The use of biological catalyst (enzyme) for enhanced oil recovery in Niger Delta

The use of biological catalyst (enzyme) for enhanced oil recovery in Niger Delta

This study is aimed at using bio-catalyst (enzymes) for enhanced oil recovery in Niger Delta. Three different enzymes produced from microbial isolates with code ID; LPE1, LPE2 and AME were use in analyzing enzymes effect on the rock-fluid and fluid-fluid interaction test to simulate the conditions i...
