Effects of biodegradation on diamondoid distribution in crude oils from the Bongor Basin, Chad

The sensitivity of biodegradation on diamondoids was investigated using a series of biodegraded oil samples from the Ronier tectonic unit of Bongor Basin, Chad. The results suggest that diamondoids, including adamantanes (As) and diamantanes (Ds), are relatively resistant to biodegradation and obvio...
