Iron is well-known for rusting, but this doesn’t just happen on contact with oxygen and water. Some bacteria are also able to able to decompose iron anaerobically in a process referred to as ...

Microbially induced corrosion (MIC) is a prevalent issue in marine environments, leading to structural damages such as cracking in concrete infrastructure. This corrosion poses a persistent challenge, ...

Corroding microbes are a costly menace for industries relying on hidden and underground iron structures like sprinklers and oil pipelines. A recent study sheds light on the mechanisms behind microbial ...

Assessment of microbial communities from an oil production skimmer pit using 16S rRNA gene sequencing technique revealed massive dominance of methanogenic archaea in both the skimmer pit water and ...

A program for successfully managing internal corrosion in wet-gas gathering facilities has been proven in two major offshore gathering systems over the last 12 years. The two gathering systems were ...
