title: [Microbial metabolic characteristics and ecological controlling in petroleum reservoir--a review].
abstract: Petroleum reservoir has a variety of microbes with diverse metabolic characteristics and great diversity. These microbes play an important role in geochemical cycle. Research on their metabolism and ecological relationships enables the understanding of Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR). Based on the present researches, we review the microbial metabolic characteristics and ecological relationships in oil reservoir.
