The Non-Organic Theory of the Genesis of Petroleum
Abstract
Recent advances in interdisciplinary fields as diverse as astrophysics, cosmogeophysics, nuclear geology, etc. have led to interesting developments in the non-organic theory of the genesis of petroleum. This theory, which holds that petroleum is of an abiogenic primordial origin, provides an explanation for certain features of petroleum geology that are hard to explain within the standard organic framework. If the non-organic theory is correct, then hydrocarbon reserves would be enormous and almost inexhaustable.
