Title: Effects of selected thermophilic microorganisms on crude oils at elevated temperatures and pressures. Quarterly report, July 1, 1992--September 30, 1992

Abstract

The objective of this program is to determine the chemical and physical effects of thermophilic and thermoadapted organisms on crude oils and cores at elevated temperatures and pressures. Ultimately a data base will be generated which will be used in technical and economic feasibility studies leading to field applications. Progress reports are presented for the following tasks: duration of biotreatment and media effects where comparative studies of microbial effects on different types of heavy oils are discussed; construction of core-flooding systems; and microscopic comparison of reaction mixtures.
