应用微生物技术提高原油采收率的建议是由J·W·贝克曼于1926年首次提出的,直到20世纪40年代C·E·祖贝尔发现微生物可以从岩心中释放油,并开始了系统的试验研究,到50年代初期这项工作才从室内试验转入矿场实验。经过半个世纪以来室内试验和多年的现场实验,这项技术以施工简单、成本低廉而受到世界各产油国的重视。美国能源部的统计资料表明:全美国有27%的油藏具有微生物提高原油采 The suggestion of using microbial technology to enhance oil recovery was first proposed by J.W. Beckman in 1926. By the late 1940s CE Eberle discovered that microbes could release oil from the core and start systematic In experimental studies, it was not until the early 1950s that this work was transferred from laboratory tests to field experiments. After half a century of indoor experiments and years of field experiments, this technology is easy to construct and low-cost by the world’s oil-producing countries. US Department of Energy statistics show that: the United States 27% of the reservoir with micro-organisms to improve crude oil mining
