P205 Microbial EOR – A Review on its Effectivity in the Past & Present for Improving Oil Recovery from Declining/Mature Assets S. Zahid* (University of Engineering & Technology) SUMMARY In today’s world oil market economic production of hydrocarbons requires carefully engineered recovery projects of increasing technical complexity and sophistication. As the search for additional oil continues recovery of known reserves must be improved if the goal of avoiding shortages is to be met. One of the improved recovery methods is the microbiological enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). MEOR techniques have become established as a cost-effective and economical solution for the declining
