etailed microbial analyses of a glacial outwash aquifer contaminated by crude oil provide insights into the pattern of microbial succession from iron reducing to methanogenic in the anaerobic portion of the contaminant plume. We analysed sediments from this area for populations of aerobes, iron reducers, fermenters and methanogens, using the most probable number method. On the basis of the microbial data the anaerobic area can be divided into distinct physiological zones dominated by either iron-reducers or a consortium of fermenters and methanogens. Chemistry and permeability data show that methanogenic conditions develop first in areas of high hydrocarbon flux. Thus, we find methanogens both in high permeability...

The inhibition of acetoclastic methanogenesis in crude oil- and creosote-contaminated groundwater was studied. The crude oil and water-soluble components of creosote contributed to the inhibition of acetoclastic methanogens. Acetoclastic methanogenesis was much more susceptible to the toxic inhibition of crude oil and creosote than either hydrogen- or formate-utilizing methanogenesis. The effect of this toxic inhibition was apparent in the population of the methanogenic trophic groups near nonaqueous crude oil at the Bemidji, MN, site. At a crude oil-contaminated site, numbers of acetoclastic methanogens found close to crude oil were 100 times fewer than those of hydrogen- and formate-utilizing methanogens. In laboratory...

During a multidisciplinary study at two oil production sites of differing ages near Lake Skiatook, Osage County, Oklahoma, a series of oil, water, brine, and soil samples were characterized and analyzed for geochemical parameters that are indicative of microbial activity. Characterization of the resident microbial populations was completed for a number of these samples. The area source oils are a paraffinic-naphthenic light oil, containing n-alkanes as the dominant components unimpacted by biodegradation. The oils at the inactive site are similar although vary in stages of biodegradation. Some nearby oils at the active site do not correlate, suggesting that there is not significant subsurface transport of the spilled...
