Correlations are comparisons of (1) oils with other oils or (2) oils with [[source rock]] extracts to determine whether a genetic relationship exists. Correlations are accomplished by comparing elemental, molecular, and isotopic parameters using techniques such as [[gas chromatography]] (GC), [[Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS): procedures|gas chromatography with mass spectrometry]] (GC/MS), and [[Isotopic_parameter_data_for_oil–oil_and_oil–source_rock_correlations#Carbon_isotope_ratios|carbon isotope ratio]] determination.
