Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGeobody Architecture and Petroleum Potential of the Yowi Field, Offshore Eastern Niger Delta, NigeriaPrince Suka Momta, Minapuye Isaac OdigiA study on geobody architecture and petroleum potential of the Yowi Field has been carried out by integrating well logs and 3D seismic data. The objectives of this study include: The determination of the lateral continuity of key horizons; identification of gross geobody distribution and architecture; and the petroleum potential of the field. Well log correlation shows that key horizons … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2015 · 7,669 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSedimentology and Depositional Environment of D2 Sand in Part of Greater Ughelli Depobelt, Onshore Niger Delta, NigeriaPrince Suka Momta, Jonathan O. Omoboh, Minapuye I. OdigiThe sedimentology and depositional environment of D2 sand in part of the Greater Ughelli depobelt have been studied using well logs and core data. Three wells were correlated to establish the lateral continuity of the D2 sand across the field and standard gamma ray log trends was used to infer depositional environments. Cored section of well B was described to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 19 Sep 2015 · 8,585 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSedimentology and Ichnology of Late Oligocene Delta Front Reservoir Sandstone Deposit, Greater Ughelli Depobelt, Niger DeltaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiSedimentological and ichnological study of cored reservoir sands correlated with wireline logs between two wells, 0.8 km distance apart along dip direction, enabled vertical and cross sectional facies variability assessment aimed at determining intra sand-body continuity in longitudinal or down-dip direction; and sub-environments of deposition and factors that controlled depositional processes. Ten lithofacies described 62 meters cores of the reservoir … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 30 Jul 2015 · 7,829 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPetroleum Hydrocarbon Pollution of Mangrove Swamps: The Promises of Remediation by Enhanced Natural AttenuationF. A. Orji, A. A. Ibiene, O. C. UgboguProblem statement: The Remediation by Enhanced Natural Attenuation (RENA) is currently being used as a cleanup technology in polluted environments in the Niger Delta and other parts of the globe. The effectiveness of RENA as a remediation technology in the most recent time has been challenged by few authorities. The deleterious effects of pollutants on the environment have led to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 12 May 2012 · 8,225 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHydrocarbon Biodegrading Potentials of a Proteus vulgaris Strain Isolated from Fish SamplesPatience O. Olajide, L. B. OgbeifunA Proteus vulgaris bacterium SR-1 was isolated from a freshly killed fish sample collected close to the point of crude oil spill in the Niger Delta region, Nigeria. Problem statement: The application of native bacterial species in bioremediation processes has long been desired, because they would be cost effective and efficient in terms of acclimation time. The ability to isolate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 8,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBioremediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbon-Polluted Mangrove Swamps Using Nutrient Formula Produced From Water Hyacint (Eicchornia crassipes)Frank Anayo Orji, Abiye Anthony Ibiene, Phillip O. OkerentugbaLaboratory-scale studies were carried out using a nutrient formula produced from Eicchornia crassipes plant to achieve bioremediation of crude oil impacted mangrove soil. In a 70 day study, the culturable heterotrophic bacterial population of the Eichhornia crassipes recipe increased from 6.26×105 Cfu/g to 2.69×107 Cfu/g. The control set-up had its total culturable bacterial count increased from 5.76×105 Cfu/g to 1.24×106 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,643 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessIn the abstractWell Test and PTA for Reservoir Characterization of Key PropertiesOkotie Sylvester, Ikporo Bibobra, Ogbarode Napoleon OgbonThe characterization of a reservoir is a process which starts from the beginning of the field (oil or gas) discovery and continuous to the field’s abandonment. It quantitatively or qualitatively describes the characteristics of the reservoir using data available. In the determination of key well and reservoir parameters for reservoir characterization, it is very vital to understand the flow phases … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Oct 2015 · 8,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA screen for Benzo(a)pyrene in Fish Samples From Crude Oil Polluted EnvironmentsChimezie Anyakora, Mohsen Arbabi, Herbert CokerSeveral studies have shown that exposure to Benzo(a)pyrene increases the risk of cancer. In this study several fish samples from Niger the Delta region of Nigeria were screened for the presence of Benzo(a)pyrene. The study was carried out using Gas chromatograph coupled to a mass spectrometry detector. Benzo(a)pyrenes in the samples were identified through both retention time match with authentic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,766 accessesView PDFCite
