Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuses Running on GasRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Today, the transport problem is not only very diverse and complex but also highly disputed in terms of the optimal way of achieving modern and ecological transports. The energy and social crisis that occurred in the 1970s and 1980s, which then haunted the planet repeatedly, becoming a major crisis, could be successfully avoided by postponing and reprogramming until mankind managed … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2018 · 7,537 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 abstractNew Approach in Application of the AHP–Fuzzy TOPSIS Method in Mineral Potential Mapping of the Natural Bitumen (Gilsonite): A Case Study from the Gilan-e-Gharb Block, the Kermanshah, West of IranElham Rahimi, Younes Shekarian, Salman Mastri Farahani et al.The Gilan-e-Gharb block is known as a prospective area for hydrocarbon resources in the form of oil, gas in deep potential and natural bitumen (Gilsonite) on the surface. Natural bitumen is not clearly detectable by geochemical or geophysical methods. Hereupon, identifying high potential areas for further exploration, attempted with the help of AHP-Fuzzy and TOPSIS methods. The comprehensive database of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2020 · 7,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeterogeneities and Intra Sand-Body Compartmentalization in Late Oligocene Delta-Front Deposit, Niger Delta, NigeriaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiThis paper presents the study of the heterogeneity in lithofacies, porosity, permeability, mineral grain density, pore-throats sizes and hydraulic rock types and the intra sand-body compartmentalization in cored delta-front deposit of Greater Ughelli depobelt of Niger Delta. Sedimentological study of core samples results in the identification of nine lithofacies and the interpretation of environments of deposition as mainly proximal and … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2016 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal Petroleum Hydrocarbons By Gas Chromatography in Colombian Waters and SoilsC.. González, S. Roa, A. Suspes et al.Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPHs) were required by the Colombian Environmental Authorities. However, the great diversity of hydrocarbon sources, in addition to the variety of available techniques and analytical methods had created confusion among the users of the data in regards to the appropriate methodologies. This study presents the results obtained in the method validation for the determination of TPHs in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 20 Jun 2012 · 9,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Bio-Fuel Blends and Fuel Injection Pressure on Diesel Engine Emission for Sustainable EnvironmentKandasamy Muralidharan, Palanisamy GovindarajanProblem statement: Diesel engine emits more pollutants to atmosphere causing air pollution. This necessitates the search of a renewable alternate fuel which is environment friendly. The objective of this research was to investigate the environmental aspects of pongamia bio-fuel in a single cylinder diesel engine with the influence of fuel injection pressure. Approach: Bio-fuel was prepared from non-edible Pongamia pinnata … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2011 · 7,317 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixed-Polarity Azeotropic Solvents for Efficient Extraction of Lipids from Nannochloropsis MicroalgaeRobert D. Long, Elseddik AbdelkaderProblem statement: The extraction of lipids from microalgae for biofuel production is a significant problem due to the intractability of their cell wall. The aim of this study of lipid extraction from Nannochloropsis microalgae was to examine the relative efficiencies of some commonly used solvent systems and test the use of co-boiling solvents in Soxhlet extraction as an improved method. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 12 Aug 2011 · 9,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Crude Oil and Spent Oil on Clarias garipinus: A Typical Marine FishA. M. Gbadebo, A. M. Taiwo, O. B. OlaProblem statement: Petroleum hydrocarbon and petroleum residue (i.e., spent oil) remains the foremost pollutants to the fish communities in various aquatic media-ponds, streams, rivers, creeks, coastal and marine environments through indiscriminate disposal of oil contaminated drilling muds, cutting and oil spillages. Approach: Also, the spent oil enters into aquatic media through run-off following unguided disposal. Both the petroleum hydrocarbon and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,470 accessesView PDFCite
