Comparison of microbial community compositions of injection and production well samples in a long-term water-flooded petroleum reservoir.
Water flooding plays an important role in recovering oil from depleted petroleum reservoirs. Exactly how the microbial communities of production wells are affected by microorganisms introduced with injected water has previously not been adequately studied. Using denaturing gradient gel electrophores...
