Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrain Size Distribution Characteristics Variation in Oily Contaminated Sandy Soils Due to Long Term Aging Effect in Al-Ahmadi Field at KuwaitHumoud Melfi Aldaihani, Fahad A. Alotaibi, Farraj F. Al-ajmiAlmost three decades on, the negative environmental impacts arising from the burning of over 600 oil wells in Kuwait following the 1991 Gulf War are still evident. At the time of the incident, the Kuwaiti desert region became polluted with hydrocarbon, with a number of ‘oil lakes’ forming, causing critical harm to local land. This paper discusses the shifts in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 10 · 23 Nov 2018 · 8,409 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPresentation of Romanian Engineers who Contributed to the Development of Global Aeronautics – Part IRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.It is said that "the Romanian is born poet". And so it is, but we could say rather that "the Romanian is born and an engineer", having deeply embedded himself, the vocation of the builder, the innovator, the inventor. The great cathedrals, the beautiful monasteries built, or even the churches and churches (built or wooden) clearly show this vocation. After … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 1 Dec 2017 · 7,278 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Estimation of Geotherm for Multi Layer Model from Heat Flow Equation: A Case Study of Parts of Chad Sedimentary Basin, NigeriaEmujakporue Godwin OmokenuThe subsurface temperature distribution of part of Chad sedimentary basin has been determined by applying analytical solution for multi-layer-model in solving the 1-D steady state conductive heat flow equation. Four-layer model was adopted because the Chad basin is made up of four lithostratigraphies. In this model, equilibrium geotherm of the four layers was computed by considering each layer separately while … …Physics International, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 6 Oct 2017 · 8,314 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPetrophysical Properties Distribution Modelling of an Onshore Field, Niger Delta, NigeriaGodwin Omokenu EmujakporueThis research is based on the modelling of petrophysical parameters distribution of an onshore oil field in Niger Delta. The methodology involves the construction of 3-D grids that represent the reservoir geometry, accompany by property modeling where the 3-D grids were populated with petrophysical properties (porosity, water saturation, net to gross ratio, facies and permeability). The objective is to construct … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2017 · 14,182 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study on the Influence of Fault on the Seepage and Stress Field of FormationYongxiang Zheng, Jianjun Liu, Bohu Zhang, Yue SunIn the process of water injection in oil field, the fault will affect the seepage field and stress field of the formation, which leads to the deformation and destruction of the formation. Therefore, more casing damage wells are found around the fault. In order to study the influence of fault on the formation in the process of water injection, a … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2017 · 7,344 accessesView PDF Cite

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 · 8,516 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Parameters of Selection and Replacement Drilling Bits Based on Geo-Mechanical Factors: (Case Study: Gas and Oil Reservoir in the Southwest of Iran)Arzhang NabilouThe purpose of the present study was to explore the effect of drill bit selection parameters on enhanced oil and gas recovery fin Iranian oil and gas fields. In this study, many methods and parameters were discussed. These parameters are practically tested on many wells in southwestern field of Iran. Out of common drill bit selection methods, length unit drilling … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 9 May 2016 · 8,362 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStage Specificity of Eurycomanone Isolated from Eurycoma longifolia on Plasmodium falciparum CyclesEti Nurwening Sholikhah, Mahardika Agus Wijayanti, Ratna Asmah Susidarti et al.Eurycomanone is the most active compounds in the roots of Eurycoma longifolia and shown to have in vitro antiplasmodial activity. However, the stage of Plasmodium falciparum cycles which are sensitive to eurycomanone have not been investigated. This study was conducted to investigate stage specificity of eurycomanone at various stages of P. falciparum life cycles. Stage specificity of eurycomanone at various … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2016 · 7,739 accessesView PDF Cite
