Abstract:
In marine environments, microbial attacks on metallic materials result in microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), which could cause severe safety accidents and high economic losses. To date, MIC of a number of metallic materials ranging from common steels to corrosion-resistant ferrous alloys has been reported. The MIC process has been explained based on (1) bio-catalyzed oxygen reduction; (2) kinetics alternation of the corrosion process by increasing the mass transport of the reactants and products; (3) production of corrosive substances; and (4) generation of auxiliary cathodic reactants. However, it is difficult to have a clear understanding of the MIC mechanism of ferrous alloys due to the interdisciplinary nature of MIC and lack of deep knowledge about the interfacial reaction between the biofilm and ferrous alloys. In order to better understand the effect of the MIC process on ferrous alloys, here we comprehensively summarized the process of biofilm formation and MIC mechanisms of ferrous alloys.

Abstract:
The microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is one of the most common forms of corrosion that results from the presence and activity of microorganisms. The presence of microorganism aids in the formation of a bio film and constitutes various bacterial cells, extracellular polymeric substrates (EPS) and corrosion products. In this paper, a review on the importance of MIC and various ways to mitigate has been introduced; a brief description of the physical, chemical, electrochemical and biological mitigation methods for MIC has been included and EPS formation mechanism, chemical composition, properties and its influence on corrosion has been discussed.

Abstract:
Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) represents a serious and challenging problem in Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading vessels (FPSOs), one of the most common type of offshore oil production facilities in Australia. Microorganisms can attach to metal surfaces, which under certain conditions, can result in corrosion rates in excess of 10 mm per year (mmpy) leading to equipment failure before their expected lifetime. Particularly, increasing water cut (ratio of water vs. total fluids produced), normally resulting from the age of the assets, results in an increased risk of MIC. This paper provides an overview of causative microorganisms, their source of contamination and the areas within FPSOs that are most prone to MIC. Although mitigation practices such as chemical treatments, flushing and draining and even cathodic protection are effective, MIC can still occur if the systems are not properly monitored and managed. A case study is presented that describes the microorganisms identified in a FPSO operating in Australia suspected of having MIC issues.

Abstract:
Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is a major concern in a wide range of industries, with claims that it contributes 20% of the total annual corrosion cost. The focus of this present work is to review critically the most recent proposals for MIC mechanisms, with particular emphasis on whether or not these make sense in terms of their electrochemistry. It is determined that, despite the long history of investigating MIC, we are still a long way from really understanding its fundamental mechanisms, especially in relation to non-sulphate reducing bacterial (SRB) anaerobes. Nevertheless, we do know that both the cathodic polarization theory and direct electron transfer from the metal into the cell are incorrect. Electrically conducting pili also do not appear to play a role in direct electron transfer, although these could still play a role in aiding the mass transport of redox mediators. However, it is not clear if the microorganisms are just altering the local chemistry or if they are participating directly in the electrochemical corrosion process, albeit via the generation of redox mediators. The review finishes with suggestions on what needs to be done to further our understanding of MIC.

Abstract:
This introduction to microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) describes how bacteria can cause MIC where inadequate disinfection of mill water or white water allows biofilms to grow on metal surfaces. Although planktonic bacteria (that float in solution) rarely cause corrosion, sessile bacteria (that adhere to surfaces) can produce corrosive chemicals or promote under-deposit corrosion. The diagnosis of MIC requires knowledge not only of corrosion processes, but also of microbiology, water treatment, and plant operations. Although the presence of bacteria does not prove that the corrosion was caused by MIC, factors such as the presence in the corroded area of bacteria that can cause MIC, of chemical indicators of MIC, of features of the corrosion damage that are characteristic of MIC, and recent operational changes that could have enhanced the activity of microorganisms can combine to provide compelling evidence. Because of the complexity of mill water environments, test data must be reviewed with care because of the possibility that other components of the water could have interfered with the analytical results.

Abstract:
This paper investigates a severe microbiologically influenced failure in the elbows of a buried amine pipeline in a petrochemical plant. Pipelines can experience different corrosion mechanisms, including microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). MIC, a form of biodeterioration initiated by microorganisms, can have a devastating impact on the reliability and lifetime of buried installations. This paper provides a systematic investigation of a severe MIC-related failure in a buried amine pipeline and includes a detailed microstructural analysis, corrosion products/biofilm analyses, and monitoring of the presence of causative microorganisms. Conclusions were drawn based on experimental data, obtained from visual observations, optical/electron microscopy, and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS)/X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analyses. Additionally, monitoring the presence of causative microorganisms, especially sulfate-reducing bacteria which play the main role in corrosion, was performed. The results confirmed that the failure, in this case, is attributable to sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), which is a long-known key group of microorganisms when it comes to microbial corrosion.

Abstract:
Abstract Metallic materials are widely utilized in the fields of industry, agriculture, transportation and daily life for their high mechanical strength, and relatively low cost. However, the microorganisms that are widely distributed in surroundings can have complicated interactive reactions with metallic materials. The microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) has caused serious economic losses and resource wastage for human society. To date, great efforts have been made in the mechanism of MIC and control methods. This work describes the research findings on MIC developed in the recent years, and studies on the common microbial species that affect metal corrosion. The other aim of this paper is to review the accelerating or inhibiting mechanism in metal corrosion. Also, it provides an outlook for research on MIC.

Abstract:
This project was developed in partnership with Aberdeen Harbour Board to assess the likelihood of MIC occurrence on steel pilings in Aberdeen Harbour, and to predict the effect of various environmental variables on this process. The literature review (Chapter 1) describes the corrosion process and presents the evidence for the role of microorganisms in aggressive forms of localised corrosion. Chapter 3 details the development of general methods that were then used in subsequent experimental chapters. Data from various surveys carried out in Aberdeen Harbour were analysed in Chapter 4 for pertinent information. This information was used to plan microcosm experiments (reported in chapter 5) designed to mimic field conditions in Aberdeen Harbour. These microcosm experiments were initially carried out over a range of temperatures (100C to 300C) and corrosion rate increased as temperature increased. The initial microcosm experiment demonstrated that carbon addition had little effect on corrosion rate, whereas N & P addition increased corrosion rates, both biotically and abiotically. The second microcosm experiment, reported in Chapter 6, demonstrated that the addition of a sediment bacterial inoculum did not affect bacterial population densities or rate of steel weight loss, suggesting that an inoculum from the water column alone would suffice to produce a biofilm containing SRB and thiobacilli that may affect steel corrosion. The third microcosm experiment presented in Chapter 7, demonstrated that although increased light intensity caused an increase in the rate of corrosion, the effect was abiotic, rather than biotic. The field experiment carried out in Aberdeen Harbour, and reported in Chapter 8, showed that in situ corrosion processes were similar to those observed in the laboratory. The findings from this research project can be used by Aberdeen Harbour Board to develop strategies that will help predict the occurrence, and severity, of MIC within the harbour.

Abstract:
Damage from Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion in the United States has been estimated to cost in excess of $250 billion annually. The industries most affected include oil production, water distribution, and power generation. For this reason, Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion, commonly referred to as MIC, has been the subject of many papers. Since the majority of papers are written from the viewpoint of the microbiologist, it is the intent of this paper to explain MIC in the context of classical corrosion theory, with the ultimate goal being to provide the power plant engineer with guidance on heat exchanger tube materials and how to prevent MIC in heat exchanger tubing.

Abstract:
The last years Statoil has replaced some of our seabed mooring chain segments. Some of these chains have corrosion pits caused by Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC). In 2016 and 2017 one full length of a seabed chain segment, including anchor, was retrieved from a SEMI at approximately 300m water depth in the North Sea. The chain has been 20 years on the seabed. The corrosion on the chain was carefully documented, and showed significant levels of MIC. The extent of the MIC showed a strong dependency on seabed contact and how well the chain was buried in the sediments. The observed MIC is caused by Sulphate Reducing Bacteria (SRB). After corrosion identification, the chain has also been subject to full scale fatigue testing. This paper presents the technical condition of the seabed mooring chain, describing the different levels of MIC, typical SRB corrosion attacks, and the results from the fatigue testing.

Abstract:
During a post-installation inspection of a polyester and chain mooring system in water depths of approximately 6,000 ft, evidence of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) was found in the form of rust tubercles known as rusticles. These porous concretions commonly form on submerged steel shipwrecks and provide evidence that subsea corrosion occurs in a hypoxic environment. Iron and sulfate-reducing bacteria cause corrosion in marine environments. This paper will discuss one form of MIC found on submerged steel structures, analyze the ambient conditions required for MIC to occur, and compare rusticles found during the mooring inspection to those found on other subsea shipwrecks such as the RMS Titanic. An analysis of the type of iron used in mooring chains and the rate of rusticle formation will be presented. Possible remedies to prevent rusticle growth on mooring chains will be summarized.

Abstract:
Abstract The objective of this paper is to explain the beneficial information obtained during a microbiological study of an oilfield survey, where molecular microbiology techniques where utilised. The inclusion of these techniques highlighted information that would have otherwise been missed and/or misinterpreted. The molecular microbiology techniques deployed during this survey included Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). The aim of PCR technology is to specifically increase a target (gene) from an undetectable amount of starting material. The first step is extraction of DNA from the sample, which will subsequently be subjected to the qPCR technology. During qPCR gene copies are made during thermocycling and a fluorescent marker accumulates, which can be used to quantify the target gene. Similar to the PCR technology, DNA is extracted from the sample and the DNA is amplified. In NGS, this is then sorted into a library of small DNA segments before they are amplified. During the sequencing step each DNA fragment amplified is sequentially identified from light signals emitted by comparing with a DNA library. The results obtained indicated crucial additional information that was not detected by traditional methods. In addition to much higher, truer quantification of known populations of Total Prokaryotes and Sulphate Reducing Prokaryotes, identification of other groups of DNA was possible through the NGS technique analysis. The results provided valuable information, which has subsequently been used to apply successful, targeted mitigation strategies to reduce the risk of MIC to assets.
