"According to the abiogenic theory of petroleum origin, natural petroleum has no connection with biological matter[7] because the Second Law of Thermodynamics prevents that from ever happening.[8] ". This is bullshit. If you check the link (which look like a scientific papaer, but was not published in a peer reviewed science journal), you see the have proven that sugar can not be converted into petroleum, it would break the 2nd law of thermod. Fine. But plants are not 100% sugar !! In fact, when plants die, sugar disappear quickly, it's mainly lipids that sediments. So nobody ever said that petroleum comes from sugar, petroleum come from lipids. --Raminagrobis fr (talk) 06:08, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lipids cannot survive 10 kilometers deep in the mantle at pressures above 30 kilobar. No biological molecule can.Wikkidd (talk) 00:45, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly. Several km deep, lipids don't survive the heat and pressure, they're destroyed. Pyrolyzed. The result of this this destruction, if the conditions are adequate, is petroleum. --Raminagrobis fr (talk) 09:20, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons require pressures of 30 kilobar for their formation which corresponds to 100 kilometers deep in the Earth's mantle. No biological molecule can survive 100 kilometers deep because it is past the critical temperature of water.Wikkidd (talk) 20:30, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Polycyclic hydrocarbons in oil comes from... polycyclic hydrocarbons in living matter (the most famous one : Chlorophyll, nice polyciclic structure). What are you trying to demonstrate exactly? Reinventing oil geology ? --Raminagrobis fr (talk) 16:51, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted Wikkidd's edits, see the discussions at Talk:Petroleum#Abiogenic Petroleum Origin and Talk:Diamondoid where Wikkidd is pushing the same fringe theories, against consensus after discussion. -Colfer2 (talk) 05:45, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
