Abstract

After selecting several old wells in Cepu, then well LDK-132 was chosen for implementing MEOR technology using "huff and puff" method. For this purpose, fluids samples (water and oil) from Ledok Formation were taken at the wellhead. No core of LDK-132 was available, only cores from LDK-209 and LDK-P1 were found. Core plugs could not be made from the former due to compacted and tightly conditions with a very low permeability of only 0.458 md. The latter with the permeability of 140 md met the requirements of microbial core flooding (MCF) tests, A standard quartz dominated core from Clashach Scotland with permeability almost 800 md was also used to compare with the native core's results. The MCF tests were conducted at the reservoir conditions for both types of core. The native core gave a recovery factor of oil production of 12.58%, while the standard core yielded a higher recovery fac- tor of 21.22% of Sor. Based on these results, the MEOR implementation was conducted on July 8, 1999 by injecting 135 barrels of mixtures consist- ing of formation water, microbes enriched with KKL-11 (Koleksi Kultur Lemigas or Lemigas Cultures Collection) and M4 medium through the annulus of LDK-132. The result showed an increase of average oil production rate, from 3.46 bopd, 6 days before the injection, to 24.85 bopd, 6 days after the injection.

Abstract

Oil recovery can be increased through the activities of microbes in a process known as Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR). MEOR technology has been implemented in a number of oil producing companies and has proven to have a good prospect, environmentally friendly and low cost. The microbes which proliferate in Indonesian oil fields should be subjected to laboratory identification. Samples of formation water, oil, and soil were taken from various oil fields. These oil fields were selected on account of their reservoir temperatures which promise optimum growth of microbes. In order that MEOR can be applied in these oil fields, the existing microbes in their oil wells were isolated and identified. Based on the results of isolation and identification activities several indigenous bacteria species were obtained from the oil well environment. The potential of each bacteria species for use in MEOR process depends on their ability to live and grow in the reservoir environment as well as the bioproducts produced, such as biosurfactant, bioacid, and biosolvent. The bioproducts produced depend on the inherent capability of the isolate as well as the support of the medium and environmental condition. From the tests of their capability to grow in hydrocarbons, and live in semianaerobic condition, 12 isolates, were selected and some isolates were found to produce such bioproducts. The selected microbes and nutrient have been experimented by using microbial core flooding apparatus. The result has a good prospect for implementation in the oil field.

Abstract

B. stearothermophillus was isolated from among microbes recovered from a formation water from an oil field in Indonesia, where the temperature was 55°CLaboratory experiment was conducted to measure the growth, and to study the effects of its activity on the physical characteristics of reservoir rock and crude oil in an oil well.
