| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to methods for improving hydrocarbon and water compatibility. More specifically, the invention relates to methods for enhancing the microbial production of surface-active agents in hydrocarbon-exposed surface waters in order to improve hydrocarbon and water compatibility. Hydrocarbon-exposed surface waters having enhanced levels of surface-active agents can be used to improve hydrocarbon recovery from subterranean formations or for remediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated sites.
