Carbonate matrix stimulation technology has progressed tremendously in the last decade through creative laboratory research and novel fluid advancements. Still, existing methods for optimizing the stimulation of wells in vast carbonate reservoirs are inadequate. Consequently, oil and gas wells are stimulated routinely to expand production and maximize recovery. Matrix acidizing is extensively used because of its low cost and ability to restore the original productivity of damaged wells and provide additional production capacity. The Ahdeb oil field lacks studies in matrix acidizing; therefore, this work provided new information on limestone acidizing in the Mishrif reservoir. Moreover, several reports have been issued on the difficulties encountered during the stimulation operation of the Ahdeb oil field, particularly for the development of the Mishrif reservoir. Since the new core flooding system is built to operate safely and straightforwardly. This study introduced the results of Matrix acidizing experiments, covering the most recent developments in linear core flooding. High-permeability flow pathways are created, and a longer and wider wormhole was generated at a high acid injection rate (6.67 cc/min). The acid efficiency curve yielded the lowest pore volume injected at the breakthrough of the PV_(bt-opt) is 2.73 and the v_(i-opt)=0.6 cm/min; thus, the optimum injection rate that results in an optimal possible wormhole and the least quantity of acid being used for this reservoir is 2.16 cc/min. This research evaluated the impact of matrix acidizing treatment on acoustic characteristics, which studies show are lacking or have never been investigated previously. Furthermore, in the assessment of geomechanical rock properties and elastic and petrophysical parameters before and after acid injection, one of the new concepts discovered during the lab experiment observation of the acoustic waveform before and after acid treatment for the tested rock sample is that the initial arrival time before acid treatment is 21.6 microseconds, with a delay of 31.2 microseconds attributed to the wormhole channel and mineral disintegration. CT-Scan applications in matrix acidizing were investigated in this research; additionally, a 3D view of plug samples was constructed to represent the wormhole extension via CT-processing software. A license of Stimpro Stimulation Software has been used to validate the experimental work to the field scale, making it the most comprehensive instrument for planning and monitoring matrix acid treatment and utilizing actual data to provide a far better knowledge of the well's reaction, with methods that represent the reality of what is happening in the reservoir before, during, and after matrix acid treatments, through the post-treatment skin factor which is the most often utilized statistic for analyzing stimulation treatments and relies on the geometry of the wormholed zone. The acid treatment evaluated for the well AD-12, primarily for the zone Mi4; matrix acid treatments can have their production behavior predicted or matched using the reservoir simulation and production analysis option, employing the numerical simulation license software Petrel (Schlumberger) and Rubis (KAPPA) to determine the efficacy of previous treatments and the economics associated with future treatments. The estimated oil gain volume and percentage for the Mi4 unit in Ad-12 using particularly skin value -3.97 computed from Stimpro software for real stimulation acid job, it is yield enhancement in production of oil gain volume 6154 barrels as well as 105% increase of gain percentage for three months after matrix acidizing.
Business incubator is a new effective mechanism in developing small projects through its introductions of a new integral system of services. It aims at supporting and developing making new projects. Hence, there is a big number of factors that are interrelated in the processes of preparation for those projects. Those factors are: organizing the incubator and the market available for the projects attached to them and the work programs which will have to be implemented. Those small projects represent more than 98% of the total work institutions in the world. Also it has become responsible for a ration reaching half of the national output of those countries. These projects have created between 40 to 80% of job opportunities availabl

Among the different passive techniques heat pipe heat exchanger (HPHE) seems to be the most effective one for energy saving in heating ventilation and air conditioning system (HVAC). The applications for nanofluids with high conductivity are favorable to increase the thermal performance in HPHE. Even though the nanofluid has the higher heat conduction coefficient that dispels more heat theoretically but the higher concentration will make clustering .Clustering is a problem that must be solved before nanofluids can be considered for long-term practical uses. Results showed that the maximum value of relative power is 0.13 mW at nanofluid compared with other concentrations due to the low density of nanofluid at this concentration. For highe

Due to the easily access to the satellite images, Google Earth (GE) images have become more popular than other online virtual globes. However, the popularity of GE is not an indication of its accuracy. A considerable amount of literature has been published on evaluating the positional accuracy of GE data; however there are few studies which have investigated the subject of improving the GE accuracy. In this paper, a practical method for enhancing the horizontal positional accuracy of GE is suggested by establishing ten reference points, in University of Baghdad main campus, using different Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) observation techniques: Rapid Static, Post-Processing Kinematic, and Network. Then, the GE image for the study

Show MoreImplementation of TSFS (Transposition, Substitution, Folding, and Shifting) algorithm as an encryption algorithm in database security had limitations in character set and the number of keys used. The proposed cryptosystem is based on making some enhancements on the phases of TSFS encryption algorithm by computing the determinant of the keys matrices which affects the implementation of the algorithm phases. These changes showed high security to the database against different types of security attacks by achieving both goals of confusion and diffusion.

There are many studies dealt with handoff management in mobile communication systems and some of these studies presented handoff schemes to manage this important process in cellular network. All previous schemes used relative signal strength (RSS) measurements. In this work, a new proposed handoff scheme had been presented depending not only on the RSS measurements but also used the threshold distance and neighboring BSS power margins in order to improve the handoff management process. We submitted here a threshold RSS as a condition to make a handoff when a mobile station moves from one cell to another this at first, then we submitted also a specified margin between the current received signal and the ongoing BS's received signal must be s

Freedom of opinion is one of the freedoms that constitutions and laws have guaranteed to protect and is exercised through the media. However, this freedom must be exercised within certain limits, which include respecting a person’s right to preserve his privacy, image and reputation. Just as the media has the freedom to exercise its right to publish and express its opinion with complete frankness, it is in return obligated to respect the rights of others and avoid defaming them and violating their privacy. If the media does this, the injured party has the right to demand compensation for the damage he has suffered as a result.
The present work describes guggul as a novel carrier for some anti-inflammatory drugs. Guggulusomes containing different concentration of guggul with aceclofenac were prepared by sonication method and characterized for vesicle shape, size, size-distribution, pH, viscosity, spread ability, homogeneity, and accelerated stability in-vitro drug permeation through mouse skin. The vesicles exhibited an entrapment efficiency of 93.2 ± 12%, vesicle size of 0.769 ± 3μm and a zeta potential of - 6.21mV. In vitro drug release was analyzed using Franz’s diffusion cells. The cumulative release of the guggulusomes gel (G2) was 75.8% in 18 hrs, which is greater than that all the gel formulation. The stability profile of prepare
