Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Contribution of the CDP Gathers and Pre-Stack Seismic Inversion in the Prospect Evaluation: A Case Study of El Mansoura Field, Nile Delta, EgyptMohamed Hussein, Ahmed Abu El-Ata, Mohamed El-BehiryThis case study showing the usefulness of the Common Depth Point (CDP’s) analysis to assess the amplitude response which is similar at two cases (gas-bearing and dry sands) after stack, using the Amplitude Versus Offset (AVO) analysis and the pre-stack inversion to understand the reservoir configuration and its relationship to the different amplitude response. The results led to a high … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 24 Jul 2019 · 7,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReal-Time Simulation Method Using Monte Carlo and Clustering Algorithms: A Case Study Covering Drill Bit WearRodolfo Wilvert Reitz, Paulo José de Freitas FilhoMinimization of the cost of drilling an oil well is primarily achieved by reducing the operation completion time, which in turn can be achieved by increasing the Rate of Penetration (ROP). The ROP is the result of a combination of factors, such as lithological formation, operational parameters and bit wear. This paper addresses bit wear during drilling, using a method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 27 Feb 2018 · 8,217 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContinuous Wavelet Transform Based Spectral Decomposition of 3d Seismic Data for Reservoir Characterization in Oyi Field, se Niger DeltaChukwuemeka Ngozi Ehirim, Andifon Sylvester AkpanContinuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) is one of the most used wavelet transform based spectral decomposition methods in the direct detection of hydrocarbons and as an indicator of stratigraphic variability due to its optimal time-frequency resolution and variable time window requirements. CWT based spectral decomposition was applied on a 3D Post Stack Time Migrated (PSTM) seismic data acquired over a producing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 28 Apr 2017 · 7,796 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Subsurface Appraisal: A Key Link to the Success of Development Projects-Few ExamplesVirendra Singh, Ivan Yemez, Elena Izaguirre, Alvaro RaceroDuring exploration and production phases, the life of a hydrocarbon field can be distinguished by five main stages: Exploration, appraisal, development, production and abandonment. Of particular interest is the appraisal stage, where billions of dollars are spent across the oil and gas industry on data gathering activities with a view to reducing subsurface uncertainties towards optimizing reservoir development and management. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 13 Jan 2017 · 8,522 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysic-Geographic Factors of Oil Development in the Chechen RepublicUmar Tashadievich Gayrabekov, Alexey Nikolaevich Gunja, Tumisha Khamidovna BachaevaOil development in the Chechen Republic for a long time has led to formation of widespread and inwardly heterogeneous area of oil development business impact on the natural complexes in the neighborhood. Therefore, authors have set the goal of detecting physic-geographical factors of the area where oil has been intensively developed for almost two centuries. The research made by the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 16 Jan 2015 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation and Beneficiation of Bentonitic Clays from Pindiga Formation in Benue TroughB. B.M. Dewu, I. I. Funtua, M. O.A. Oladipo et al.Problem statement: This study aimed at evaluating and beneficiating Bentonitic clays of Pindiga Formation from the upper Benue trough in northeastern Nigeria to meet the standard required for use in oil well drilling. This will reduce the dependence on imported Bentonite into the country, increase foreign exchange, improve the country’s economy and create employment opportunities. Approach: Three clay samples from … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 16 Jan 2012 · 8,570 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Fully Coupled Approach for Evaluation of Wellbore Stability in Hydrocarbon ReservoirsVera RoccaProblem statement: When a well is drilled in a hydrocarbon reservoir, the original thermodynamic conditions are altered, the natural stresses are redistributed and a stress concentration occurs around the hole. The alteration of the original equilibrium can lead to wellbore damage, sometimes to its complete collapse. Loss of time associated with stability problems is estimated to account for 12-15% of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,564 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCalculation of Total Cost, Tolerance Based on Taguchi's, Asymmetric Quality Loss Function ApproachR. Sampath Kumar, N. Alagumurthi, R. RameshProblem statement: Current world market force the manufacturing sectors to develop high quality product and process design with minimum possible cost. About 80% of problems in production units may be attributed to 20% of design tolerance causes. While design typically represents the smallest actual cost elements in products (around 5%), it leverages the largest cost influence (around 70%). So design … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,052 accessesView PDFCite
