APPLICATION OF MODERN 3D SEISMIC DATA ACQUIRED FOR DEEPER RESOURCE PLAYS TO SHALLOWER MATURE FIELDS – A RED FORK CASE STUDY
(2017-05)Utilizing a modern 3D survey acquired for a deeper resource play one can also examine potential drilling hazards and behind pipe pay in shallower formations. This study concentrates on the Red Fork sands that have been ... -
THE APPLICATION OF MULTIVARIATE DISTANCE MATRIX REGRESSION IN TRANSPORTATION FOR TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
(2017-12)A critical function of intelligent transportation systems is studying and analyzing the effects of road condition variables (e.g. construction, severe weather, and the like) on traffic to aid in improving road designs, ... -
Application of seismic attributes and machine learning clustering techniques to the characterization of faults in a post-salt reservoir, Jubarte Field (Campos Basin)
(2021-05-14)Seismic reflection datasets represent an important source of information capable of revealing structural features in the subsurface, such as fault zones. Faults can be interpreted using the original amplitude volumes, ... -
Application of seismic attributes and unsupervised machine learning methods for identification of hidden faults in basement and carbonate rocks
(2023-12-15)Seismic fault interpretation is a critical task for any type of energy industry and correct fault mapping can be crucial for the success of a project. Common geometric seismic attributes such as coherence and curvature are ... -
Application of Spectral Index-Based Logistic Regression to Detect Inland Water in the Caucasus
(2021-05-14)The Caucasus is a diverse region with many climate zones that range from subtropical lowlands to mountainous alpine areas. The Caucasus region also contains irrigated agricultural lands, heavily vegetated wetlands, ... -
Application of Tiab's Direct Synthesis technique to transient pressure response of non-Newtonian fluids in vertical wells
(2000)Non-Newtonian fluids are very common during drilling, fracture operations and enhanced oil recovery processes. When a reservoir contains a non-Newtonian fluid such as those injected during polymer flood or the production ... -
THE APPLICATION OF USING COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS (CFD) TO MODERN BUILDING DESIGN
(2017-05-12)In the last few years, constructing buildings that do not cause any bad destructive effects on the environment (green buildings) has become one of the priorities around the world, especially in the United States (USGBC ... -
APPLICATIONS OF MACHINE LEARNING METHODS IN THE GENERATION OF SUBSURFACE MEASUREMENTS
(2018-05-11)Machine learning methods have been used in the Oil and Gas industry for about thirty years. Applications range from interpretations of geophysical, well and seismic responses, identification of minerals, analysis of rock ... -
An Applied Evaluation of Ecosystem Services Decision-Support Tools
(2024-05-10)Nature's value as an asset is unmistakable, evident through the tangible benefits it provides, such as agricultural yields and tourist attractions. These services, known as ecosystem services (ES), are easy to appreciate ... -
Applied High-Order Singular Value Decomposition for Weight Compression and Expansion in Deep Neural Networks
(2019-08)Complex deep learning objectives such as object detection and saliency, semantic segmentation, sequence-to-sequence translation, and others have given rise to training processes requiring increasing amounts of time and ... -
Applying Dynamic Mode Decomposition to Interconnected Systems for Forecasting and System Identification
(2023-08-04)Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) describes a family of dynamical systems analysis approaches that approximate complex, likely non-linear behaviors with a low-rank linear operator. DMD has traditionally been used in a ... -
Applying the Simplified Local Density Model to Study the Effects fo Confinement on Density in Shale Formation
(2016)The pores in shale gas reservoirs are represented on a nanometer scale. In addition to having smaller pore sizes than conventional reservoirs, shale gas reservoirs exhibit different mechanisms of gas storage, i.e. gas ... -
Applying the Universal Design for Learning in Higher Education; A Guide for Increased Learning in the Classroom
(2020)Education is essential for societal progress. Therefore, increasing performance in learning has become a popular research topic. However, determining this has proven difficult as all humans learn differently. The Universal ... -
Approaches to Spatializing Qualitative Data
(2022-05)This study investigates how researchers use technology to create geographic visualizations that provide spatial context for displaying and accessing qualitative data such as texts, photographs, videos, and/or audio recordings. ... -
Archaeoastronomy: Comparing Astronomic Traditions of Torres Strait Islanders with Quantitative Evidence
(2024-05-10)Located north of Cape York in Australia lies the Torres Strait and the indigenous people who call it home. Torres Strait Islanders have a rich culture including song, dance, folk tales, and other traditions. Western ... -
An Archaeological and Historical Examination of the Sulphur Fork Factory, 1817-1822
(2023-05-12)The United States Indian Factory System, an early experiment in public enterprise, was a late addition to the North American Fur Trade phenomenon. Created by an act of Congress in 1795, the factory system established a ... -
