Paper Title
Estimation of Cancer Risk Radiation from an Abandoned Oil-Well Site

Abstract
Abstract - The absorption of radionuclides into the body through inhalation or ingestion of food and water disrupts the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) cells, leading to the formation of cancer cells. The distribution of natural radionuclides in soil and water of an Abandoned oil well was estimated using the NaI(Tl) gamma-ray spectrometer. The estimated average of 238U, 232Th, and 40K for soil samples are 46.48Bq⁄kg, 54.28Bq⁄kg, and 938.69Bq⁄kg. Simultaneously, the estimated mean activity concentrations of 238U, 232Th, and 40K for water samples are 14.30Bq⁄L, 19.31Bq⁄L, and 259.53Bq⁄L, respectively. The estimated value of ELCR for soil and water is higher than the average value of 0.2x10-3. The water and soil's intake and application for agricultural purposes or building materials might constitute excessive radiological hazards and increased cancer risk in this area.
