... and then on a full-scale offshore type drilling rig, where 500m have been drilled completely autonomously. This paper describes the preparation and results of these drilling experiments. Autonomous Drilling System In the context of this paper, autonomous drilling has a different meaning than automated...

... experiment is a 1D linear transport system with relatively low adsorption affinity where adsorption reaches equilibrium quickly. On the other hand, Xe-shale experiment is a 1D radial system with high adsorption affinity and a slow process of reaching equilibrium sorption. Experimental data and input...

... experimental results are similar to previously published CO 2 sorption isotherms for Filtrasorb F400 activated carbon at 318 K ( Gensterblum et al. 2009 ; Pini et al. 2006 ; Sudibandriyo et al., 2003 ). These literature experiments were conducted at 318 K with CO 2 in supercritical state. These conditions...

... volumes was performed by visual metering of fluid levels. This was the case for oleic, emulsion and aqueous phase volumes in the fraction tubes. Elapsed time, differential pressure was recorded during the entirety of each experiment. While Table 4 and Table 5 summarize general experimental parameters...

... properties are given in Table 1 ; fluid properties are taken from NIST WebBook by Linstrom and Mallard (2001) . Table 1 Fluid properties and the experimental parameters. Properties Experiment 1 Experiment 2 Experiment 3 Experiment 4 Experiment 5 Pore Pressure (psi...

... experiments, for scale inhibition and adsorption of chelating agents (static bottle, dynamic filter tube tests) and simulation studies, a novel experimental setup (coreflooding experiments) was proposed to study the inhibitor adsorption. Broad concentrations of high-pH aminocarboxylic acids...

... wall. The experiments aimed to discover if image-matching methods such as SIFT, FLANN, and GRT can use topological features to compute the distance traveled. Visual inspection showed that the image-matching algorithm could correctly match images together based on their similarities. The experimental...

... polymer, acrylamido tertiobutyl sulfonate (ATBS), was used as the profile modification agent and prepared in 200,000 ppm salinity brine. The rheological behavior of the polymer was studied at 70°C at various concentrations. Also, a set of single-phase flooding experiments was performed using coreflooding...

.... The light oil is gasified when being extracted through this single well. Experiments show that up to 50% hydrogen is produced at a gasifier exit with a temperature of 720 ° in the presence of catalysts. A most recent experimental study shows that maximum 53.5% hydrogen is generated from methane cracking...

...−oil two-phase stratified flow wax deposition experiment was carried out with condensate oil and natural gas as the experimental materials. The effect of superficial gas, liquid velocities, and actual liquid velocity on the overall and local deposition was discussed. The overall and local deposit mass...

..." (DRM)language experiment described herein uncovers many unintentional deficits from the preexisting language architecture. Furthermore, the experimental results also show how these deficits translate into red dollars by quantifying lost time due to ineffective communications. For example,just 10...

... within the polymer suspension. In addition, the cutting size strongly influences the carrying capacity of the fibrous fluid. Experimental Study The hole cleaning experiments in this study were carried out in a flow loop with a 48-ft long annular test section (5.5" × 2.375"). Several bed erosion...

.... Table-2 shows the experimental activities related to the fluid-fluid interaction to observe mechanism of oil displacement. Meanwhile Figure-5 shows the rock-fluid interaction experiments. The layout of the coreflood experiment was shown in Figure-5. After the cleaning and drying, the basic properties...

... times. The salinity effect was even less; when decreased ten times, the damage increased about three times, and when decreased fifty times, the damage increased about eight times. The swelling percentage effect had the least impact. However, in particle gel experiments, the experimental protocol...

... The objective of this experiment was to evaluate our Asphaltene Solvent System by performing a dissolution test, wettability test, and stability test to compare with the actual Xylene system and review the advantages and properties of the new system. This solvent system can be tailored...

...., there is no lag so that the fluid front and fracture tip coincide). However, it remains small under laboratory conditions. This is unfortunately a consequence of the low injection rate under experimental conditions. Accordingly, we may expect a small lag in the laboratory experiment, although it is unlikely...

... and the static adsorption experiment. Meanwhile, the spontaneous imbibition experiment combined with CT scanning technology shows that HTPF-NF has longer imbibition distance and higher SIOR. On the basis of summarizing the experimental research, the mechanisms of HTPF-NF to enhance the SIOR are proposed...

Known parameters, such as pellet and powder types, which are known but cannot be controlled; controllable parameters are those that can be controlled, such as experimental conditions. Unknown parameters, such as the filtrate coefficients, can be obtained only after the experiments...
