Conversion of crude oil to methane by a microbial consortium enriched from oil reservoir production waters

The methanogenic biodegradation of crude oil is an important process occurring in petroleum reservoirs and other oil-containing environments such as contaminated aquifers. In this process, syntrophic bacteria degrade hydrocarbon substrates to products such as acetate, and/or H(2) and CO(2) that are...
