Compared to vertical or lowinclination wells, horizontal wells can deliver higher production rates, higher recovery factors, and more efficient use of steam in thermally enhanced recovery projects for heavy oil. However, the shallow, thin, and friable sand reservoirs in Columbia’s Girasol field present several challenges to the accurate placement of horizontal wells. Schlumberger was contracted...

Due to the lower tool as the research object to analyze the vibration of the drill string, causes the loss of the low order natural frequency of the drill string and the inherent vibration mode, give rise to the distortion and error of the result from the transient analysis of the drill string. For this purpose, the whole drill string of the deep wells is studied in the article, build the mecha...

In the paper the dynamic localization of charged particle (electron) in a quantum wire under the external non-uniform time-dependent electric field is considered. The electrons are trapped in a deep 'dynamic' quantum wells which are the result of specific features of the potential imposed on 2D electron gas: the scale of spatial nonuniformity is much smaller then the electron mean free path (L ...

Deep ultra-violet semiconductor lasers have numerous applications for optical storage and biochemistry. Many strategies based on nitride heterostructures and adapted substrates have been investigated to develop efficient active layers in this spectral range, starting with AlGaN quantum wells on AlN substrates and more recently sapphire and SiC substrates. Here we report an efficient and simple ...

In this paper we present a novel, quadruple well process developed in a modern 0.18 mm CMOS technology called INMAPS. On top of the standard process, we have added a deep P implant that can be used to form a deep P-well and provide screening of N-wells from the P-doped epitaxial layer. This prevents the collection of radiation-induced charge by unrelated N-wells, typically ones where PMOS trans...

BACKGROUND Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a common complication in trauma patients. Venous duplex surveillance is used widely for the diagnosis of DVT, however, there is controversy concerning its appropriate use. The Wells criterion is a clinically validated scoring system in an outpatient setting, but its use in trauma patients has not been studied. This study evaluated the application of the ...

Background Patients presenting with suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT) are common in the emergency department. Evidence based strategies for the diagnostic evaluation of these patients exists. The diagnosis is based on three criteria: a clinical pre-test probability score (Wells score), D-dimer testing, and ultrasound examination of the deep veins. The aim of our study was to evaluate the adh...

Millions of people in Bangladesh have probably switched their water consumption to wells that meet the local standard for As in drinking water of 50 microg/L as a result of blanket field testing throughout the country. It is therefore important to know if As concentrations in those wells could change over time. To address this issue, we report here precise groundwater As analyses for time-serie...

the purpose of this study, determining the optimal cultivation pattern by using interval mathematical programming approach among the farmers of esfarayen county before and after targeting the subsidies. for this purpose, farmers based on water resources classified in three group of using the river water, deep wells water and rainfed cultivation. the required data for this study has been obtaine...

Formation of hydrates is observed during drilling and construction of wells, more frequently in gas wells located offshore (deep sea water). Hydrates of natural gas can clog chokes and kill lines, and obstruct the opening or closure of blow out preventer (BOP), seal well override valve and immobilize well string. Because of that, this work was mainly focused in the selection and adaptation of a...
