A significant share of the world's undiscovered oil and natural gas resources are assumed to lie under the seabed of the Arctic Ocean. Up until now, the exploitation of the resources especially under the European Arctic has largely been prevented by the challenges posed by sea ice coverage, harsh weather conditions, darkness, remoteness of the fields, and lack of infrastructure. Gradual warming...

Miscible gas injection is one of the most effective enhanced oil recovery techniques and minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) is an important parameter in miscible gas injection processes. The accurate determination of this parameter is critical for an adequate design of injection equipment investment prospect. The purpose of this paper is to develop a new universal artificial neural network (U-A...

kharg island as the most important oil export terminal of iran has faced entrance of various oilmaterials, so it seems necessary to know about the amount of these marine oil pollutants and their origin in this area. oil hydrocarbons has entered in this water body as a result of numerous human activities like extraction, refinement, transmission and export of raw oil or from natural and biologic...

In this article, the U.S. and southern Canadian natural gas supply market is considered. An important model for oil and natural gas supply is the Hubbert curve. Not all regions of the world are producing oil or natural gas following a Hubbert curve, even when price and market conditions are accounted for. One reason is that institutions are affecting supply. We investigate the possible effects ...

investment in oil and gas upstream activities is very important for the exploration and development of oil and gas fields. different and various laws and regulations deal with the investment in upstream operations. by reviewing these various laws and regulations, this research paper tries to discuss to what extent these laws and regulations have created legal confident for foreign investment up...

The existing volumetric approach was honored by considering the effects of oil and gas saturations on the evaluation of geothermal resources in oil and gas reservoirs. The main reason to do so was that oil and gas phases may not be simply substituted by water because the values of the specific heat of oil and gas are smaller than that of water. We selected an oil reservoir, Hexiwu, from Huabei ...

following the collapse of the soviet :union: and the discovery of gas and oil in central asia and caucasia, it faced complex interests in the international political economy. these problems were mainly rooted in developing plans of the countries for increasing their influence in the area and also in russia's connections with the iranian and turkish governments in the region. this paper inv...
