ABSTRACT Monitoring and maintenance is a continuous process in the various phases of a well’s life. One of the essential part of monitoring is well testing. Just as a regular medical checkup is advised for humans so is well testing advised for a target formation. Well testing provides a means of obtaining information about the well and the...

Abstract Industrial accidents are on the rise. This fact is even more prevalent in developing countries where the countries lack the safety standards required to ensure workplace safety in the pursuit of economic development. As land in prime locations becomes increasingly scarce, there is an argument for building skyscrapers. But this just... Continue Reading

Abstract Hydraulic fracturing is an effective well stimulation technique which is introduced in the 1950s and widely used in the oil and gas industry. Most of the works about hydraulic fracture assumed that the fracture is symmetric and either vertical or horizontal. But, several field and laboratory observations show very complex fractures,...

ABSTRACT  This study on the integrated solar and hydraulic jump enhanced waste stabilization pond (ISHJEWSP) is aimed at determining the effect of variations in solar radiation, hydraulic jump, hydro-kinematic factors and pond geometry, on the treatment efficiency of wastewater in the ISHJEWSP. An equation to account for these effects was... Continue Reading

Abstract Hydraulic fracturing has been an effective technique to stimulate damaged wells or wells producing from low-permeability formation. It has been established that the orientation of a hydraulic fracture is perpendicular to the direction of the least principal stress in the formation. Thus, most pressure transient analysis techniques are... Continue Reading
