المستخلص:This study has been carried out on the soil that exposed to the contamination by hydrocarbons due to spill and leakage. Soil pollution with hydrocarbons has become an important problem of our days. When released on soil surface, petroleum hydrocarbons adsorb on the organic mineral matter of the soil. This paper presents the data obtained during the study achieved at three sites at Tobruk petroleum refinery of four horizons at depths of soil profile (0-20 cm, 20-30 cm, 30-40 cm and 40-50 cm). Each site represented a characteristic features of a definite soil e. g. sandy soil, calcareous soil and argillaceous soil. The pollutant is crude oil, and the main parameter followed is total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH). The concentration of TPH is varying from site to anther and from depth to depth. This variation may be attributed to the soil type, soil texture, petrophysical properties and the main component of hydrocarbons. The distillation fractions of the crude oil e.g. gasoline kerosene and diesel show variable retention capacity for the different soil types, where the lower retention capacity was recorded in coarse sand and the highest capacity in fine sand and clay.
