Even if it works - the oil companies or govt will make them go away.

First of all I doubt that this biological process even works as advertised. Secondly, it's a big difference pumping crude from a well and waiting for a microorganism to excrete a meaningful amount. Could the process be scaled-up to produce refineable amounts of oil?

Maybe, but it's still less trouble to pump out the trillions of barrels of sweet crude under the Rockie's.

Much of this lessor known oil in under Government lands, we could pump it to help out the treasury.
