Abstract: To predict where deposits of oil and natural gas can be found, and to exploit these resources, it would be very useful to know what are the fundamental chemical reactions that generate petroleum. A new study gives clues about these reactions, and the authors propose that organically derived sulphur species are pivotal in regulating the rate at which petroleum is generated.
