri içeren havzaların belirlenebileceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Diğer
jeolojik ve jeofizik yöntemler ile birlikte kullanılması durumunda da,
hidrokarbon arama riskini en aza indirmek ve ticari üretim yapılabilir yeni
petrol ve doğalgaz yataklarının keşfedilebilmesi için pratik ve etkili bir araç
olarak kullanılabilecektir. Ayrıca, sonuçlarının kontrol edilebilir ve kolay
tekrarlanabilir olması nedeniyle, arama risk ve maliyetlerini büyük ölçüde
azaltacağı düşünülmektedir.

USAGE OF TPH (TOTAL PETROLEUM HYDROCARBONS) IN WATER ANALYSIS FOR OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION: FIRST IMPORTANT RESULTS FROM TURKEY

Abstract

Surface waters and groundwaters associated with hydrocarbon accumulations or contaminated by hydrocarbons typically contain high amounts of hydrocarbons. TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons) value in water samples is an important parameter used to determine hydrocarbon contamination of surface waters and groundwaters. In this study, it is aimed to examine TPH analysis which describe the hydrocarbon content of waters in oil and gas exploration. For this purpose, the results of TPH analysis in water samples of Yüksekova (Hakkari), Ulukışla (Niğde) and Hasanoğlan (Ankara) regions are compared with the results of classical petroleum geochemistry analysis in the same regions. It has been found that the TPH values of all examined water samples are considerably higher than the recommended limit values for groundwaters. In addition, petrogenic (natural crude oil) mature n-alkane hydrocarbons have been determined in all three regional waters. As a result of the study, the sampling is very simple and the laboratory analysis have reached TPH in water analysis in reservoir-targeted with low cost, reliable and consistent results, which can be concluded in a very short time and the result that the basins containing oil and gas deposits can be determined. When used in together with other geological and geophysical exploration methods, it can also be used as a practical and effective tool to minimize the risk of hydrocarbon exploration and to discover new oil and gas deposits that are commercial production. In addition, all the petroleum geochemical analysis (gas chromatography, gas chromatography, mass spectroscopy, pyrolysis, etc.) on rock samples can also be applied successfully on hydrocarbon containing water samples.
