The need for industrialization in developing countries has been a way of improving the quality of life of the populace by providing the basic amenities to support their life. One of the factors that favor industrialization is the steady and adequate supply of…
Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) describes informal mining activities using low technology or minimal machinery. The use of low-tech and minimal machinery characterises the ASM industry in Nigeria. ASM sector in Nigeria, however, remains a potential…
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a group of priority pollutants that are persistent, ubiquitous, and toxic, which are released to the environment through natural and anthropogenic sources. The effectiveness of bentonite clay modified with hexadecyl…
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) is classified as persistent hazardous organic priority pollutants produced by anthropogenic as well as natural activities. The present study investigates the kinetics, isotherm, and thermodynamic behavior of five PAHs…
On the basis of the effort by the Delft University of Technology to produce hot water for heating purposes (Delft Geothermal Project, DAP), the Buntsandstein Reservoirs of the Triassic Detfurth and Volpriehausen Formations in the West Netherlands Basin have…
This study evaluates and analyses the performance of Ibom Power Plant from 2014 to 2016 based on performance indices such as capacity factor, load factor, plant capacity, utilization factor, overall efficiency, and thermal efficiency. The operating margin…
Seismic data, Well log data and 3D object generated training image were made available for the study. Visual inspection of the seismic data revealed channel fills in Hatch field Offshore Niger Delta Basin. Two continuous reservoirs named reservoir-D and…
Oil shale is an unconventional source of fuel distributed across the world with only few active explorations due to the competitive advantage price of crude oil and natural gas. However, oil shale holds important application in the context of a decline in the…
Knowledge of reservoir fluid properties is very important in reservoir engineering calculations such as reserves estimates, material balance equation, and numerical reservoir stimulation etc. Laboratory measurements are the most dependable methods for…
Principles of sequence stratigraphy have been applied in the study of the Emi Field, Offshore Depobelt, Eastern Niger Delta. Using 3D seismic data, wireline logs of six wells, check shots, and biostratigraphic data sets, two sequence boundaries and three…
