AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic is currently ravaging the globe and the African continent is not left out. While the direct effects of the pandemic in regard to morbidity and mortality appear to be more significant in the developed world, the indirect harmful effects on already insufficient healthcare infrastructure on the African continent would in the long term be more detrimental to the populace. Women and children form a significant vulnerable population in underserved areas such as the sub-Saharan region, and expectedly will experience the disadvantages of limited healthcare coverage which is a major fall out of the pandemic. Paediatric cardiac services that are already sparse in various sub-Saharan countries are not left out of this downsizing. Restrictions on international travel for patients out of the continent to seek medical care and for international experts into the continent for regular mission programmes leave few options for children with cardiac defects to get the much-needed care.There is a need for a region-adapted guideline to scale-up services to cater for more children with congenital heart disease (CHD) while providing a safe environment for healthcare workers, patients, and their caregivers. This article outlines measures adapted to maintain paediatric cardiac care in a sub-Saharan tertiary centre in Nigeria during the COVID-19 pandemic and will serve as a guide for other institutions in the region who will inadvertently need to provide these services as the demand increases.

This study has been done to map the distribution of gas saturated sandstone reservoir by using stochastic seismic inversion in the “X” field, Bonaparte basin. Bayesian stochastic inversion seismic method is an inversion method that utilizes the principle of geostatistics so that later it will get a better subsurface picture with high resolution. The stages in conducting this stochastic inversion technique are as follows, (i) sensitivity analysis, (ii) well to seismic tie, (iii) picking horizon, (iv) picking fault, (v) fault modeling, (vi) pillar gridding, ( vii) making time structure maps, (viii) scale up well logs, (ix) trend modeling, (x) variogram analysis, (xi) stochastic seismic inversion (SSI). In the process of well to seismic tie, statistical wavelets are used because they can produce good correlation values. Then, the stochastic seismic inversion results show that the reservoir in the study area is a reservoir with tight sandstone lithology which has a low porosity value and a value of High acoustic impedance ranging from 30,000 to 40,000 ft /s*g/cc.

CO2 storage in saline aquifers offers a realistic means of achieving globally significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions at the scale of billions of tonnes per year. We review insights into the processes involved using well-documented industrial-scale projects, supported by a range of laboratory analyses, field studies, and flow simulations. The main topics we address are ( a) the significant physicochemical processes, ( b) the factors limiting CO2 storage capacity, and ( c) the requirements for global scale-up. Although CO2 capture and storage (CCS) technology can be considered mature and proven, it requires significant and rapid scale-up to meet the objectives of the Paris Climate Agreement. The projected growth in the number of CO2 injection wells required is significantly lower than the historic petroleum industry drill rates, indicating that decarbonization via CCS is a highly credible and affordable ambition for modern human society. Several technology developments are needed to reduce deployment costs and to stimulate widespread adoption of this technology, and these should focus on demonstration of long-term retention and safety of CO2 storage and development of smart ways of handling injection wells and pressure, cost-effective monitoring solutions, and deployment of CCS hubs with associated infrastructure. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, Volume 12 is June 2021.
