GEOLOGY
The Mystery of Eugene Island 330
Eugene Island is a submerged mountain in the Gulf of Mexico about
80 miles off the Louisiana coast. The landscape of Eugene Island
is riven with deep fissures and faults from which spew
spontaneous belches of gas and oil. Up on the surface, a
platform designated Eugene Island 330 began producing about
15,000 barrels of oil per day in the early 1970s. By 1989, the
flow had dwindled to 4,000 barrels per day. Then, suddenly,
production zoomed to 13,000 barrels. In addition, estimated
reserves rocketed from 60 to 400 million barrels. Even more
anomalous is the discovery that the geological age of today's oil
is quite different from that recovered 10 years ago. What's
going on under the Gulf of Mexico?
It is difficult to avoid the conclusion that the oil reservoir at
Eugene Island is rapidly refilling itself from "some continuous
source miles below the earth's surface." In support of this
surmise, analysis of seismic records revealed a deep fault which
"was gushing oil like a garden hose."
The deep-seated oil source at Eugene Island strongly supports T.
Gold's theory about *The Deep Hot Biosphere*. Gold holds:
that oil is actually a renewable, primordial syrup continually
manufactured by the earth under ultrahot conditions and
tremendous pressures. As this substance migrates toward
the surface, it is attacked by bacteria, making it appear
to have an organic origin dating back to the dinosaurs.
The apparent deep-seated oil source at Eugene Island and Gold's
ideas make petroleum engineers wonder about a similar situation
at the seemingly inexhaustible oil fields of the Middle East.
The Middle East has more than doubled its reserves in the
past 20 years, despite half a century of intense exploitation
and relatively few new discoveries. It would take a pretty
big pile of dead dinosaurs and prehistoric plants to account
for the estimated 660 billion barrels of oil in the region,
notes Norman Hyne, a professor at the University of Tulsa
in Oklahoma. "Off-the-wall theories often turn out to be
right," he says.
