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…
