Prior to the implementation of CO2 injection EOR projects, the screening evaluation of candidate reservoirs will promote the economic benefits of CO2 injection. Currently, a uniform screening method for CO2 miscible flooding does not exist. Based on more than 112 successfully implemented CO2 miscible flooding reservoirs, which was referred in 2010 Worldwide EOR Survey, and CO2 miscible flooding...

At present no company develops oil and gas fields without constructing geologic and hydrodynamic models. This is due in particular to the fact that recently the emphasis in design, planning and monitoring has shifted to overdissected and low-permeability reservoirs. To assess economic efficiency and optimal placement of wells and to predict hydrocarbon production levels, it is important to have...

Reservoirs in the southern Pennines have been investigated to determine their potential for reconstructing a history of atmospheric pollution. A selection procedure has been used to identify sites with the best chance of obtaining a usable sedimentary record prior to sample collection. Five reservoirs were selected for core collection and sediment analysis using magnetic susceptibility (%if), p...

The fossil record and systematics of murid rodents, reservoirs of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Palaearctic, Oriental, African, Nearctic and Neotropical, strongly support a Palaearctic origin of Leishmania. The fossil record and systematics of phlebotomine sand flies reinforce this idea. Interpretations of molecular data that place the origin of Leishmania in the Neotropical are incon...

On the basis of the analysis of the basic information of the river basin reservoirs and application of chaotic ant swarm algorithm, the medium-and long-term optimization operation model is established, which regards the maximum annual generation capacity of the cascade hydropower stations as the main purpose. The simulation result shows the algorithm improves the total annual power generation o...

This report describes the assessment of three specific safety-related specifications in the consideration of an alternate oxygenator; first the grip strength relationship between various oxygenator connectors and SMARxT tubing, second, the grip strength of various biopassive tubings and an isolated SMARxT connector, and finally, the accuracy of the arterial outlet temperature measurement. Grip ...

decline curve analysis has some advantages over transient well test analysis in which it is not required to shut-in the well and also wellbore storage effects do not exist. few studies have been done on decline curve analysis of naturally fractured reservoirs but there are even some limitations with available models. on the other hand well test could be expensive and in some operational conditi...
