Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein is a method to control distribution of injected microorganisms, nutrients or other chemical treatment fluids from a single injection well to multiple production wells. The sweep efficiency is improved preventing premature production of fluids from production wells with short breakthrough times. This is a useful technique for treatment of subterranean target sites for practice of Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery and bioremediation.
