Overview

The nomenclature of petroleum geochemistry is complex and a source of much confusion for those who have to interpret and apply the results of geochemical investigations. This glossary provides easy access to the basic geochemical terminology so that geoscientists and managers in the petroleum industry can more readily communicate with geochemists and interpret the geochemical literature. The first part of the book provides a summary in the form of tables and diagrams which provides a simple overview of many aspects of geochemistry. The main part gives self-contained explanations of the most common terms used. Numerous illustrations are included, as are references for further reading. The author's aim is to improve communication between the practitioners of petroleum geochemistry and those who use the results of their work.
