Abstract EN
Total petroleum hydrocarbons in surface water samples collected from the Red Sea coast al area of Jeddah (Saudi Arabia), have been measured using ultraviolet fluorescence spectroscopy (UVF).
Concentration level ranged between 1.79 and 17.9 J..I.g 1,1 light Arabian oil equivalents .
Samples taken near the oil terminal (Petromin) showed relatively high concentrations (2.8-17.9 J..I.g I" 1).
whereas in the relatively clean Obhur Creek concentrations wer~ low (2 J..I.g 1- I).
Perfect agreement has been obtained between concentrations calculated as chrysene and light Arabian equivalents.
However, the light Arabian equivalent concentration is almost 6 times the chrysene equivalent concentration.
