Strengthening Institutions for Stakeholder Involvement and Ecosystem-Based Management in the US Arctic Offshore
" The nation's current approach to managing the use of ocean resources is ad hoc and fragmented, with no systematic way to evaluate competing ocean uses and to inform and navigate the often difficult trade-off decisions they require. The nation needs a 'comprehensive, integrated, ecosystem-based' framework for coastal and marine spatial planning that " addresses conserva-T he dramatic run-up in...
متن کاملSPOTLIGHT: Personal Natural Resource Consumption Profiler
The impending energy and natural resource crisis forces us to research innovative ways of optimizing our resource consumption. Recent studies have shown that a better understanding of an individual’s energy consumption helps people to lower their energy footprint significantly. We propose SPOTLIGHT, a system that profiles an individual's natural resource consumption pattern in real time using w...
متن کاملDetermination of Time of Oil Cracking into Gas in Weiyuan Paleo-Oil Pool in Sichuan Basin, South China
Weiyuan gas field, located in the Sichuan basin of south China, is a large marine gas field with the oldest reservoir (the Sinian sequences) in south China. The hydrocarbon origin of the gas field has long been debated by petroleum geologists. Recently, it was recognized that a paleo-oil pool maybe the significant contributor to the gas field. Consequently, when the paleo-oil pool had been crac...
متن کاملApplication of Robotics in Oil and Gas Refineries
The oil and gas industry will continue to boom in the coming future. Obtaining oil and gas from conventional and non-conventional resources will become more and more challenging. This intensifying need will impose very considerable demands on work force, financial and technology capabilities. Since the future supplies of oil and gas are to expand, advanced technology will become increasingly ne...
متن کاملMulticomponent mass transfer across water "lms during hydrocarbon gas injection
Understanding the dynamics of pore-scale multicomponent gas and oil mass transfer across water "lms during hydrocarbon gas injection in petroleum reservoirs is important in the design of tertiary oil recovery schemes at the "eld scale. The water "lms prevent oil and gas coming into direct contact and, for miscible gas injection, delay the onset of miscibility. We use a pore-scale model to descr...
