Biotechnology of oil production. Principles and application

The importance of biotechnology in various areas of human activity has become increasingly obvious in recent years. This determines the interest that, in our opinion, this book represents. It is aimed primarily at specialists engaged in the development of biotechnologies, as well as oil practitioners. The purpose of this book is to give the most complete, in — depth understanding of what oil production biotechnology is. However, it would be frivolous to say that this book exhaustively covers this topic. It is intended to arouse the interest of researchers and practitioners to this problem and give a General idea about it. This is essentially only the basis of some of the main research areas that can be attributed to the field of oil production biotechnologies, as well as an assessment of the principles that are the basis for the development of such technologies. At the same time, we believe that this book can be a good introduction to most of the main problems of oil production biotechnology. The book is intended not only for oil practitioners and specialists in the field of microbial biotechnologies, but also for a wide range of readers. It will be very useful for a student, an engineer specializing in the field of biotechnology of oil field development, as well as scientists to read this book.
