Environmentally-efficient approaches to oil and gas producing sites

consequence analysis of the leakage, ignition and explosion during high pressure sour gas injection process to the oil reservoir

there is no doubt that human being needs to become integrated with industry and industry needs to be progressed, daily. on the other hand, serious events in industrial units specially in oil industries has been shown that such damages and events are industry related ones. the consequence of such events and damages which resulted in chemical and poisoned explosions and loss of life and property ...

Future Issues and Approaches to Health Monitoring and Failure Prevention for Oil-Free Gas Turbines

Recent technology advances in foil air bearings, high temperature solid lubricants and computer based modeling has enabled the development of small Oil-Free gas turbines. These turbomachines are currently commercialized as small (<100 kW) microturbine generators and larger machines are being developed. Based upon these successes and the high potential payoffs offered by Oil-Free systems, NASA, ...

Efficient and Environmentally Sound Use of Our Domestic Coal and Natural Gas Resources

There are presently wide disagreements among experts concerning the future availability and price of petroleum and natural gas both domestically and worldwide. If these resources are to be available to future generations at affordable prices, then the technological challenge is to use these resources in ways that offer the greatest economic benefit and the minimum environmental damage. Petroleu...

Life Cycle Engineering in the Oil and Gas Industries, with Reference to Hydrodesulphurization of Gas Oil

Gas-oil Ratio and Water-oil Ratio

An indicator of bypassing is a premature drop in gas-oil ratio; i.e., earlier than expected collapse of gas saturation. Early gas collapse (water fillup) may indicate that channeling has occurred. In layered reservoirs with no or little vertical crossflow, water injection in an initially depressurized layer will cause GOR to drop rapidly. Often naturally fractured reservoirs exhibit fast gas co...
