Tackling Microbially Influenced Corrosion (MIC) in Oil & Gas and Mining: Leveraging Molecular Biological Tools for Effective Management

Corrosion is one of the most persistent and costly challenges facing the oil, gas, and mining industries. But not all corrosion is created equal. When microorganisms accelerate or initiate metal degradation, the result is Microbially Influenced Corrosion (MIC), a process responsible for an estimated 40% of internal corrosion across industrial sectors. Unlike purely chemical corrosion, […]
