<strong>Abstract </strong>This research work examined the contamination/pollution of the surface water and sediments of Kolo Creek by total petroleum hydrocarbons in the months of December, February, April and June. The concentration of the total petroleum hydrocarbons in the different months was determined by Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization Detector with Agilent 7820A model, after the samples have been extracted through the use of Dichloromethane followed by column chromatography clean-up. The concentration of the total petroleum hydrocarbons in the surface water of the Kolo Creek varied

<strong>Abstract </strong>Surface water and sediment samples were randomly collected from three different stations in Kolo Creek for total petroleum hydrocarbons assay. The concentrations of total petroleum hydrocarbons in the creek were determined by gas chromatography-flame ionization detector after the samples have passed through extraction procedures using dichloromethane and Soxhlet apparatus and necessary clean-up. The contamination levels of total petroleum hydrocarbons in the surface water of the creek in the stations were 13.669±2.4027, 12.748±1.3306, and 18.335±3

Large-scale and small-scale spilt oil is as old as exploration activities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. There is a need to provide the exposure, geochemical and spatial characteristics in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria because of the effects of the spilt oil on the communities and the environment. Some of the spilt oil-disaster impacts for exposed communities include psychological effects and socio-demographic characteristics.

Abstract:

2012 was a pivotal year for Australian petroleum development and production, during a dynamic time in our region, and globally. Australian activity headlines are LNG, the continuing pace and scale of the development of major projects, and record national petroleum production. LNG development in Australia is proceeding apace, with seven sanctioned projects under construction in WA and Queensland. The scale of the major projects underway is being felt with competition for skills, materials and services driving cost inflationary pressures and, coupled with other factors—such as an historically hi

Abstract:

An unknown sedimentary sequence was first recorded during a Geoscience Australia/ Geological Survey of Queensland/ pmd*CRC deep seismic reflection survey in the Mount Isa Inlier and adjacent undercover terrains, during 2006/07. The sequence occurs unconformably underneath the Carpentaria Basin succession in the Julia Creek area, east of Cloncurry in north Queensland, and is named the Millungera Basin. A section through the basin is recorded along seismic line 07GA–IG1, recorded between north of Cloncurry to east of Croydon. In this section three internal sequences are noted—with two strongly r

Abstract:

Petroleum spill into aquatic environment is a regular occurrence in the Niger Delta. Total petroleum hydrocarbon accumulation in Gills and muscle tissue of Tilapia spp from Kolo Creek has been analysed. The Tilapia fish samples were collected from the Kolo creek water, prepared and spectroscopically analysed at 420nm with spectronic 21D spectrophotometer. The measurement values were based on dry weight of the fish samples. The mean values of total petroleum hydrocarbon concentration recorded from tilapia gills analysis ranged between 6,140.387812.05 and 16,51718209.90mg/kg. The values record

Water resource contamination is a major concern in several regions, especially in the Niger Delta, in which the oil exploration activities pose serious risks to human health, water resource and the environment. This present study evaluates the properties of surface water in Nembe Creek. Surface water samples were collected from three (3) control stations and twenty-four (24) sampling stations around the creek during the wet and dry seasons. The samples were subjected to analysis following the standard operating procedures of ASTM and APHA analytical methods. The relationship between the parame

Abstract:

Unconventional energy sources have become increasingly important to the global energy mix. These include coal seam gas, shale gas and shale oil. The unconventional gas industry was pioneered in the United States and embraced following the first oil shock in 1973 (Rogers). As has been the case with many global resources (Hiscock), many of the same companies that worked in the USA carried their experience in this industry to early Australian explorations. Recently the USA has secured significant energy security with the development of unconventional energy deposits such as the Marcellus shale ga
