Microbial Enhancement of Oil Recovery.

, 2012
The microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) uses specialised microorganisms along with the injection of certain nutrients such as sugars, phosphates, and nitrates into the oil well to produce metabolic activities thus, forming products such as bio-surfactants, polymers, acids and gases which, lead to an increase in oil recovery.

Rate-Limiting Nutrient Delivery System for Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery

, 2016
A limitation of biostimulation for microbial enhanced oil recovery and in situ bioremediation is loss of injectivity that can be encountered when microorganisms grow in the high nutrient concentrations found near the injection well. By encapsulating rate-
