The Fuling shale gas field is facing a rapid production decline due to heavy liquid loading issues. Given the condition that most wells are located at remote areas in mountains, traditional lift methods require either fixed compressor or skid-mounted trucks do not seem feasible and occur high operation costs. A new type of valve can be opened closed low dome pressure indicates sensitivity press...

Within the past few decades, production of high-wax oils at offshore fields in Vietnam has been fraught with severe problems due to intense formation asphalt-resin-paraffin deposits (ARPD) downhole oil and gas equipment. The organic wax tubing string led a significant decrease gas-lift wells production, efficiency compressor units, transport capacity piping systems, along an increase equipment ...

Facelift surgery is unique in many ways and for 100 years has stood the test of time as the most dramatic, effective, predictable, and accepted cosmetic lower facial procedure. From public misconceptions to patient confusion, a lot of information must be exchanged for successful diagnosis, recovery, and result. It requires a qualified surgeon that operates in a safe environment and knows his or...

the ordinary tensor product of modules is defined using bilinear maps (bimorphisms), that are linear in eachcomponent. keeping this in mind, linton and banaschewski with nelson defined and studied the tensor product in an equational category and in a general (concrete) category k, respectively, using bimorphisms, that is, defined via the hom-functor on k. also, the so-called sesquilinear, or on...

In this article, which focuses on concepts rather than techniques, the author emphasizes that the best predictor of a good facelift outcome is an already attractive face that has good enough tissue quality to maintain a result past the swelling stage. The author notes that too often, surgeons gravitate toward a particular facial support technique and use it all the time, to often unsatisfactory...

Surgical eyebrow lift has been described by using many different open and endoscopic methods. Difficult techniques and only short time benefits oft lead to patients' complaints. We present a safe and simple temporal Z-incision technique for eyebrow lift in 37 patients. Besides simplicity and safety, our technique shows long lasting aesthetic results with hidden scars and a high rate of patient ...

Similar to random sea waves, forces on the offshore structures due to waves are random. These forces can be mainly divided into two components, namely, inline forces and transverse or lift forces. The random nature of lift forces is more complicated than that of inline forces and both should be combined for design purposes. In the present paper, two different approaches have been used to determ...
