As a microbiology laboratory, MicroPro has specialized in service and research work in the fields of geomicrobiology and applied microbiology for over 50 years. For analyses on samples from caverns or porous reservoirs, we conduct customized microbiological tests under field-relevant conditions (e.g. under high pressure). 
One focus of our work is the evaluation and risk assessment of underground storage of renewable hydrogen.
