Loss of soil fertility through loss organic matter, leaching nutrients, the nutrient-laden topsoil, changes in soil-pH, reduction cation exchange capacity, salinization, water logging and other forms degradation are major problems associated with agricultural productivity oil producing areas Nigeria. This analysis investigated some selected physico-chemical properties wetland soils affected by ...

The idea of injecting low salinity water into a petroleum reservoir is not novel and was often used in the 70’s prior to the injection of surfactant. Yet, recently it was shown that simply injecting sufficiently low salinity water improves oil recovery (LoSalTM). Many possible mechanisms concerning Low salinity waterflood have been proposed in the literature. This paper describes an experimenta...

A 27-year-old female presented with pain in the left hypochondrium for the past six months. An abdominal examination revealed mild splenomegaly. An abdominal ultrasonography showed two cystic lesions at the superior pole of the spleen. Contrast enhanced CT scan abdomen confirmed the USG findings, demonstrating splenomegaly with nonenhancing cystic lesions having internal septations and suspicio...

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) has been identified as a method of sequestering CO2 recovered from power plants. In CO2flood EOR, CO2 is injected into an oil reservoir to reduce oil viscosity, reduce interfacial tension, and cause oil swelling which improves oil recovery. Previous studies suggest that substantial amounts of CO2 from power plants could be sequestered in EOR projects, thus reducing t...

Because of colossal need by the general population, water must be put away and provided their necessities. Water request isn't steady for duration day. It changes hour to hour. To supply measure water, we store water. So, full fill open need, tank should developed. Limit storehouses overhead tanks are used liquid oil, oil-based merchandise relative liquids. The power assessment or is about comp...

In this study, anesthetic effects of five different concentrations of 2-phenoxyethanol (0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6 ml/L) and clove oil (0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25 and 1.50 ml/L) on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were studied at temperatures 7, 13 and 18ºC. For this purpose, 900 fish (39.08 ± 1.13 g and 15.48 ± 0.21 cm) were used in the experiment. Induction time of 2-phenoxyethanol and clove o...

Operasional penerbangan seaplane yang direncanakan di teluk pang – Banyuwangi memiliki dampak terhadap lingkungan perlu diperhatikan dan diteliti. Dampak kemungkinan dapat terjadi dari operasional tersebut adalah terkait kebisingan (Noise), kehidupan liar serta karena tumpahan oli (oil spillage) dampat aktivitas nelayan bekerja pang-pang. Metode penelitian Kualitatif menjadi pilihan dalam ini d...

Claude ZoBell’s recognition of the influence of microorganisms in the ecology of petroleum bearing environments was all encompassing. This translated into a unique contribution over the entire span of the oil industry. Many of his publications in the 1940s and 1950s discussed the key role of microorganisms in the diagenesis of hydrocarbon products. At a time when the industry was treating the s...

Recently, a renewed interest arises in the application of nanotechnology for the upstream petroleum industry. In particular, adding nanoparticles to fluids may drastically benefit enhanced oil recovery and improve well drilling, by changing the properties of the fluid, rocks wettability alteration, advanced drag reduction, strengthening the sand consolidation, reducing the inter-facial tension and...
