Within the immediate neighborhood of a displacement front, simulations, especially of inhibitions, should employ unsteady...

... production rate, tend to lift the water- and/or gas- oil interface in a direction perpendicular to the formation bedding plane, whereas the gravity forces tend to separate the oil, gas and water phases. When the viscous forces overcome the gravity forces the gas-oil and water-oil interfaces start to move...

... ABSTRACT In the first part of this paper, two methods are presented for determination of the flow field induced in the neighborhood of a fixed elliptic cylinder by a moving elliptic cylinder. The first and most rigorous method is an extension of the work by Collatz (1963) where the cylinders...

... to these threats. It often delivers the first phase of E&P operations in remote frontier exploration regions, which are attracting increasing interest as developed areas become depleted and demand for hydrocarbons continues to rise. People involved in geophysical operations are usually continuously moving, so...

..., sometimes leading to a source of ambiguity for the real fault location. Quantitative techniques based on seismic attribute analysis are employed to reduce this ambiguity and are the focus of this study. A new numeric method based on the meshless Moving Least Squares (MLS) is used to enhance the fault...

... and supported the upper deck through column, which could drill and complete wells. Through the ballast system, the platform could be floated and moved to another place. From the position- keeping system, submersible platform is a type of gravity platform, which keep the position based on the platform gravity...

... ABSTRACT As the offshore oil industry moves into deeper water, fixed-bottom platforms will be found to exhibit dynamic amplification of wave induced response. The resulting dynamic loads will have a significant effect on the cyclic stresses used in a fatigue analysis. State-of the- art fatigue...

Vehicle coordination is achieved by adjusting the speed command of each vehicle along its path according to information on the positions of a subset of the other vehicles, as determined by the communications topology adopted. We illustrate our design procedure for underwater...

Because of the conditions and amount of materials being moved, eye injuries are a constant concern. While many media...

If you asked a neighbor or friend or even another doctor for a referral, you were networking...

... wells (ISTD-Thermal Wells) has been proposed. As with the thermal blanket, this process is a clean, closed system that is simple and fast. It destroys pollutants in place without having to move the soil. It can be used under roads, foundations and other fixed structures. If required, the thermal wells...

When blasting work has to be performed in the neighborhood of man-made structures the ground vibration is often the factor which finally decides how the blasting is to be performed. Comprehensive data has been collected and published during the last two decades on seismic monitoring, however...
