Influence of biodegradation on the chemical composition of heavy oil and bitumen | 1987 | biodegredation; chemical composition of heavy oil and bitumen; heavy oil; bitumen; biodegredation of petroleum | Biodegradation of petroleum is a selective metabolism of special organic compounds by an ensemble of microorganisms. It apparently starts under aerobic conditions, which are provided in areas invaded by surfacederived, oxygen-rich formation waters. Bacteria introduced into an oil pool with meteoric ... |

An echoing in-situ combustion oil recovery project in a Utah tar sand | 1982 | in-situ combustion; oil recovery project; Utah tar sand; echoing in-situ; U.S. tar sand resources; reverse combustion process; heterogeneous tar sand reservoir | U.S. tar sand resources contain an estimated 30 billion bbl (4.7 Gm3) of oil in place in about 550 occurrences in 22 states. Over 90% of the known resources are in six large deposits in Utah, each containing from 1 to 16 billion bbl (0.15 to 2.5 Gm3) of oil. 1 Four major tar sand deposits in Alberta... |

Tar sand research and development at the University of Utah | 1987 | tar sand research; tar sand development; hydrocarbon recovery; extensive tar sand deposits; in situ thermal production; bitumen; surface mining; hydrocarbon liquid | The recovery of hydrocarbon values from the extensive tar sand deposits of North America has generally been approached by one of two methods: in situ thermal production of the bitumen or of a bitumen-derived liquid or surface mining of the deposit followed by processing of the mined ore. In either a... |
