Chloromethyl-methylisothiazolone (CMIT/MIT) biocide is used for microbial control in industrial water treatment applications. It is effective versus various types of bacteria, algae and fungi. This paper will provide results of planktonic and biofilm efficacy studies with CMIT/MIT biocide versus various strains of Desulfovibrio.

Observations and guidelines to conduct hydrostatic pressure tests of pipelines and/or process equipment. Concerns for hydrostatic pressure tests relate to the water itself, including any suspended solids, dissolved oxygen, or any Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) or Acid Producing Bacteria (APB) present in the test water.
A preliminary evaluation of the use of Surface Enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to monitor Biofilm. SERS was used to monitor the growth of Desulfovibrio vulgaris and Desulfovibrio desulfuricans on UNS S30400 stainless steel samples in-situ from pre-inoculation through the initial hours of growth at 37 °C and atmospheric pressure.
As part of a project to develop a database of seawater corrosion resistance including resistance to microbiologically-influenced corrosion (MIC) seawater, MIC exposure tests of five stainless steel alloys were undertaken for three and six month durations.
Biocides and corrosion inhibitors can decrease corrosion in stagnant and flowing systems. We used 1 ml syringe columns packed with 60 carbon steel beads (55 mg each), which were continuously injected with the effluent of an sulfur reducing bacteria continuous culture chemostat, to monitor corrosion under flow conditions.
Corrosion behaviors on carbon steel - in presence of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) - were studied via weight loss methods and electrochemical tests including polarization curve and EIS measurements.
Tests were conducted in simulated water environments with nutrient-rich environments with sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB). Effects of crevice environments, caused by macrofoulers on corrosion and in comparison with biotic condition, were studied.
Electrochemical techniques enabling real-time survey of corrosion, such as multi-electrode arrays sensors (MASS) and linear polarization resistance (LPR) were used to detect the differences in electrochemical behavior of two stainless steels.
Uncontrolled growth of microorganisms in the oil field production systems have a major negative impact on the productivity and asset integrity in oil and gas industry. Sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) have been found as the most troublesome group of microorganisms among all organisms involved in MIC of carbon steel and other metals used in the oil industry (Abdullah et al 2014). The formation of SRB biofilm on steel surface can affect the kinetics of anodic and cathodic reactions, leading to an acceleration of steel corrosion (Beech and Sunner, 2004: Zuo,2007). In addition to that, SRB contributes to hydrogen sulfide-driven reservoir souring, increased suspended solids, reservoir plugging, etc., in oil field sites.
A leak suddenly occurred at the 24-inch common crude piping from the separators heading to the degassing boot inlets and the wet crude tanks in an oil gathering center. The initial observations showed the leak was due to a deep isolated pit and localized corrosion. Additional inspections by manual ultrasonic thickness (UT) and long range ultrasonic thickness (LRUT) measurements for the 24” common crude line showed similar deep isolated pits (up to 70% thickness reduction) scattered across the length of the 1100 meter piping.
The incidence and proliferation of microbial population in oil and gas production facilities can have undesirable consequences on upstream, midstream and downstream production systems. Microbes thrive in the anaerobic conditions encountered in these systems and are supported by nutrients and metabolites found in produced water. Although the majority of process and water injection systems are susceptible to microbial fouling, the development of microbial activity is exacerbated by specific conditions such as stagnant fluids or the presence of deposits.1 Threats of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and other challenges associated with microorganisms have become valid as more cases are reported. While MIC, biofouling (BF), and reservoir souring are three of the most common problems associated with microbes, many other production issues can be attributable to microbial activity including: employee infections, filter plugging, loss of injectivity, and metal sulfide deposits.2
