a proper understanding of reservoir fluid phase behavior is the first crucial step in the development and production of an oil/gas field. this paper addresses the challenges and errors associated with the fluid sampling that may arise before, during and after the sampling operation. for this aim, dst and pvt data of exploration and production wells of a supergiant offshore gas condensate reserv...

With the rapid development of the oil industry and oil transportation, oil well blowout and marine oil spill accidents ca·used a lot of environmental damage in recent years, so there is a growing demand for oil spill disaster emergency response. It is difficult to monitor oil spill by conventional ways in real time due to the large range of oil spill, so remote sensing technology becomes the mo...

This paper presents the development of hall effect sensor for measuring the contamination of lubricant in industry. This technique is based on the principle of the magnetic field and Hall Effect. The magnetic field is made up of a permanent magnet which is measured by a Hall Effect sensor. The measured magnetic field can be estimated the level of contaminants in the oil by the ferrous particles...

Girth weld cracking is one of the main failure modes in oil and gas pipelines; girth weld cracking inspection has great economic and social significance for the intrinsic safety of pipelines. This paper introduces the typical girth weld defects of oil and gas pipelines and the common nondestructive testing methods, and systematically generalizes the progress in the studies on technical principl...

the two-spotted spider mite, tetranychus urticae koch, is a polyphagus pest which infests wide range of field, garden and greenhouse crops worldwide. pesticide applications against this pest have caused development of resistance, undesirable effects on non target organisms and environment and secondary pest outbreak. in recent years, herbal essential oils have received attention as natural plan...

This paper presents results of experimental investigations on natural esters dielectric and coolant fluids regarding the breakdown strength. The breakdown voltage (BDV) for small and medium oil gaps (from 2 mm up to 40 mm) under AC and lightning impulse (LI), uniform and non-uniform electrical field is measured. Experiments involve new, aged and with mineral oil contaminated natural esters. The...
