The Wikipedia quote is below. What I love about this one is it is an economic judgement, i.e. a market based judgement, and therefore by definition correct, as compared to those wacko environmentalists, who by definition are incorrect :))) One type of unusual deposit that one might expect to find if the abiogenic hypothesis is true would be hydrocarbons trapped in sedimentary basins that do not contain conventional source rocks. Evidence for such deposits is lacking. Many economically disappointing wells have been drilled into geologic structures that would be expected to trap hydrocarbons, but there are no hydrocarbons present. Oil companies have learned that an appropriate source rock is necessary before they will commit to drilling a well in a potential new field.
