Difference between Petroleum and Petroleum geology

Petroleum vs. Petroleum geology

Petroleum is a naturally occurring, yellow-to-black liquid found in geological formations beneath the Earth's surface. Petroleum geology is the study of origin, occurrence, movement, accumulation, and exploration of hydrocarbon fuels.

Similarities between Petroleum and Petroleum geology

Petroleum and Petroleum geology have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Fossil fuel, Geochemistry, Hydrocarbon, Hydrocarbon exploration, Kerogen, Oil well, Permeability (earth sciences), Porosity, Seismology, Source rock.

Fossil fuel

A fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.

Geochemistry

Geochemistry is the science that uses the tools and principles of chemistry to explain the mechanisms behind major geological systems such as the Earth's crust and its oceans.

Hydrocarbon

In organic chemistry, a hydrocarbon is an organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon.

Hydrocarbon exploration

Hydrocarbon exploration (or oil and gas exploration) is the search by petroleum geologists and geophysicists for hydrocarbon deposits beneath the Earth's surface, such as oil and natural gas.

Oil well

An oil well is a boring in the Earth that is designed to bring petroleum oil hydrocarbons to the surface.

Permeability (earth sciences)

Permeability in fluid mechanics and the earth sciences (commonly symbolized as κ, or k) is a measure of the ability of a porous material (often, a rock or an unconsolidated material) to allow fluids to pass through it.

Porosity

Porosity or void fraction is a measure of the void (i.e. "empty") spaces in a material, and is a fraction of the volume of voids over the total volume, between 0 and 1, or as a percentage between 0% and 100%.

Seismology

Seismology (from Ancient Greek σεισμός (seismós) meaning "earthquake" and -λογία (-logía) meaning "study of") is the scientific study of earthquakes and the propagation of elastic waves through the Earth or through other planet-like bodies.

Source rock

In petroleum geology, source rock refers to rocks from which hydrocarbons have been generated or are capable of being generated.
