Abstract I n this paper, the behavior of the real oil price and OPEC and non-OPEC oil production during 1973-2013 are modelled. Interactions among OPEC, non-OPEC oil production, global oil consumption, and the real price of crude oil are estimated using a Structural VAR model (SVAR). After providing evidence for the structural breaks in oil price in 1996, the results indicate that, ac...

An integrated Artificial Neural NetworkParticle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is presented for analyzing global electricity consumption. To aim this purpose, following steps are done: STEP 1: in the first step, PSO is applied in order to determine world’s oil, natural gas, coal and primary energy demand equations based on socio-economic indicators. World’s population, Gross domestic product (GDP), o...

In the last twenty years the consumption of olive oil has gone from being located in the Mediterranean Area to expanding around the world and considering today the olive oil as a product of global consumption . Doubtless, one of the pillars that has allowed the rapid expansion of its consumption is its rich composition in polyphenols, sterols and antioxidants that confer numerous benefits for h...

Reduction of energy consumption and CO2 emissions are recognized as important issues in today’s world. In addition, oil and gas companies are looking for ways to increase their capacity and maximize system uptime in order to meet the global energy demand. To realize these goals, oil and gas facilities are looking for 261 STUDY OF LARGE VSI DRIVE SYSTEM FOR OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY

BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases represent an increasing share of the global disease burden. There is concern that increased consumption of palm oil could exacerbate mortality from ischemic heart disease (IHD) and stroke, particularly in developing countries where it represents a major nutritional source of saturated fat. METHODS The study analyzed country-level data from 1980-1997 derived ...

Global climate change due to CO2 emissions is an issue of international concern that primarily attributed to fossil fuels. In this study, Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used for analyzing world CO2 emission based on the global energy consumption. Linear and non-linear forms of equations were developed to forecast CO2 emission using Genetic Algorithm (GA) based on the global oil, natural gas, coal, a...

With the rapid increase in oil and gas consumption in the world’s energy consumption structure, the pace of global oil–gas pipeline construction has accelerated. Pipeline accidents that cause huge economic losses occur frequently, so inspection and maintenance of oil and gas pipelines have become critical issues. This paper presents a helical-contact deformation measuring method based on a mult...
