Sulphate reducing prokaryotes (SRP) cause hydrogen sulphide (H2S) generation in some waterflooded hydrocarbon reservoirs that is known as microbial reservoir souring or biosouring. The H2S generated in-situ by SRP is toxic and corrosive that adversely affects the quality, production, and economy of...
