This study was aimed at optimizing the yield of transesterification of castor oil methyl ester (COME) from castor oil using response surface methodology (RSM). RSM was used to analyse and optimize the operating variables for the transesterification process…
Biodiesel is produced by a chemical reaction known as transesterification in which a triglyceride reacts with a primary alcohol to give an alkyl ester Biodiesel and a byproduct Glycerol. The reaction is said to proceed to completion only when the primary…

Transient flow of gas and gas-condensate in wells is a problem of industrial interest. Studies abound in the use of pressure transient models in the analysis of hydrate formation, growth and deposition in these wells but no study in the use of thermal…
Audu et al.
A method for producing Bio-diesel (fatty acid alkyl ester), from vegetable oils of non-edible seeds or used cooking oil with a homogeneous catalyst, preferably an alkali, dissolved in a primary alcohol to form a liquid-liquid mixture, is herewith presented…
Bata et al.
This study presents for the first-time field, petrographic and geochemical evidence of oil residue in exhumed fractured Precambrian basement rocks of the Northern Benue Trough. The studied oil residues which are brittle solids, are believed to have been…

Well-log and Repeat Formation Tester (RFT) data were used for the detection of overpressure in X Field in the Niger Delta, using sonic, gamma ray, density and calliper logs and RFT data. ROKDOC software was used for the analysis of these data. And the result…
Muhammed et al.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of process variables during dilute acid pretreatment and enzymatic saccharification of sorghum stalk for cellulosic ethanol production. The sorghum stalk was pre-treated at different reaction temperature (160…
Grema and Cao
Reservoir waterflooding is one of the cheapest means of producing hydrocarbon from underground formation to the surface. A properly formulated control and optimization strategy will not only solve the process inevitable problems but will also lead the process…
Jacob et al.
This paper presents an insight into over two decades of impactful educational intervention and other Oil and Gas related programmes of PTDF that have enhanced capacity building for the petroleum industry; the strong collaboration network between the PTDF and…

Akhabue and Anor
Kinetic studies of the esterification of free fatty acid (FFA) of rubber seed oil (RSO) for biodiesel production was investigated in this work. Esterification of RSO was carried out in batch experiments using a 1 litre round bottom flask placed on a constant…
Idris et al.
Numerical simulations of isothermal turbulent gas-solid flow in the riser of a pilot-scale circulating fluidised bed reactor has been carried out using FLUENT CFD software. An Eulerian-Eulerian multiphase flow model was used. The constitutive equations in…
Appah and Aimikhe
This study investigated the effect of retrofitting and systematic upgrade of the Hydro- cyclone De-oiler unit during produced water treatment. The internal orifice of the oil reject cones attached to the end of the oil reject Liners was mechanically and…

First break picking involves detecting the onset arrivals of refracted signals from a single signal source at the individual receiver in a receiver array. First-break picking can be done manually or automatically. This work outlines the procedures and…
Oladele et al.
The reservoirs in MGT field, deep offshore Niger Delta Basin Nigeria were studied with the aim of undertaking risk analysis of the identified prospects within the field through geological and volumetric assessments. Petrophysical analysis was carried out…
