This work conducts a technical analysis of the current production and consumption of vegetable oils and some of the oily byproducts to determine the potential feedstock for the synthesis of non-food-competitive surfactants and surfactant-based systems. It defines the concentrated phosphatides (phosphatidic sludge) as no-/low- value streams, appropriately suited for chemical valorisation. The study further creates biobased surfactants by amidation of phosphatidic sludge derived from refinery of sunflower and rapeseed oils with monoethanolamine, N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine, or N,N’-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine, under the action of calcium hydroxide as catalyst in excellent yields (95–98 %). Besides waste remediation, the use of phosphatides enabled to create the mixed surfactant compositions, comprising fatty acid alkanolamides and calcium glycerolphosphatides with improved solubility in organic non-polar solvents. With new surfactants, there have been created reversed emulsion systems, which can be potentially applied to the development and exploitation of gas and oil deposits are recommended for drilling wells, the disclosure of productive strata; perforation of wells and development of productive layers; blockage of gas, gas condensate and oil wells; elimination of manifestations and flow of gas in wells; limitation and elimination of waterways; cleaning of the hollow zone of wells and intensification of the inflow of hydrocarbon raw materials, which have been tested in laboratory and experimental industrial conditions, and a significant part of them have been introduced or tested on gas condensate fields. Creation of coordinated, effective and economical actions that should be formed in the state energy policy of Ukraine would facilitate the development of oil and gas companies, namely: increase of own oil and gas production; maximizing the potential of energy saving; diversification of external sources of supply; approximation of the parameters of the oil and gas industry to the norms and standards of the European Union.

Associated with the growth of Australia’s oil and gas industry over the past 40 years, our oceans currently host oil and gas production and transportation infrastructure that will cost ~AU$30 billion to decommission. National Energy Resources Australia (NERA) is one of six industry growth centres (IGC) funded by the Australian Government. NERA is investigating opportunities for transforming the way that Australia manages its upcoming decommissioning activities. In 2019, NERA undertook a series of stakeholder consultations to refresh our understanding of Australia’s decommissioning outlook. Feedback was received through more than 20 interviews and follow-up surveys with the service sector, operators, research organisations, regulators and consultants. This paper highlights the outcomes of this review and NERA’s view on opportunities to position Australia favourably to manage decommissioning in a way that maximises benefits.

This paper gives an overview of erosion mechanisms in elbows in oil and gas production systems. The nature of the erosion process itself makes it very difficult to develop some definitive methods or models to prevent or predict the erosion in elbows in all conditions. This paper provides a review of the subject which will help petroleum engineers to handle the erosion problems in oil and gas industry. This review is given of different erosion mechanisms connected with sand erosion and the factors that influence them, and then the review goes on to look at particulate erosion in elbows in more details. Conclusions are then drawn based on the above analyses.

Crude Oil Production

Oil and gas production continues to be an important sector of Utah’s economy. Following a 25% loss in production between 2014 and 2015, Utah’s production continues to slowly rebound. Crude oil production in 2019 appears to be slightly ahead of 2018 production. Monthly production averages slightly over three million barrels, placing Utah among the top ten states in crude oil production. Along with the continuing increase in production, the state’s legal framework governing oil and gas continues to develop. This Article examines recent changes in Utah statutes and regulations along with new case law developments involving the oil and gas industry. In particular, this Article discusses a recent federal bankruptcy decision involving midstream agreements, the revision to a Utah statute that now requires mandatory reporting of unclaimed mineral interests, and recent revisions to Utah’s oil and gas regulations.

Semantic Categories

The lexical-semantic features of the English terms of oil and gas sphere are considered. Attention is drawn to the phraseological and metaphorical features that are characteristic of the terms of the oil and gas industry. It has been revealed that English oil and gas terminology is built on a heterogeneous model, that is, the result of the interaction of several areas of human knowledge. It includes geological, geophysical, geochemical terms, as well as terms related to drilling, washing, fastening and cementing of oil and gas wells, development of oil and gas fields, underground hydraulics, oil and gas production, processing methods, pipeline terminology, offshore drilling terminology, economic terminology. It is has been found out that the semantic categories of English oil and gas terminology are evidence that the terminology under study reflects a particular sphere of human activity that can be structured in some way by the means of language. In this process, the human factor is important. On the one hand, it is inherent in each of the categories, and serves as a basis for subjectivity in identifying the peculiarities of the content.The semantic categories of English oil and gas terminology are analyzed. These include: Human, Process, Equipment, Substance, Method, and Characteristics. The study showed that among the English oil and gas terms formed by metaphorization, we can distinguish terms conventionally grouped under the following lexical-semantic groups: “Parts of the human body”, “World of animals and birds”, “Clothes”, “Society”, “Cooking”, “Construction”, “Nature”, “Traveling”, “Weapon”, “Tool”, “Geometric figure”, “Hunting”, “Fishing”, “Medicine”, “Furniture” та “Quality”.

At present, repair and diagnostic complexes are being developed for repair of oil and gas production facilities, including control areas for working capacity, diagnosing components used in maintenance stations, as well as areas equipped with the necessary technological equipment, measuring instruments, tools and equipment for carrying out current repair of replacement elements. For maintenance of repair, repair-diagnostic complexes are equipped with means of power supply, sets of spare property and accessories and operational documentation. Repair-diagnostic complexes can be represented using a three-phase multi-channel queuing system. The study of such a system with the distribution functions of the service time of applications different from the exponential makes it difficult to use analytical models. The developed simulation model of the repair and diagnostic complex allows to evaluate the characteristics of its functioning, the most important of which is the average service time of the application in the system, as well as to determine the required number of channels on each site. The developed model can be aggregated into a general model of research into the operation of complex technical systems for supplying oilfield facilities.

Oil and gas production is characterised by a truly international industry, and yet a unique local environment. Solutions developed elsewhere cannot always be imported directly for Australian use. For this reason alone, a strong local technology base is of value to the Australian oil and gas industry. Other benefits include the ability to provide high quality education and training for people entering, and already in, the industry.A case study is described where the Western Australian technology base is facilitating solutions to a specific challenge faced on the North West Shelf (NWS); namely, that the criteria for reliable development and operation of its offshore infrastructure for oil and gas production are more severe than other petroleum provinces, requiring new analytical tools to be developed.

The oil and gas production sector in Western Australia has grown dramatically in recent years and now represents the largest resource sector in the State economy. The industry has a very promising future but it faces a number of challenges if it is to achieve its full potential. Its production location in remote parts of the State confers both advantages and disadvantages. Chief among the disadvantages is the challenge of convincing the community and government of the benefits from the industry when many of those benefits are not apparent to the majority of the population. The emphasis in this paper is on economic impacts, social benefits and community attitudes.WA has produced about 820 million barrels of oil and 2000 million barrels of natural gas when gas is calculated in energy equivalent terms. Petroleum energy production has increased dramatically over the last 15 years and the State is now a substantial energy exporter. Petroleum sources provide the energy for over 85% of the final energy used in the State. Total industry investment over the last 18 years has been nearly $21,000 million for an average of $3.2 million each day. Direct employment by petroleum companies is around 2,500 people with flow-on employment in the services sector estimated at over 17,000 people. Petroleum companies have been major contributors to government revenue and to the development of remote regions in WA.

Before And After

Indonesia’s oil and gas industry is the huge contributor to government export revenues and foreign exchange and contributes a substantial amount to state revenue. However, the total of oil production declined around 4,41% per year since 2007, and the sharpest decline was in 2013. This situation gives impact to the performance of oil and gas industry, especially government revenues. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to measure the financial performance of Oil and Gas Industry and to examine the significance differences between the financial performance before and after the decline in oil and gas production. The data were collected from financial report and the period was divided into two periods, before the decline in production (2011 – 2012) and after the decline in production (2014 – 2015). Paired sample t-test and financial ratio analysis (FRA) were used to analyzed the data. The finding shows that the largest oil and gas company in Indonesia is still in good financial condition, although it gained loss. In addition, current ratio and return on equity had significance difference during the period of before and after a decline in oil and gas production. The authors believe that the findings will be helpful for managers who continuously attempt to explore opportunities to provide a higher return.
