• primarily derived from the remains of once living organisms
• most deposits formed some 500-200 million years ago
• the three major fossil fuels are coal, oil and natural gas
• currently consumed at a rate faster than produced
• very likely that fossil fuels will be depleted - the question is when?
• large resources in tar sands and oil shales
Petroleum and Fossil EnergyPetroleum and Fossil Energy

• radiant energy – the sun is the ultimate energy source
• chlorophyll – converts sunlight into carbohydrates by combining radiant energy, cabon dioxide (CO2 ) and water (H2 O), to produce oxygen (O2 ) and carbohydrates
• important in carbon and oxygen cycles.

Genesis of Fossil FuelsGenesis of Fossil Fuels
• Comprised of the organic (carbon-based) remnants of ancient life• anaerobic bacteria primarily responsible for breaking broke down complex
organic remains into hydrocarbon molecules - molecules of carbon and hydrogen
• Pressure and heat applied to the sediment within which organic remains are buried, and degrade (crack) the hydrocarbons into an array of molecules of various sizes. that are useful as fuel products
Plant remains + bacteria + pressure + temperature + time = hydrocarbons
48 7
• Coal: carbonized remains of freshwater plants – swamps
•Kerogen: precursor to oil & gas, oil shale contains kerogen not oil
• Oil: saltwater algae (high in H)
• Gas: mostly methane (CH4 ) and ethane (C2 H6 )

The types of coal reflect the extent of biotic and thermal processing
• peat - compressed plant remains (e.g. bogs) < few thousand BTU/lb
• lignite – some plant remains < 8,300 BTU/lb, 50-55% carbon
• sub-bituminous 8,300 - 11,500 BTU/lb, 55-60% carbon
• bituminous 11,500 - 14,000 BTU/lb, 60-85% carbon
• anthracite >14,000 BTU/lb, 85-98% carbon
• graphite – pure carbon

CoalificationCoalification
48 10
Coalification of plant debris buried at the bottom of a swamp include:
1. Aerobic decay: In the first few centimeters, active aerobic bacterial decay reduces by as much as 50%. Because the water is stagnant and the peat is almost impermeable, the bacteria soon use up all the available oxygen and die ending the first stage.
2. Anaerobic decay: Bacteria that require no oxygen continue the decay process reducing the volume further. Decay produces acids and pH decreases throughout stage one and two. When the pH get to about 4.0 it anaerobic bacteria die off. At this point the peat has changed into a black, cheesy, gel-like material. It is this material that will eventually be changed into a coal seam.
3. Bituminization: Thermal processes now finish the metamorphisis during burial of the peat by at least two or three thousand feet of sediment depending on the geothermal gradient. Once the temperature reaches 100º C chemical reactions drive off water, oxygen and hydrogen which raises the percentage of carbon. The degree to which the bituminization goes determines the coal rank.

Coal ReservesCoal Reserves
• reserves 1.1 trillion tons (100’s or 1000’s of years)
• global production over £100 billion in 2000
• only 20-50% of seam recoverable in many areas
• high (3% S) vs low sulfur (< 1% S) coal
• Borneo coal (50+m thick, near surface, 0.06% S)

Petroleum originates from alteration and heating of organic matter
Diagenesisambient up to ~ 50 Cbacterial decay, oxidation, dehydrationH2 O, CO2 and CH4 are expelledproduces kerogen or its precuror, humin
Catagenesis~ 50 to 250 Coil generation begins at 50 to 60 C and peaks at ~ 130 Cgas generation ~ 150 to 250 Cthermal cracking

OxygenOxygen--rich (rich (oxicoxic) ) vsvs OxygenOxygen--poor (anoxic) Waterpoor (anoxic) Water
Oxic
• most organic matter is consumed by biota in the water columnCH2 O + O2 = CO2 + H2 O
• much of the organic matter that reaches the floor is consumed by benthic organisms• accumulation and preservation a function of sedimentation rate• generally poor source sediments (H-poor, gas-prone)
Anoxic
• where the water column is stratified (e.g. temperature), bottom waters may become depleted in oxygen• organic matter in oxygen-poor water degraded by less efficient anaerobes• more organic matter sinks to the floor, where benthic critters are absent• black muds and shales (H and lipid-rich, oil prone)

Migration and Trapping PetroleumMigration and Trapping Petroleum• Primary migration: expulsion of petroleum from source rock into permeable carrier bed• Secondary migration: flow of petroleum within the carrier bed and into a trap• Tertiary migration: subsequent movement after intial trapping

• The seismic tools commonly used in the oil and gas industry are 2-D and 3-D seismic data
• Seismic data are used to:– Define and map structural folds and faults– Identify stratigraphic variations and map sedimentary
facies– Infer the presence of hydrocarbons

• The “4” in 4-D seismic is time• A 4-D survey means that at least two 3-D seismic
surveys have been made at different times over the same field
• Reflection character (attributes) change through time
• These changes result from migration of the water contact in the reservoir

•• Primary Recovery:Primary Recovery: uses only the natural energy of the reservoir – typically recovers up to 50% of reservoir oil (average ~ 20%)
•• Secondary Recovery:Secondary Recovery: involves adding energy to the reservoir by injecting water to maintain pressure and displace the oil – typically recovers about 25-45% after primary recovery (average ~ 30%)
•• Tertiary Recovery:Tertiary Recovery: other methods can recover an additional 15 – 20% of oil after primary and secondary recovery
