occurrences of serpentinized peridotites in ophiolites (e.g., Fritz et al., 1992) and on the seafloor
(e.g., Konn et al., 2009). In some cases, a strong argument can be made for the biogenic origin
of hydrocarbons. However, in most other cases of hydrocarbon seeps in serpentinites, there is
no obvious organic source, suggesting that the gases (mainly simple alkanes) form as a result
of abiogenic processes (e.g., McCollom and Seewald, 2007).
