[quote:Anonymous Coward 24647276:MV8xMTEzNTg2XzMzNjY4MDc4X0MwMjAyMDk2] [quote:Anonymous Coward 24614172:MV8xMTEzNTg2XzMzNjY1MzQyX0ZCRjRGQ0NG] [quote:Anonymous Coward 24647276:MV8xMTEzNTg2XzMzNjY0NzM3XzdCNkE1MTNF] No one is suggesting, at K implies, that the diesel bug is Augie. Merely, the statement is made that "diesel bug" lives in water and feeds on oil at the layer where the oil starts to float. Diesel bugs are fact. The suggestion is that Augie is Synthia mutated with diesel bug and we get the same kind of slime fungus, splash-zone effect that we do with diesel bug. This bug fungus slime can and and does go onshore, or on boats, etc. It is a fact that diesel bug slime/splash-zone can go onshore, or boats, etc. Diesel bug slime will adhere to boats and is probably heavy and affects the mobility of the vessel. It is a fact that diesel bug in the fuel lines and engine components will affect the operation of the engine. About the vessel reported to be making a "Z" formation run, we know that hydrochloric acid will kill diesel bug ... and likely Augie/Synthia. This vessel may have been dispensing acid/corexit in a heavily infected area. [/quote] This is kind of a crazy idea but I know that Acid Producing Bacteria are commonly found in oil production facilities and are implicated in Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion of oil pipelines. If I remember correctly, they can be found in oil facility production waters, and tend to be found in biofilms, nodules and slime. When production waters are sent to labs for analysis in respect to pipeline failures, APBs are tested for, along with Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRBs), Iron Reducing Bacteria (IRBs), Denitrifying Bacteria (DNBs), Epifluorescence and Heterotrophic Bacteria (HPCs). Is it possible that APBs there have been mutated causing them to produce much stronger acids than usual? Yeah, I said it was kind of crazy......... [/quote] I'm more familiar with marine diesel bugs, which will corrode fuel tanks in boats if the slime is not removed and the tank cleaned. Diesel bugs live only where there is water and oil, meaning that you should keep your tanks dry and your engines running. If you have oil, or fuel, and no water the bug fungus does not form. I suppose that the problem in pipelines comes from condensation mixing with the oil. [/quote]
