Glaciological and climatic significance of Hercules Dome, Antarctica: An optimal site for deep ice core drilling
[1] We present glaciological and climatological characteristics of Hercules Dome, Antarctica (86 S, 105 W), which demonstrate its potential as a deep ice core site. Annual layering in dD ratios from a 72 m ice core collected by the US-ITASE 2002 traverse indicate accumulation rates of 0.16–0.20 m/yr ice equivalent over the last 300 years. Age control from stratigraphy seen in the radio-echo sou...
متن کاملFeasibility of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide as a Drilling Fluid for Deep Underbalanced Drilling Operations
Feasibility of drilling with supercritical carbon dioxide to serve the needs of deep underbalanced drilling operations has been analyzed. A case study involving underbalanced drilling to access a depleted gas reservoir is used to illustrate the need for such a research. For this well, nitrogen was initially considered as the drilling fluid. Dry nitrogen, due to its low density, was unable to ge...
متن کاملChallenges for coring deep permafrost on Earth and Mars.
A scientific drilling expedition to the High Lake region of Nunavut, Canada, was recently completed with the goals of collecting samples and delineating gradients in salinity, gas composition, pH, pe, and microbial abundance in a 400 m thick permafrost zone and accessing the underlying pristine subpermafrost brine. With a triple-barrel wireline tool and the use of stringent quality assurance an...
متن کاملButyl 2-(3-benzoylthioureido)acetate
In the title compound, C(14)H(18)N(2)O(3)S, the butyl acetate fragment and the benzoyl group adopt a cis-trans configuration, respectively, with respect to the thiono S atom across the C-N bonds. In the crystal packing, the mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form a one-dimensional chain along the c axis. The terminal butyl C atom is disordered with occupa...
متن کاملEXPERIMENT AND APPLICATION OF AN ANNULAR FOAM BREAKER FOR FOAM DRILLING FLUID (RESEARCH NOTE)
The annular foam breaker is one which uses the vacuum and shear force generated by the Coanda effect to break foam. Its effectiveness in destroying drilling foam has been test in wellbore flow simulation loop experimental stand. Experimental results showed that the operating pressure of the annular foam breaker should be larger than 0.6MPa and the stabilizers concentration of the foam drilling ...
