There seems to be more anecdotal evidence these (early) caverns are slowly
filling up with more oil, not just from the seams bleeding out due to
the removal of the primary oil by reduction in pressure but other factors.

There was an article in the local paper about 4 years ago by a US
scientist/enthusiast/professor that suggested the surrounding seams
held a huge amount of bacteria and organic feedstocks and the oil
we traditionally have drawn off releases the pressure and by virtue of
this allows the trapped bacteria in the surrounding seams to accelerate
their decomposition of the feedstocks to further spill oil into those
caverns. There are supposedly many fields which have been revisited
some 5 to 15 years after being tested as unviable in terms of flow
and "voila" finding rather more oil then expected ... !

Does any one know if studies have been done on crude to determine if
there are any remnants of bacterial activity present, not just from
200 or so million yearfs ago but as a result of more or less contemporary
activity ?
