    Sigh. Why do people insist on perpetuating the

    myth that petroleum comes from dead plants and

    animals? The abiogenic origin of petroleum

    products is fairly established, and observable on

    other planets incapable of supporting life, yetwith vast quantities of methane. -- Jere

    Krischel, 2010

    From the analysis of a ketchup stain on

    a tie can not be concluded that the tie would

    be made from tomatoes.-- Peter Szatmari,

    geologist

    Two things are infinite: the universe and

    human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the

    universe. -- Albert Einstein, physicist,

    cosmologist

    New ideas in science are not always right justbecause they are new. Nor are the old ideas

    always wrong just because they are old. A

    critical attitude is clearly required of every

    scientist.-- Thomas Gold, astrophysicist,

    astronomer, cosmologist and geoscientist

    What they've been teaching us in school about

    oil coming from fossils is wrong. -- C. Warren

    Hunt, geologist

    Although the biogenic, organic model has been

    the one generally accepted by the petroleumindustry almost since its birth, abiogenic,

    inorganic models recurrently emerge, proposed

    by geologists and, more often, chemists.--

    Peter Szatmari, geologist, 2011

    The world is full of resources - the question ishow we can apply technology to make then

    energy resources.-- Robert Ryan, E&P

    manager, 2009

    Recent theoretical and experimental evidence

    demonstrates the possibility that hydrocarbons

    may have formed in the depths of the earth. If

    the theory is substantiated further, then oil-depletion becomes a myth and the industry must

    be ready to face the new challenges of drilling

    even deeper, to the basement rock, where huge

    oil fields may await to be discovered, as White

    Tiger in Vietnam has proved. -- V.C.

    Kelessidis, Sethptember 2009

    There is no doubt that our research proves that

    crude oil and natural gas are generated without

    the involvement of fossils. All types of bedrock

    can serve as reservoirs of oil.-- Vladimir A.Kutcherov, geologist, September 2009

    In the coal is found well preserved fossils of

    plants and animals, including saber-toothed

    tigers. It is thought that the coal was originally a

    thin liquid that surrounded and hardened

    around the fossils. So the fact that coal containsfossils does not necessarily mean that it is a

    fossil fuel.-- M. Ragheb, nuclear physicist,2009

    ...our planet may have enormous, inexhaustible

    resources of hydrocarbons.-- Vladimir A.Kutcherov, geologist, August 2009

    We demonstrated the chemical transformation

    of methane to heavier saturated hydrocarbons

    such as ethane, butane and propane and itsreversibility under the conditions of the upper

    Earth's mantle. -- Alexander Goncharov,geologist, August 2009

    All major oil and gas provinces in the world are

    apparently associated with transtensive tectonicconditions, supporting the abiogenic theory of

    petroleum.-- Karsten M. Storetvedt,geophysicist, August 2008

    The modern theory of the abiotic deep

    petroleum origins recognizes that petroleum is aprimordial material of deep origin which has

    been erupted into the crust of the Earth. In

    short, petroleum is not a 'fossil fuel' and has no

    intrinsic connection with any biological detritus

    'in the sediments'.--Vladimir A. Kutcherov,geologist, August 2008

    Ultra deep wells bring a range

    of unexpectedness - basically [a] change of views

    of structures and geochemical processes in

    Earth.-- Yuri Galant, geologist, August 2008

    Its at least plausible that the 3.2 billion year

    old oil we found did in fact have an abiotic

    origin. Roger Buick,

    astrobiologist/geoscientist, July 2008

    Our findings illustrate that the abiotic synthesis

    of hydrocarbons in nature may occur in the

    presence of ultramafic rocks, water, and

    moderate amounts of heat. -- Giora K.Proskurowski, geochemist/oceanographer,

    February 2008

    Five propositions in Geology, namely Plate

    Tectonics, Constant Size Earth, Heat Engine

    Earth, Elastic Rebound, and the Organic Origin

    of Hydrocarbon Reserves are challenged as

    Myths because their potential truth is not

    confirmed by Observation, and/or Experiment,

    and/or Logic. In their place the Excess Mass

    Stress Tectonics - EMST, i.e., a Solid,

    Quantified, Growing and Radiating Earth and

    its implications, such as the Inorganic Origin of

    Hydrocarbons, claims to be a Comprehensive

    Proposition. -- Stavros T. Tassos,

    seismologist/geoscientist, November 2007

    6/28

    In the context of Excess Mass Stress Tectonics

    EMST, hydrocarbons are energy sources

    produced abiotically through a process whereby

    hydrogen and carbon, but also oxygen, nitrogen,sulphur and trace-elements being formed in the

    Earth's core, rise through radial fracture trails

    in the solid and cold mantle to the Earth's

    surface. If their rise is blocked they compose

    bigger compounds, e.g., kerogen, that can

    transform by radiant heat in the upper 5 km orso of the Earth's interior, into gas, oil and coal,

    at temperatures
