Seismic reflection survey being conducted in Saudi Arabia, circa 1960.A controlled explosion generates seismic waves that are detected by geophones.. Visible surface features such as oil seeps, natural gas seeps, pockmarks (underwater craters caused by escaping gas) provide basic evidence of hydrocarbon generation (be it shallow or deep in the Earth).
Isopach map showing true stratigraphic thickness of Holocene sediments deposited offshore of Pacifica, California. An isopach map (/ ˈ aɪ s oʊ p æ k /) illustrates thickness variations within a tabular unit, layer or stratum.
Total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) is a term used for any mixture of hydrocarbons that are found in crude oil. There are several hundred of these compounds, but not all occur in any one sample.
Schematic unconventional reservoir classification expressed as fluid energy vs flow potential based on initials without stimulation. Unconventional (oil and gas) reservoirs, or unconventional resources (resource plays) are accumulations where oil and gas phases are tightly bound to the rock fabric by strong capillary forces, requiring specialized measures for evaluation and extraction.
Proven oil reserves in Iran, according to its government, rank fourth largest in the world at approximately as of 2013, although it ranks third if Canadian reserves of unconventional oil are excluded. [1]

A comparison between the five platonic solids and the corresponding three platonic hydrocarbons. In organic chemistry, a Platonic hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon whose structure matches one of the five Platonic solids, with carbon atoms replacing its vertices, carbon–carbon bonds replacing its edges, and hydrogen atoms as needed.
