An experimental investigation of tertiary recovery of oil by alkaline steam flooding.
(1982)
Abstract Not Available.
Optimization techniques for a multi-dimensional drilling model.
(1980)
The method of Hooke and Jeeves using Fibonacci line search has been used to solve the non-linear, multi-variable, unconstrained, objective function. A comparison between the Hooke and Jeeves searching method and other ...
Fluid dynamics of well-bore bottom-hole cleaning /
(1983)
A comprehensive series of tests were run on the University of Oklahoma drilling research laboratory rig investigating the variables which influence the rate of cutting removal. No rock cutting or penetration was done in ...
Numerical simulation of heterogeneous fractured gas reservoir systems with turbulence and closure stress effects.
(1982)
Although techniques for designing a fracture treatment are available, the intended results of these techniques are often not attained. The evaluation of fracturing treatments on low permeability gas wells is required to ...
Techniques for evaluating and improving the performance of the iron oxides used as barite substitutes in oil well drilling fluids.
(1982)
Barite is the main weighting agent for drilling fluids because it has the required advantage of high specific gravity together with chemical inertness, and it is non-abrasive. Barite is frequently contaminated with alkaline ...
A general streamline modelling technique for homogeneous and heterogeneous porous media, with application to steamflood prediction.
(1982)
The (Laplace's) equation describing the distribution of potential was solved by the Boundary Element Method (BEM) also called the Boundary Integral Element Method (BIEM). This method utilizes the superposition of singular ...
A laboratory study with a light crude oil to determine the effect of high-pressure nitrogen injection on enhanced oil recovery.
(1982)
Laboratory research was conducted to study displacements of crude oil by high-pressure nitrogen injection. The objectives of this research were to study the effect of temperature and gas-oil ratio in solution on crude oil ...
Seismic models of geopressured natural gas resevoirs /
(1983)
In order to study the seismic signatures of abnormally pressured sections, three different reservoir traps were modeled using a 40-Hz, zero-phase, Ricker wavelet and a two millisecond sample rate. MODEL A, CASES 1-2 involved ...
