Rarely noted in petroleum geochemistry, this C20 highly branched isoprenoid (HBI) alkane usually co-elutes with (and is thus obscured by) the more common and usually more abundant pristane.
Dear users, we’re delighted to announce version 2. 3 of both p:IGI+ and Metis is now available.
The full release notes can be found here: Full-Release-Notes-2_3. pdf, here we summarise the highlights.

Improved artefact management is a key update delivered in v2. 3. Auto-artefacts cover the majority of artefacts including graphs, palettes, maps, pages, rule sets, dynamic sample sets and statistics. In the new release, existing autographs have been reviewed and updated, and a range of new auto-artefact templates added.

PVT data is essential for reservoir engineers to understand the properties and behaviour of oil and gas in the subsurface. It provides the necessary information on the reservoir fluids phase behaviour and composition needed for reservoir development and production planning.
Unfortunately, as the sun set on the summer solstice on the beach at Westward Ho! we did not see a fabled green flash. However, there are several outcomes we can share with everyone!
First, we heard loud and clear, companies prefer fewer releases.

2-Methylhopane - by Paul Farrimond
Hopanes are widely employed in petroleum geochemistry and have a near-ubiquitous occurrence in oils and source rocks, being derived
from bacteria.
The IGI user group ran in person over the 20-22 June 2023. This year saw a return to an in person user group, at Hallsannery in the Devon countryside. Read more here. . .
Poly-aromatic hydrocarbons encompass thousands of compounds formed by the fusion of two or more benzene rings. In this article we review their use in forensic geochemistry.
