Hydraulic fracturing (HF) is a method for enhancing oil and gas production where a large number of fractures are created to allow trapped oil or gas to move freely. According to Economides (2009), HF has been proven as a highly robust technology since its emergence in the 1950s. It improv...
Oil production plateaued through 2019. A local peak was expected for 2018 but delays in some projects pushed this backwards. Recent production is showing a marked decline possibly partly due to the pandemic impact though I would expect this to have a bigger effect in the coming years because ...
There are residues after chemical foaming, but the residues do not affect subsequent production, storage, and use. Mechanical foaming is commonly used in epoxy resin, phenolic resin, PP, and urea-formaldehyde resin. Physical foaming is suitable for a wide variety of plastics, s...
Spike first raced this in the Isle of Man in 1948. The Skirrow was a pioneering series-production single-seat racing car with strong motorcycle connections. Significantly, it was the reason the 8/80 JAP, as developed by Eric Fernihough for his world’s motorcycle record efforts, went into l...
the conventional method of fabricating these devices has discouraged their large-scale production, making their commercialization almost impossible. This is because traditional methods of producing droplet-based microfluidics are mostly time-consuming and labor-intensive and involve multiple processes. The emer...
However, 3D printing may not always be efficient for large-scale production, especially when high-resolution settings are needed for complex interlocking designs. In addition, material constraints, such as the limited availability of high-strength or heat-resistant materials in certain 3D printing techn...
The District Court reasoned that although “the Shell-Palfinger purchase and maintenance contract involved ‘services to facilitate the drilling or production of oil and gas on navigable waters,’ the record [did] not reflect that a vessel [would] play a substantial role in the completion of the...
Oil rigs dropped by nine to 593 while natural gasoriented rigs rose by one to 144, the July 6 analysis found. In contrast, in February 2023, the gas rig count totaled 194. Domestic gas fields were widely expected to continue losing rigs owing to low prices for that commodity. Gas prices...
Stereo-Directing Interaction between Ligands and Reactants Enantioselective synthesis characterized by a high enantiomeric excess of the target stereoisomer is of fundamental importance for pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries, where the production of racemic mixtures is not permitted because of ...
Overall, the system is efficient, cost-effective, and has the potential to improve crop production in the greenhouse significantly. D. Pamucar et al. [164] discussed the potential impact of Metaverse technologies on the transportation system, highlighted the preparations underway for the transition ...
