What is Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery Overview about?

Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) uses microbes found in or introduced to petroleum reservoirs to increase oil production. As microbes metabolize, they excrete byproducts like alcohols, gases, acids, surfactants and polymers that can enhance oil recovery. MEOR is an economically attractive option for marginal oil fields as it is inexpensive, uses existing field infrastructure, and microbes are biodegradable with minimal environmental impact. Key mechanisms for enhanced recovery include modifying porosi
