Abstract:

Biodeterioration of crude oil and oilfuel is a serious environmental and economic problem，the path of the contamination from microbes，the main species of microbes causing the biodeterioration，and the way to monitor and prevent the biodeterioration to crude oil and oilfuels are presented.Both aerobic and anaerobic microbes tend to colonize oil pipelines and oil or fuel storage installations，their activities inevitably spoil crude oil and oilfuels.Nowadays various biological technologies，such as immunological technology，testing kits，molecular biology technology and fluorescence methods，are utilized for microbial monitoring in crude oil and oilfuel.To suppress microbial growth in oil and fuel，both physico-mechanical and chemical methods are applied.

Key words: crude oil, oilfuel, microbes, contamination, biodeterioration, energy security, energy conservation and environment protection
