Published Research
Geogenomics is dedicated to advancing the use of DNA based testing in the oil and gas industry. Using genomics tools we continuously strive to gain a better understanding of our clients’ challenges and opportunities.
Microbially Influenced Corrosion
The diversity of oil field bacteria capable of catalysing MIC extends to nitrate-reducing sulfide-oxidizing microbes
Oil Reservoir Souring Control
Souring in oil fields can be controlled by engineering subsurface microbial activity through injection of nitrate or perchlorate.
High Arctic Soil Contamination
Natural attenuation of spilled crude oil by cold-adapted soil bacterial communities at a decommissioned High Arctic oil well site.
Exploration using Endospores
Thermophilic endospores associated with migrated thermogenic hydrocarbons in deep Gulf of Mexico marine sediments.
Hydrocarbon Seep Biomarkers
Bacterial and Archaeal sequences show hydrocarbon seepage in the deep seabed linking subsurface and seafloor biospheres.
Oil Sands Tailings Ponds
Oil sands tailings ponds harbour a small core prokaryotic microbiome and diverse accessory communities.
