Raw Sequence Reads from Oil Production Platforms near the Atlantic shelf of Africa in the Gulf of Guinea

DNA was extracted from Oil Production Platforms near the Atlantic shelf of Africa in the Gulf of Guinea to better understand their resident microbiota. Specifically, tracking microbial sulfate-reducing activity and community composition on board off shore oil production platforms can be used to target certain sites for increased attention and direct operational practices to help control biocorrosion.

为更好地解析非洲几内亚湾大西洋陆架周边海上石油生产平台中的本土微生物群（resident microbiota），研究人员从该类平台中提取了DNA。具体而言，对海上石油生产平台上的微生物硫酸盐还原活性与群落组成开展追踪监测，可用于锁定需强化关注的特定站点，并指导现场运维操作，从而助力防控生物腐蚀（biocorrosion）。
