Dieses umfassende Nachschlagewerk bündelt die Ergebnisse von fast zwei Jahrhunderten internationaler Forschung im Bereich volkstümlicher Erzähltradition. Die Autoren vergleichen die reichen Sammelbestände mündlich und schriftlich überlieferter Erzählungen aus den verschiedensten Ethnien und zeigen die sozialen, historischen, geistigen und religiösen Hintergründe auf.
A state-of-the-art review of scientific knowledge on the environmental risk of ocean discharge of produced water and advances in mitigation technologies. In offshore oil and gas operations, produced water (the water produced with oil or gas from a well) accounts for the largest waste stream (in terms of volume discharged). Its discharge is continuous during oil and gas production and typically increases in volume over the lifetime of an offshore production platform. Produced water discharge as waste into the ocean has become an environmental concern because of its potential contaminant content. Environmental risk assessments of ocean discharge of produced water have yielded different results...
This publication deals exclusively with naturally fractured reservoirs, and includes many subjects usually treated in separate volumes. It is written for students, reservoir geologists, log analysts and petroleum engineers.
A completely revised version of this standard text, with expanded coverage of operative procedures and extensive artwork. Many of the illustrations in this book have been redrawn to provide an easy-to-follow description of surgical procedures.
The development of unconventional gas resources, especially shale gas, in China and India, two of the world's fastest-growing economies, warrants close observation because of the potential economic and energy security benefits that successful development could bring to the two nations. An April 2011 assessment of international shale gas resources by the U.S. Energy Information Administration cited technically recoverable shale gas resources (not reserves) in China at 1,275 trillion cubic feet (tcf) and in India at 63 tcf, compared with 1,250 tcf for the United States and Canada combined. China and India have already begun exploring their substantial indigenous shale gas resources, but the question of how well they can replicate the U.S. experience, and over what time period, still looms large. The geological characteristics of shale deposits can vary widely, affecting the potential production profiles. Factors discussed in this report suggest that the pace of development of China's and India's shale gas resources could be significantly slower than the North American experience -- Provided by the publisher
