Gravity Acceleration

The results of repeated measurements of the acceleration of gravity by the Russian absolute ballistic field gravimeter GABL-M on points of oil and gas deposits in the permafrost over a five year period are presented. The changes of gravity acceleration by the absolute gravimeter and GRACE satellite were compared. The results of comparisons of differences gravity acceleration by ballistic gravimeter GABL-M and relative Canadian gravimeters CG5 were [i]shown. The errors in determination of parameters of the gravitational field ballistic gravimeter GABL-M and CG5 gravimeters group were presented. The method of measurement with the gravimeter GABL-M and the method of determining the vertical gradients relative CG5 gravity meters was described. The necessity of introducing corrections of hydrogeology is caused by influence of hydro geological factors on the gravitational field in the permafrost. They are comparable with the values of the field change in the result of gas pumping.

Dew Point Pressure

Abstract Bubble-point and dew-point pressures of oil and gas condensate reservoir fluids are used for planning the production profile of these reservoirs. Usually the best method for determination of these saturation pressures is by visual observation when a Constant Mass Expansion (CME) test is performed on a sample in a high pressure cell fitted with a glass window. In this test the cell pressure is reduced in steps and the pressure at which the first sign of gas bubbles is observed is recorded as bubble-point pressure for the oil samples and the first sign of liquid droplets is recorded as the dew-point pressure for the gas condensate samples. The experimental determination of saturation pressure especially for volatile oil and gas condensate require many small pressure reduction steps which make the observation method tedious, time consuming and expensive. In this study we have extended the Y-function which is often used to smooth out CME data for black oils below the bubble-point to determine saturation pressure of reservoir fluids. We started from the initial measured pressure and volume and by plotting log of the extended Y function which we call the YEXT function, with the corresponding pressure, two straight lines were obtained; one in the single phase region and the other in the two phase region. The point at which these two lines intersect is the saturation pressure. The differences between the saturation pressures determined by our proposed YEXT function method and the observation method was less than ± 4.0 % for the gas condensate, black oil and volatile oil samples studied. This extension of the Y function to determine dew-point and bubble-point pressures was not found elsewhere in the open literature. With this graphical method the determination of saturation pressures is less tedious and time consuming and expensive windowed cells are not required.

Violation of industrial safety rules during the operation of offshore facilities for the production, storage and transportation of the hydrocarbon raw materials leads in the most cases to pollution of the marine environment with oil and its components. The works on localization and elimination of such pollution are carried out with the help of vessels of the technical support fleet and booms. When developing oil spill response plans at such facilities, a calculated determination of the technical characteristics of vessels and booms is required that are sufficient to carry out the planned activities. The basic design principles for determining the towing capacity of the technical fleet vessels involved in the localization and elimination of oil and oil product spills by trawling methods are given in the article. The calculation is based on theoretical studies performed by the authors of the physical processes occurring during the movement of objects of a mobile trawling order in the sea area. The results obtained during the course of theoretical studies were confirmed by the experimental studies carried out by the authors personally using the real pieces of equipment in the actual development of tasks for training spill containment by trawling. As a result, the empirical dependencies were obtained and experimentally confirmed, which can be used to calculate technical characteristics of the ships as part of the mobile orders and anchor systems as part of stationary orders intended for the localization and elimination of oil pollution. These results can be used, among other things, for the calculated substantiation of the technical characteristics of the technical fleet vessels designed to ensure safety of the offshore facilities for production, storage, and transportation of the hydrocarbon raw materials.

Currently, under the conditions of increasing depletion of hydrocarbon reserves in Russia, it is necessary to consider the resource potential of poorly-researched oil and gas objects as a factor for ensuring the sustainable development of the oil and gas complex, in the context of the concept formation of rational subsoil utilization and a circular economy. The methodology of this study is based on a clear sequence of geological and economic studies of poorly-researched oil and gas objects, including four stages, such as analysis of the raw material base, assessment of the raw material potential, determination of technological development parameters, and economic evaluation. The methods of the probabilistic estimation of oil resources of the forecasted objects with regard to geological risk are outlined. Software packages “EVA—Risk Analysis” and “EVA—Economic Evaluation of Oil and Gas Field Development Projects” were used for estimation. The result of the study is the determination of the geological and economic efficiency of the development of nine hydrocarbon objects with the determination of the order of their further geological exploration, and introduction into industrial development on the example of the poorly-researched region of the Timan-Pechora oil and gas province located in the Arctic zone.

The removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from gas streams with varying overall pressure and H2S concentrations is a long-standing challenge faced by the oil and gas industries. The present work focuses on H2S capture using metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), in an effort to shed light on their potential as adsorbents in the field of gas storage and separation. MOFs hold great promise as they make possible the design of structures from organic and inorganic units, but also, they have provided an answer to a long-time challenging issue, i.e., how to design extended structures of materials. Moreover, the functionalization of the MOF’s surface can result in increased H2S uptake. For example, the insertion of 1% of a fluorinated linker in MIL-101(Cr)-4F(1%) allows for enhanced H2S capture. Although noticeable efforts have been made in studying the adsorption capacity of H2S using MOFs, there is a clear need for gaining a deeper understanding in terms of their thermal conductivities and specific heats in order to design more stable adsorption beds, experiencing high exothermicity. Simply put, the exothermic nature of adsorption means that sharp rises in temperature can negatively affect the bed stability in the absence of sufficient heat transfer. The work presented herein provides a detailed discussion by thoroughly combining the existing literature on new developments in MOFs for H2S removal, and tries to provide insight into new areas for further research.

Oil And Gas Sector

The oil and gas sector of the economy in many states remains the main source of foreign exchange and tax revenues to the budget. Moreover, its share, for example, in Russia, accounts for about 12 % of all industrial production. However, this sector, as the practice of world oil prices shows, is experiencing not only a rise, but also a decline. Consequently, the problem of forming a balanced portfolio of oil and gas assets is an object of close attention on the part of national oil and gas companies. The issues of choosing the optimal combination of oil and gas assets in the portfolio are no less urgent, especially among the tasks that all oil and gas companies face, both in Russia and abroad. An investment portfolio or a portfolio of oil and gas assets, which includes new projects for the commissioning of fields, as well as measures to enhance oil recovery, and exploration are objects of real investment. The high volatility of the oil and gas industry is influenced by various factors, including: macroeconomic, innovation risks and a number of others. These circumstances stimulate the sector to increase the resilience of its project portfolios in order to respond flexibly to changes. In an increasingly challenging and uncertain environment, oil and gas companies around the world face constant pressures as difficult strategic decisions and building long-term plans lead to a sustainable portfolio. In order to achieve their goals and maximize profitability, companies should apply certain algorithms in their practice. The article substantiates the role and importance of project portfolio management in achieving the goals of the state and companies in the oil and gas sector. The main goal of the article is to build an algorithm that is aimed both at determining the stability of the portfolio and the ability to flexibly respond to changes in the environment. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the determination of an algorithm for assessing the sustainability of a portfolio of projects of oil and gas companies. Application of this algorithm will allow oil and gas companies to take into account the influence of external factors. The research methodology is based on such methods as analysis of internal regulations and reporting of companies for project portfolio management, risk analysis, project ranking; grouping and classification method.
