Law and Policy of the European Gas Market examines the regulatory and competitive choices of institutions and bodies operating within the EU gas market, with a view to achieving a higher level of market integration. Offering an in-depth analysis of the design, structure and func…
"Gas transit is network-dependent and it cannot be established without the existence of pipeline infrastructure in the territory of a transit state or the ability to access this infrastructure. Nevertheless, at an inter-regional level, there are no sufficient pipeline networks a…
"BOLIVIA IN THE AGE OF GAS demonstrates how the push to nationalize natural gas in Bolivia has fomented a complicated mix of nationalism, imperialism, and indigenous sovereignty, destabilizing singular understandings of each of these processes and revealing intricate webs of pow…

This thesis analyzes the social responsibility multinational oil and gas enterprises have with respect to the societal and environmental impact of their operations. Historically, these firms have exploited natural resources in regions around the world without adhering to any str…
A 2-D radial compositional simulator was used to investigate the effect of liquid drop out on the productivity of a rich gas condensate reservoir. A seven layer reservoir model was constructed based on well logs and core analysis data. A two phase relative permeability model was…
Experience has shown that the response of oil wells to sandstone matrix acidizing is different from the response of gas wells. For oil wells, the improvement in permeability resulting from the stimulation treatment peaks at a certain acid volume and then decreases as the acid vo…
Why is there a variance in the size of investment by American multinational corporations (MNCs) in the oil and gas sectors of Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan? All ten of the leading oil MNCs in the world petroleum industry have invested in the region. However, the size of investment b…
The oil and gas industry in Libya has suffered a number of health and safety accidents including environmental disasters due to the nature of the work involved and the hazardous materials it handles in all facets of exploration and production. Such issues have hitherto not recei…
This thesis discusses the preliminary development of a microfluidic system for low concentration vapour analysis incorporating a novel analyte preconcentration method to extend vapour detection limits. The topicality of this subject is evidenced by the urgent requirement to dete…
Neutron detection is a technique essential to homeland security, nuclear reactor instrumentation, neutron diffraction science, oil-well logging, particle physics and radiation safety. The current shortage of helium-3, the neutron absorber used in most gas-filled proportional cou…
The use of gas in alkaline-surfactant flooding (Alkaline-Surfactant-Gas (ASG) process) can be an alternative to the use of polymer, especially in carbonate reservoirs that generally have low permeability and contain vugs and fractures, for improving the displacement efficiency. …
