Goals include the development of models and methods that explain observed material and acoustic properties of different physical types of shallow-ocean mud sediments. Other goals are to assess prior data relating to the acoustic properties of mud and to provide guidance in the development and interpretation of experiments. A related goal is to construct models that will guide inversion techniqu...

optimization of drilling fluid parameters such as mud weight, salt concentration, and temperature is essential to alleviate instability problems during drilling through shale sections. the selection of suitable mud parameters can benefit from analyses that consider significant instability processes involved in shale-drilling–fluid interactions. this paper describes the development of analytical...

Conventional reservoir drill-in fluids used for drilling reservoirs in Weizhou Oilfield encounter rheological problems that result technical such as hole-cleaning openhole horizontal intervals. Hence, novel fluid was developed by optimizing the additive quantity and particle size distribution. Lab tests showed boast high low shearing rate viscosity, provide promising cutting, carrying, suspensi...

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched related donor (MRD) and matched unrelated donors (MUD) produces similar survival for patients with acute myelogenous leukemia. Whether these results can be extended to patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) is unknown. Therefore, analysis of post-HCT outcomes for MDS was performed. Outcomes of ...

A batch experiment was conducted to compare the Cu scavenging capacity between two different red mud types: the first one was a highly basic red mud derived from a combined sintering and Bayer process, and the second one was a seawater-neutralized red mud derived from the Bayer process. The first red mud contained substantial amounts of CaCO3, which, in combination with the high OH activity, fa...

Weight on the bit is accomplished by running in the hole, between the bit and the drill pipe, several lengths of extremely heavy thick-walled pipe, called “drill collars”. Drill pipe may weigh up to 30 kg/m. Drill collars, of larger diameter than drill pipe and of constant diameter throughout, can weigh up to IS0 kg/m. The full hanging weight of the whole assembly in the blocks in the derrick (...

Polyanionic cellulose polymer is used as an additive in drilling mud in order to decrease water loss and mudcake- thickness. In this study effect of bulk and nanosize polyanionic cellulose on water loss and mud-cakethickness in mud drilling is investigated. Polyanionic cellulose nanoparticles are made by using of ball milling. Size of nanoparticles is measured by Particle size analyzer. Polyani...

The feasibility of applying a self-adaptive filter to eliminate noise in the downhole mud pressure phase shift keying (PSK) signals is studied. The self-adaptive filter with carrier wave as the filter input signal and mud pressure PSK signal including noise as the filter expected input signal in structure was adopted to process the mud pressure PSK signals with the broadband signal characterist...

this study evaluated direct drilling planters used for wheat cultivation in khorasan-e razavi province. a randomized complete block design with three replications was used. the treatments were direct drilling of wheat plants into wheat residue using the following direct planters: (1) sfoggia (13-25), (2) baldan (spd3000), (3) tondar (spd 2500), (4) semeato (shm 11/13). the parameters measured w...
