Research on microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is reported. MICP may serve to reduce near-wellbore permeability, reduce CO2– related corrosion, and lower the risk of unwanted migration of CO2 or other fluids. MICP research on the lab scale has demonstrated the ability to seal sandstone cores using injection strategies engineered to control precipitation. Experimentation was also aimed...
