Metagenome-assembled genomes of the methanogenic enrichment obtained from drilling fluid wastes stored in permafrost.

We studied methanogenic enrichment (Kha) from spent drilling fluid stored in permafrost, Kharasavey (71°10'50″N 66°51'50″E) gas field located in the western part of the Yamal Peninsula. The metagenome-assembled genomes showed that Kha consists of representatives of Methanosarcina, Methanobacterium, Proteinifillum, and Synergistetes genera.
