| Abstract | ||
| Levels of total petroleum hydrocarbons concentration had been measured in water and sediment from Umm Qaser and four stations of Iraqi marine water. The highest levels of petroleum hydrocarbons in water were 46.40 μg / l and 192.34 μg / gm in the sediment of Umm Qaser port during July 2002, while the lowest levels were 4.92 μg / l in water during May 2002 and 16.34 μg / gm in the sediment of Basrah port during January 2002. The results showed variations in the concentrations and increased in some stations. This conforms the probability of petroleum leak. An irregular leakage in Iraqi marine water due to transportation of ship and industrial process. | ||
