The microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) method is an eco-friendly and economical alternative technology. technology involves a variety of uncertainties, its success depends on controlling growth metabolism. Though few numerical studies have been carried out to reduce the no attempt has made consider temperature, pressure, salinity in integrated manner. In this study, new modeling incorporati...

The methanogenic biodegradation of crude oil involves the conversion of hydrocarbons to methanogenic substrates by syntrophic bacteria and subsequent methane production by methanogens. Assessing the metabolic roles played by various microbial species in syntrophic communities remains a challenge, but such information has important implications for bioremediation and microbial enhanced energy re...

The petroleum industry requires the best materials to reverse the rock wettability to water-wet state which give significantly improved oil recovery.Nanoparticles are suggested as enhanced oil recovery potential agents to decrease viscosity and alter the wettability of reservoir towards more water-wet. This study provides new insights into CuO nanoparticles effects on wett...

The biosurfactant production by Bacillus licheniformis W16 and evaluation of biosurfactant based enhanced oil recovery (EOR) using core-flood under reservoir conditions were investigated. Previously reported nine different production media were screened for biosurfactant production, and two were further optimized with different carbon sources (glucose, sucrose, starch, cane molasses, or date mo...

Fractional flow analysis confirms the advantages of surfactant alternative gas injection (SAG) in enhanced oil recovery, but an adsorption phenomenon that has been affected by several factors, weakens the effectiveness of SAG injection. In this study, the effects of sacrificial agent, gas phase, and surfactant concentration on adsorption density on silica mineral were investigated by static and...

Biosurfactants are extracellular surface active compounds produced by bacteria, fungi and yeast. Most microbial surfactants are complex molecules, comprising different structures that include lipopeptides, glycolipids, polysaccharide protein complexes, fatty acids and phospholipids. In the past two decades, biosurfactants have gained increasing attention due to their useful properties such as b...

The miscible displacement process appears to be an increasingly feasible method for the extraction of oil from depleted reservoirs. How‌ever, there is a lack of fundamental understanding of how fracture geometrical characteristics impact the oil recovery efficiency in this type of enhanced oil recovery technique. In this work, a series of experimental tests were conducted whereby the n-Hept...

Although the use of microbial tracers has been instrumental in developing a better understanding of groundwater movement in many types of aquifers (1, 17, 34, 141, 149, 189, 190, 239), the importance of studying the transport behavior of the microorganisms themselves is now very apparent. This is due largely to an increasing dependence on limited and fragile groundwater resources. In particular...
