Agenda
What is new under the sun?
Drivers for looking at MIC in a more scientific way
MMM in brief – molecular biology in a few minutes
Sample types, sampling kits and how to handle samples for
MMM analysis
Linking MIC monitoring based on MMM with the RBI program
Control of MIC in oilfield systems – Testing Biocides
Q&A‟s
![Page 4: New Diagnostic, Predication and Control of MIC in the Oil and Gas … · 2020. 6. 3. · Diagnostic, Predication and Control of MIC in the Oil and Gas Industry ICorr Aberdeen April](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071109/5fe48ca5aea4ed3de11f6250/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
MIC: What is new under the sun?
1) Now microbes can be truly quantified in solid
samples (e.g. corrosion products, biofilm, debris)
2) Now the activity of microbes that influence
corrosion but are non-culturable can be determined
3) Now we can establish a true link between
microbial abundance of key organisms and
corrosion
This technology jump gives us a unique tool for
MIC prediction and for optimizing control strategies

Maturing assets means increased water
production:
Scale and microbial fouling
Souring
Corrosion - 20-50 % microbially related
Consequense to operators:
• Lost production
• Lower oil price (sulfur)
• Increased expenses to biocides,
scavengers, inhibitors, maintenance
• Satefy issues: Risk to personnel

Concepts of measuring microbes in oil fields
NACE Standard TM0194-2004
”Field Monitoring of Bacterial Growth in Oilfield Systems”
Dilute sample and observe at what dilution SRB are no longer present
SRB are highly oxygen sensitive and most die immediately when exposed
to atmospheric air
Less than 1% of the
microorganisms (e.g.
SRB) detected
Not suitable for solid
samples

Conclusions from NACE paper
Move towards new standards for South Arne
– No baseline from monitoring program
– New baseline initially by cases
– Corrective action decision process
– Same evaluation as other inspections
– DNV-RP-G101 does not capture MIC sufficiently - yet
Work ahead
– Execute work program
– Benefits from coordinating activities
– Active use of vendor experience
– Awareness of good microbiology samples

Presentation Summary
Take advantage of MMM – now a standard applicable tool to the industry
Measure less – get better data – act on solid ground
We now have a number of published standards available – get to know them
Go to a specialist if your system is out of control - to get it back on track
Different sample types give you different answers – be clear on what you ask
Take hard conclusions on various kind of MIC data – not only microbiologically data
Focus on communication between disciplines (chemistry, engineering, microbiology)
Get alignment in various monitoring programs and planned actions
Define meaningful KPIs and get them to work in the same direction
When spending money on mitigation of microbes – make sure it works (corrosion view)
MMM is just another set of tools in the toolbox – it is how to apply them that matters…
