| Introduction |
| |
| The Institute of Biotechnology &
Geotectonics Studies (INBIGS) was founded in 1989 at Jorhat,
Assam in the green surroundings of North-East part of India.
Assam was the pioneer in crude oil production and has a number
of oil fields. The North-East region was selected to locate
INBIGS in view of its rich flora & fauna and marked tectonic
movements. |

Biotechnology being an emerging branch of science is going
to be the buzz word of 21st century. In Petroleum sector,
it plays a vital role in geo-microbial prospecting, enhancing
oil recovery from reservoir and environment protection by
bioremediation of oily waste. INBIGS is engaged in the innovative
research of petroleum biotechnology through a talented and
dedicated team of bio-scientists.
The prime objectives of INBIGS are:
To
take up innovative research in two emerging frontier areas
of Petroleum Biotechnology &
Geotectonics through talented, dedicated
and highly motivated team of bioscientists.
To
provide support to industries involved in hydrocabrbon exploration,
exploitation and other
related activities.
