Dynamic investigation of microbial activity in microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR)

Petroleum Science and Technology, 2018
ABSTRACTThe activity of reservoir microorganism is essential to Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). This present paper investigates the relationship between the microbial activity and production performance by means of long-scale & long-term experiments. The six rounds of nutritional injection was carried out in 135 days.

Comparison of mono‐rhamnolipids and di‐rhamnolipids on microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) applications

Biotechnology Progress, 2020
Abstract Rhamnolipids (RMLs) have more effectiveness for specific uses according to their homologue proportions. Thus, the novelty of this work was to compare mono‐RMLs and di‐RMLs physicochemical properties on microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) applications. For this, RML produced by three strains of

A pilot study on large-scale microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) in Baolige Oilfield

International Biodeterioration and Biodegradation, 2018
Abstract Industrial application of microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) has been hindered by a lack of large-scale data-based guidelines for process design and operation. In the present work MEOR was investigated in both laboratory and large-scale oilfield studies.

Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR): recent development and future perspectives

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2023
After conventional oil recovery operations, more than half of the crude oil still remains in a form, which is difficult to extract. Therefore, exploring and developing new enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies have always been priority research in oilfield development.

Dynamic Screening for Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR)

Proceedings, 2017
Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly method for mature reservoirs, exploiting indigenous microorganisms that can be stimulated in the reservoir. As MEOR relies of the combination of various mechanisms a very well designed screening procedure is necessary for a successful field application.

Factors Affecting Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR)

2018
Oil and natural gas are the primary sources of energy used by humanity, as renewable energy is not yet available to the entire population. After an oil field is abandoned, or its production declines significantly, an estimated two-thirds of the oil originally onsite remains in the subsoil, which is difficult and expensive to extract by conventional ...

Biosystem Development for Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR)

2011
Conventional primary and secondary oil recovery processes recover only one third of the oil present in the oil reservoir. EOR technologies produce an additional oil recovery after these processes cease to produce oil. Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) includes the tertiary oil recovery process where microorganisms or their metabolites are used to ...

Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) in Petroleum Reservoir

International Science and Technology Journal
Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR), characterized with the virtues of low cost and environmental protection, reflects the prevalent belief in environmental protection, and is attracting the attention of more researchers. Nonetheless, with the prolonged slump in global oil prices, how to further reduce the cost of MEOR has become a key factor in its

Microbially enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). Part 2. Microbes and the subsurface environment for MEOR

Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 1994
In Part 1 of this review, the importance of microbially enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) was stressed along with the historical background and proposed mechanisms involved in MEOR. In this second part the main focus is on the types of organisms used, the effect of the subsurface environment, and future work in the MEOR process.

MICROBIAL ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY (MEOR) IN PEANUT OIL

International Journal of Drug Delivery Technology
Aflatoxins, highly toxic and carcinogenic secondary metabolites produced by Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus, pose a serious threat to food safety, particularly in oil-rich crops like peanuts. Contamination of peanut oil with aflatoxins presents a major health concern and limits its commercial value.
