ABSTRACT OF PRESENTATION

THIS REGULAR GENERAL MEETING LUNCHEON EVENT WILL BE HELD IN PERSON AND ALSO VIA WEBINAR. TO REGISTER FOR THE WEBINAR, PLEASE CLICK ON THIS LINK:  https://www.spegcs.org/events/6662/

Waterflooding is a widely used approach to get more recovery from conventional reservoirs.  However, the geological heterogeneity of a reservoir challenges waterflooding efficiency.

This talk will discuss a microbial technology which utilizes indigenous bacteria to plug preferred water channels and improves the conformance control of waterflooding. In additional to EOR benefits, it reduces water production resulting in reduced LOE costs, and protects reservoirs from souring.
