Abstract
An analytical method involving computerized gas Chromatographic mass spectrometric “Multiple Ion Cross Scan” technique has been developed for the study of chemical transformations in the biodegradation of crude oils. The technique has been employed in the study of the bitumens of the Alberta oil sands. Comparison of results from the in vitro simulation experiments with those from field samples of Alberta Lower Cretaceous oils and oil sands suggests that the Alberta oil sand bitumens have arisen from the biodegradation of conventional crude oils.
