Numerous onshore oil production wells currently exist, and the petroleum hydrocarbon contamination of the surrounding soil caused by oil production wells is not well understood. Moreover, the impact of the distribution of the total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) in the soil on the microbiota requires further investigation. Accordingly, in this study, the distribution of petroleum hydrocarbons in the soils around oil production wells was investigated, and their alteration of the microbiota was revealed. The results revealed that in the horizontal direction, the heavily TPH-contaminated soils were mainly distributed within a circle with a radius of 200 cm centered on the oil production well; and in the vertical direction, the heavily TPH-contaminated soils were distributed within the 0–50 cm soil layer. A significant positive correlation was found between the microbial abundance and the TPH concentration in the soil with relatively low total carbon contents. Heavy TPH contamination (TPH concentration of >3000 mg/kg) significantly reduced the microbial diversity and altered the microbiota compared with the light TPH contamination (TPH concentration of around 1000 mg/kg). In the heavily TPH-contaminated soils, the relative abundances of the Proteobacteria and Bacteroides increased significantly; the network complexity among the soil microorganisms decreased; and the co-occurrence patterns were altered. In summary, the results of this study have reference value in the remediation of soils around oil production wells and provide guidance for the construction of microbial remediation systems for petroleum contamination.
