Reservoir fracturing or fissuring is a natural phenomenon and a major factor in many Oil engineering studies. The factors that cause the Reservoir to fracture were analyzed in Tabnak Anticline, in Fars province of Iran using the borehole images information (EMI). A nonlinear simulation and assessment model of reservoir fracturing was established using the artificial neural network (ANN) technology to simulate the structure and function of the neural network (NN) of the human brain with engineering technology. The ...

Currently, continuous gas lift has a significant contribution for the purpose of petroleum production from those wells that have low production rates or those that have ceased their production. Therefore, production engineers are constantly finding the ways for optimizing this type of system. Superior designs are achieved when important parameters are optimized prior to system implementation. Optimization of gas injection into the annulus and also the tubing size are of the most important parameters. The functiona...

Bubble-point pressure, gas solubility and viscosity of oils are of the most important parameters in use for petroleum and chemical engineers. In this study a simple-to-use; straight-forward mathematical model is correlated on a set of 94 crude oil data. The correlation is achieved based on an exponential regression. The results are compared with variety of conventional empirical correlations and have also been evaluated by comparison with 12 laboratory data other than those used for the regression. It has been con...

In this study, the water content of the base sediments and rocks under an abandoned small waste water dam in Selcuk University campus in Konya was monitored. This small dam was planned to construct for the beneficiation of the waste water of Selcuk University main campus. After usage of a few mouths, the dam was demolished by campus authorities due to its water leakage through its base sediments. The study presented here contains the work done to determine water localization in the base rocks in front of the dam. ...
