Planktonic nitrate-reducing bacteria and sulfate-reducing bacteria in some western Canadian oil field waters
Oil fields that use water flooding to enhance oil recovery may become sour because of the production of H(2)S from the reduction of sulfate by sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB). The addition of nitrate to produced waters can stimulate the activities of nitrate-reducing bacteria (NRB) and control sulfi...

| description | Oil fields that use water flooding to enhance oil recovery may become sour because of the production of H(2)S from the reduction of sulfate by sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB). The addition of nitrate to produced waters can stimulate the activities of nitrate-reducing bacteria (NRB) and control sulfide production. Many previous studies have focused on chemolithotrophic bacteria that can use thiosulfate or sulfide as energy sources while reducing nitrate. Little attention has been given to heterotrophic NRB in oil field waters. Three different media were used in this study to enumerate various types of planktonic NRB present in waters from five oil fields in western Canada. The numbers of planktonic SRB and bacteria capable of growth under aerobic conditions were also determined. In general, microbial numbers in the produced waters were very low ( |
