(2013-08-13)Since the 1980’s horizontal drilling has been a game-changing technology as it allowed the oil and gas industry to produce from reservoirs previously considered marginal or uneconomic. However, while it is considered a ...
-
(2009-06-02)This report adapts the application of a methodology known as Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to upstream Exploration & Production (E&P) project evaluations for the oil and gas industry. The method can be used to simplify ...
-
(2020-07-21)Artificial intelligence and machine learning have transformed many industries. However, the oil and gas industry is lagging in AI adaption. Currently, with the low oil prices and a considerable performance gap in the oil ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)The advent of high resolution logging devices now allows us to visualize geologic or natural events in greater detail than previously possible. These logs produce sonic or electrical images of the wellbore and have a ...

(2020-07-21)Acidizing in the oil and gas industry is a stimulation operation with a purpose of improving a well's productivity or injectivity. The main problems resulting from this process come from the fact that acid is corrosive and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)For prediction of future performance of condensate reservoirs, it is essential to know the dew-point pressures. At the present time the only reliable method of obtaining a dew-point pressure is laboratory measurement which ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)The work reported herein presents a new equation for the accurate prediction of the viscosity of several pure paraffin hydrocarbons and nitrogen. The equation applies reliably to both liquids and gases, and is cubic in ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)The physical properties of porous media are important to the petroleum engineer and geologist in making evaluations of subsurface formations. Determining these physical properties is a problem because many of the determinations ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)This laboratory investigation studied the efficiency of water and of nitrogen as CO(,2) slug propellants, determined the optimum CO(,2) slug size required for flooding, and the effect of horizontal permeability variation ...

Development of an instrument to evaluate the knowledge of elementary teachers about venereal disease (Texas A&M University. Libraries, )Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a valid and reliable instrument to assess the venereal disease knowledge of elementary school teachers. Procedure: Instructional objectives and an outline of factual ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1961)A quasi-synoptic study is made of 27 species of euphausiids from the oceanic waters of the Gulf of Mexico, Yucatan Strait, and Northwest Caribbean. One species, Thysanopoda acutifrons is reported for the first time. Samples ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)This work makes a comparison between the results of studies of stratified linear flow models and a simple mathematical model of the system which separates the flow into linear and rotational components. Fair agreement ...

-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)Laminar flow of fluid through reservoir rock can be described using Darcy's Law. If the flow is not laminar, the Forchheimer equation should be used to describe the system. The Forchheimer equation contains a term, β, which ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)The increased demand for crude oil in the world and in particular in the United States has caused the oil industry to develop techniques to increase the recovery of crude oil from subsurface formations. One technique ...

-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1961)Performance prediction calculations for petroleum reservoirs existing at high temperatures and pressures require the use of a compositional material balance. The compositional balance in turn requires a method of calculating ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Field testing demonstrates technical feasibility for gasification of lignite in-situ in East Texas hydrogeological conditions with minimal environmental changes. Problem areas in technology development are direct control ...
