description | For a petroleum company, the oil biodegradation is an important aspect to appraisal both exploration/production
and economic perspective. Black to volatile oils require different materials and techniques in comparison to those used
for heavy oils. Economically, biodegradable oils has a lower market value than the non-biodegradable oil. Following
the presence and absence of a set of biomarkers observed in the chromatograms and fragmentograms, it is possible
an interpretation and an indentification of different levels of biodegradation . This methodology comprises the main
objective of this work. The oil studied lacks “n” and iso-alkanes, the major proportion of tricyclic on the pentacyclic,
the presence of demethylated compounds, plus the major proportion of diasteranes on steranes, suggesting an advanced
degree of biodegradation. According to this investigation, the degree 8 of biodegradation (Peter & Moldowan, 1993),
records a huge process of bacterial attack happened into the reservoir in a range of temperature from 350
C up to 500
C,
