Abstract

In this work, measurements of activity concentration of naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) isotopes and their related hazard indices for several materials such as crude oil, sludge and water in Ahdeb oil fields in Waste governorate using high pure germanium coaxial detection technique. The average values for crude oil samples were174.72Bq/l, 43.46Bq/l, 355.07Bq/l, 264.21Bq/l, 122.52nGy/h, 0.7138, 1.1861, 0.601 mSv/y, 0.1503mSv/y and 1.8361 for Ra-226, Ac-228, K-40, Ra eq, D, H-external and H-internal respectively. According to the results; the ratio between 238U to 232Th was 4, which represents the natural ratio in the crust earth; therefore, one can be strongly suggested that the geo-stricture of the Ahdeb oil fields dose not contents any kind of rocks. Although the results indicate the rising in the activity concentration of NORM isotopes, the national and international comparisons proved that it is still in the world range limits.

Highlights

  • Occurring radio nuclides are present at varying concentrations in the earth’s crust and can be concentrated and enhanced by processes associated with the recovery of oil and gas

  • The results Published: Sep. 2015 indicate the rising in the activity concentration of NORM isotopes, the national and international comparisons proved that it is still in the world range limits

  • Materials) can be created when industrial activity increases the concentrations of radioactive materials or when the material is redistributed as a result of human intervention or some industrial processes, TENORM can be the by-product or waste product of oil, gas and geothermal energy production
