Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herewith is a method of using N-hydroxycarboxamide compound based metabolic inhibitor composition, which has demonstrated efficacy for controlling biofilms formed by sulfate reducing prokaryotes. This composition is suitable for use in downhole, drilling and exploration application environments and in equipment like rigs, semi-submersibles, storage and base structures. It can also be used in other harsh environment applications, including mining, industrial extraction of metals and sewage treatment, as well as non-harsh environment applications.
