  • MICROBIALLY ENHANCED THERMAL OIL RECOVERY
    Publication number: 20230175368
    Abstract: A method and a system for recovering oil from currently inaccessible oil containing geological units by activating the deep biosphere microbial seed bank. Nutrient and thermal enhancement of microorganisms in oil containing geological units allows for stimulation of inactive and/or dormant microorganisms such that they proliferate and produce gas. The oil viscosity that is decreased by heat, along with the gas pressure produced by activated microbes which allows previously inaccessible oil to flow toward production wells.
    Type: Application
    Filed: January 17, 2023
    Publication date: June 8, 2023
    Inventors: Casey HUBERT, Milovan FUSTIC
