Abstract

Bu çalışmada, iyotça zengin yüzey ve yeraltı sularının
oluşum mekanizmaları ve iyotça zengin sular ile petrol sistemleri arasındaki
ilişki incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla, iyotça zengin yüzey ve yeraltı sularına ait
yayınlanmış hidrojeokimyasal verileri bulunan Batı Hazar (Azerbaycan), Doğu
Hazar (Türkmenistan), Sacramento (ABD), Po (İtalya) ve Joban - Hamadori
(Japonya) petrollü havzaları seçilmiştir. Petrol ve doğalgaz yatakları içeren bu havzaların
yüzey ve yeraltı sularındaki iyot zenginleşmesinin sebebi, derinlerdeki petrol
ve doğalgaz yataklarından tektonik, volkanik ve diğer jeolojik olaylar etkisi
ile yüzeye ve yüzeye yakın bölümlere göç eden iyotça zengin
rezervuar suları ve hidrokarbonlardır. İncelenen petrollü havzalardaki soğuk ve sıcak yüzey ve yeraltı sularındaki
iyot, petrol ve doğalgaz sahası sularındaki iyot ile aynı kökenlidir ve organik
maddece zengin kayaçlardan türemiştir. Dolayısıyla,
incelenen petrollü havzaların jeolojik ve hidrojeokimyasal verileri, iyotça
zengin yüzey ve yeraltı suları (bu sular, aynı zamanda petrol
hidrokarbonlarınca da zengindir) ile petrol sistemleri arasındaki yakın
ilişkiyi kanıtlamaktadır. Bu yakın ilişki, soğuk ve
sıcak yüzey ve yeraltı sularında yapılacak iyot analizleri ile petrol ve
doğalgaz potansiyeli bilinmeyen bir havzanın potansiyelinin değerlendirilebileceğini
göstermektedir. Bu
ilişki, gelecek arama hedeflerinin belirlenmesi açısından da önemlidir.

Occurrence Mechanisms of Iodine-rich Surface Waters and Groundwaters and Their Relations with Oil and Gas Deposits

Abstract

In this study, occurrence
mechanisms of iodine-rich surface waters and groundwaters and the relationship
between iodine-rich waters and petroleum systems were investigated. For this
purpose, Western Caspian (Azerbaijan), Eastern Caspian (Turkmenistan),
Sacramento (USA), Po (Italy) and Joban - Hamadori (Japan) petroliferous basins
with published hydrogeochemical data of iodine-rich surface waters and
groundwaters were selected. Iodine enrichment in the surface waters and
groundwaters of these basins, which contain oil and gas deposits, are
iodine-rich reservoir waters and hydrocarbons that migrate from the deep oil
and gas deposits to the surface and near the surface with the effect of
tectonic, volcanic and other geological events. Iodine in the surface waters
and groundwaters of investigated petroliferous basins are the same origin as
iodine in oilfield waters and derived from organic-rich rocks. Therefore, the
geological and hydrogeochemical data of investigated basins prove the close
relationship between iodine-rich surfaces and groundwaters (these waters are
also rich by petroleum hydrocarbons) and petroleum systems. This close
relationship shows that the potential of a basin with an unknown potential for
oil and gas can be evaluated by iodine analysis on the cold and hot surface waters
and groundwaters. This relationship is also important in terms of determining
future exploration targets.
