Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery Markets Research Report- Forecast to 2022
1 Summary
The report has been analyzed based on the injection type, applications, well types and regions. Only
bacteria’s are used for MEOR process because of their ability to survive extreme conditions present in the
reservoir. The small size of the bacteria makes it easy for them to penetrate the reservoirs porous medium.
This enables the bacteria to physically displace oil by growing between oil and selective partial degradation
of whole crude oil. They also reduce the interfacial tension between oil and enable to alter wettability to
reduce oil viscosity.
Key Players:
The key players of Global Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery Markets are Statoil ASA (Norway), BP (U.K),
Titan Oil Recovery, Inc. (U.S), Chemiphase Ltd, (U.K), Genome Prairie (Canada), Glori Energy Inc.(U.S),
and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (U.S.).
