This project addresses the role of microbial processes in oil exploration and production. It aims to enhance understanding of how microbial activity affects oil quality and biodegradation, ultimately improving production strategies in the oil industry.
The oil industry is dominated by engineers, geologists, geophysicists and geochemists, but the importance of microbial processes in oil exploration and production is increasingly being recognized.
The world’s heavy oil deposits, that dominate the inventory of global reserves, were generated by microbial activity.
Understanding the factors that control microbial activity and subsurface oil biodegradation is important for pre-drill prediction of oil quality.
Biodegradation-induced gradients in oil…
