ABSTRACT
surface geochemical detection of microseeps has gained
credibility as a viable petroleum exploration tool. Traces of organic compounds measured
in the near-surface
sediments provide a rapid and inexpensive method for diagnosing the
probable hydrocarbon content of potential trapping features that have been delineated in
the subsurface by seismic methods.
