Some scientists believe OIL is produced as a byproduct of nanobacteria
metabolic processes (possibly in association with a deep planetary
process). Questions:

01) I am looking for any documents discussing the theory?

02) I am looking for a name I can contact?

Hi,

It is true that some theory exists saying the source for oil is not
formed from the decomposition of dead lifeforms, but bacteria. The
theory is widely attributed to Thomas Gold, Cornell University
Professor emeritus of astronomy.

The many molecules of unquestionably biological origin in petroleum -
hopanes, pristine, phytane, steranes, certain porphyrins - can all be
produced by bacteria, and such microbial life at depth is indeed now
seen to be widespread.

You may want to check out his book on the subject:

Doing a Google search with the keywords

"Thomas Gold" oil bacteria

also brings other links that discuss the theory. Some of the links
include:
