AltaRock Energy is working with Washington State geologists to explore the region’s hydrothermal resources using Play Fairway Analysis, a modified petroleum industry exploration methodology. This project uses geomechnical modeling along with temperature and geochemical data to find the most suitable sites for geothermal development. ...
Analyzing various parameters in petroleum products is one of the most frequent requests in contract or quality control laboratories. ...

Analytical chemistry is a complex discipline that focuses on extracting information about the composition and structure of samples using advanced techniques. Generally speaking, these samples must be separated into their component parts for identification and quantification. Thus, separative techniques like gas chromatography (GC) are central to the field. Both qualitative and quantitative ...
Nutech 8900DS preconcentrator has been helping our Brazilian customer for VOCs analysis in petroleum ...
Total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) analysis showed that there was a 75% degradation of the motor oil and 67% degradation of the hydraulic fluid after 9 weeks. ...
The composition of PAHs indicated that 2- and 3-ring PAHs have the highest proportion in all PAHs, while the 5- and 6-ring PAHs were the least in proportion. By diagnostic ratio analysis, combustion and petroleum were a mixture input that contributed to the water PAH in urban areas of Nanjing. ...
The process was expedited by features such as 3-D CAD import tools and the program’s intuitive 3-D interface. Check out our video on Petroleum Plant Siting Analysis to learn more about BREEZE ExDAM. Example 2: External VCE Event Near Urban Multi-Story Building Another common use of the ExDAM model is to assess the potential for damage or injury in a ...
Many labs are facing helium supply difficulties and rapid price increases as a result of the helium shortage. Lab managers are therefore looking for alternative carrier gases and for many GC applications, hydrogen provides an excellent alternative to helium. Using a hydrogen generator can supply gas to a whole lab and at the same time remove the danger of storing hydrogen in the lab. Laboratories ...
Fe–S/γ–Al2O3 was prepared by thermally decomposing Fe(CO)5 onto γ–Al2O3 and subsequent sulphurisation with sublimed sulphur in a magnetically stirred autoclave and used as the catalyst for catalytic hydroconversion (CHC) of Lingwu bituminous coal (LBC). Non–catalytic hydroconversion (NCHC) and CHC of LBC were conducted in cyclohexane under 5 MPa of initial hydrogen pressure at 300°C. The reaction ...
In this special edition you'll find valuable information on the tools you need for analysis of petroleum samples and petrochemical workplace conditions: Including: Analytical Standards and Proficiency Testing Standards Certified Reference Materials (CRM) Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) Active and Passive Sampling Devices ...
Researchers and the International Press report that the endless oil spills in Nigeria have created ecological disaster.Keywords: accounting, oil companies, Nigeria economy, critical analysis, British petroleum oil spill, Africa, ...
Developments of effective produced water (PW) management strategies pose a challenge to the offshore petroleum industry. In this study three PW minimisation systems: down hole oil–water separation (A1), chemical water shut off (A2) and mechanical water shut–off (A3) were evaluated based on fourteen pre–selected criteria from environment, cost and technical point ...
Client: Dundee City Council Objective: Bioremediation of hydrocarbon contaminated soils to achieve compliance with the Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) for Mineral Oil (C10 – C40); with the intention of re-using the soils to Riverside Recycling Centre to be used as a capping layer. Challenge: Approximately 2,800 m3 of hydrocarbon impacted soil was stockpiled at the rear of Marchbanks ...
This paper presents a methodology to assess projects for the generation of clean, renewable energy. Such methodology is applied here to estimate the consumption of fossil fuels (referred to as 'oil'), required for the construction, operation and maintenance of a wind farm consisting of 97 turbines of 3 MW each. Results show that such consumption represents a conservative 8–9% of the total energy ...
A spreadsheet model (PETROTOX) is described that predicts the aquatic toxicity of complex petroleum substances from petroleum substance composition. Substance composition is characterized by specifying mass fractions in constituent hydrocarbon blocks (HBs), based on available analytical information. The HBs are defined by their mass fractions within a defined carbon number range or boiling ...
On-site analysis of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) concentration levels in soil are easily handled using the InfraCal TOG/TPH Analyzers manufactured by Wilks Enterprise, Inc. ...

The fractal behaviour for petroleum pricing is investigated in several international systems. Based on the time series of Brent & WTI crude oil and Rotterdam & Singapore Leaded gasoline prices (daily spot), this paper analyses the fractal features in the systems under study by using Rescaled Range analysis (R/S analysis). ...
This research studies environment dimensions of Canadian petroleum refinery companies. It proposes an analysis of the supply chain and focuses on specific actions related to the following: reduction of contaminants; analysis of the operations process; development of parameters and characteristics that can evolve into a benchmarking system for ...
Production sharing contracts are one of the most popular forms of contractual system used in petroleum agreements around the world, but the manner in which the fiscal terms and contract parameters impact system measures is complicated and not well understood. ...
