Moreover, exports, along with oil wells, gem mining and teak production were controlled by the monarch.

Although the Netherlands owns substantial gas reserves in the North Sea, most of its production is presently from on-shore wells, and much of the natural gas produced by the Netherlands comes from Groningen Province, which borders the North Sea.

* Drilling engineers manage the technical aspects of drilling exploratory, production and injection wells.

Large amounts of water, sometimes saline, are produced from coalbed methane wells, especially in the early stages of production.

In the absence measured methane content of coalbeds, and production data from coalbed methane wells, gas content can be estimated using the Eddy curve.

" In 1940, the first oil wells were sunk in the county's Willamar Oil Field ; today oil production is a major part of the local economy, although increasingly eclipsed by natural gas.

There are commercial production wells in the northwestern part of Columbia and surface water withdrawals also occur from Schoodic Lake, Duck Pond and Myers Pond.

The recent discovery includes some of the most productive on-shore oil wells in the United States, with initial production frequently exceeding of oil a day per well.

Both of these types of vessel are constructed in marine yards but are often involved during the construction phase to pre-drill some production wells.

Multiple packer systems with frac ports or port collars in an all in one system have cut completion costs and improved production, especially in the case of horizontal wells.

Such methods require the use of injection wells ( often chosen from old production wells in a carefully determined pattern ), and are used when facing problems with reservoir pressure depletion, high oil viscosity, or can even be employed early in a field's life.

Located on Punta Europa, west of Malabo, the Alba Gas Plant processes natural gas delivered from offshore production wells.

However, it is more accurate to divide the oil industry into three sectors: upstream ( crude production from wells and separation of water from oil ), midstream ( pipeline and tanker transport of crude ) and downstream ( refining and marketing of refined products ).

Troll A is scheduled to receive two additional gas compressors to increase production volume and compensate for dropping reservoir pressure in the wells.

Oil production began in the surrounding basin in 1914, with wells drilled by Bataafsche Petroleum Maatschappij, a predecessor of Royal Dutch Shell.

The first oil wells went into production in 1440, but their oil was also only for household use.

Conventional crude oil is normally extracted from the ground by drilling oil wells into a petroleum reservoir, allowing oil to flow into them under natural reservoir pressures, although artificial lift and techniques such as water flooding and gas injection are usually required to maintain production as reservoir pressure drops toward the end of a field's life.

Some years ago Canadian oil companies discovered that if they removed the sand filters from the wells and produced as much sand as possible with the oil, production rates improved remarkably.

It is becoming common for wells to be put through one CSS injection-soak-production cycle to condition the formation prior to going to SAGD production, and companies are experimenting with combining VAPEX with SAGD to improve recovery rates and lower energy costs.

Petrobank Energy and Resources has reported encouraging results from their test wells in Alberta, with production rates of up to per well, and the oil upgraded from 8 to 12 API degrees.

This is an experimental method that employs a number of vertical air injection wells above a horizontal production well located at the base of the bitumen pay zone.

Following that cycle, air is injected into the vertical wells, igniting the upper bitumen and mobilizing ( through heating ) the lower bitumen to flow into the production well.

Because of the vast quantity of newly opened wells in Texas and Oklahoma, oil prices had sunk below the costs of production.

and, though he repeated, over and over again, the spectacular figures of industrial and agricultural production in 1980, the `` ordinary '' people in Russia are still a little uncertain as to how `` communism '' is really going to work in practice, especially in respect of food.

Production specialists in SBA regional offices are available to help individual small business concerns with technical production problems.

Production specialists are available in SBA regional offices to help individual small business concerns with technical production problems.

Small Business Administration, What It Is, What It Does, SBA Services For Community Economic Development, and various other useful publications on currently important management, technical production, and marketing topics are available, on request, from Small Business Administration, Washington 25, D.C..

Funds contributed by the Government are repaid by a royalty on production from the property.

Both of these systems are essential for the production, development, and use of the National Forests.

Currently, there are some 6000 companies in the field, ranging from small firms with a handful of employees to major concerns having complete facilities for production of metal, electrical, and plastic components.

Huge industries are involved also in the production of biological products, drugs and cosmetics which are liable to this type of attack.

The basic objectives in each instance are to make available supplies of food during the intervals between harvesting or slaughter, to minimize losses resulting from the action of microorganisms and insects, and to make it possible to transport foods from the area of harvest or production to areas of consumption.

What are the possibilities of lowered radiation production costs for the future??

Because agricultural activities are seasonal and the areas of production and harvest of many foods are widely scattered geographically, and because of the high cost of transporting bulk food items any substantial distance to a central processing location, the use of large central processing stations, where low-cost radiation facilities approaching the megawatt range might be utilized, is inherently impracticable.

ground meats are usually prepared from scrap meats at the local level, whereas irradiation at economic volumes of production would require central processing and distribution facilities.

Present estimates are that production topped the 100-million-lb. mark in 1960 ( 85 to 90 million lb. for flexible, 10 or 11 million lb. for rigid ) ; ;

On the contrary, the old plays are continually being reinterpreted, and each new production of a classic has only a brief history at the Comedie.

The films below are listed with their production year, so the Oscar 2000 for best art direction went to a film from 1999.

Currently Algerian cinema is in a phase of restructuring ; the French-wing is taking the lead over the Algerian one, and many film production are written in French rather than Algerian arabic.

Its other main uses are for bituminous waterproofing products, including production of roofing felt and for sealing flat roofs.

Arsenic and its compounds, especially the trioxide, are used in the production of pesticides ( treated wood products ), herbicides, and insecticides.

He argues that this casts doubt on the notion that recessions are caused by a reallocation of resources from industrial production to consumption, since he argues that the Austrian business cycle theory implies that net investment should be below zero during recessions.

The usual symptoms are cough and sputum production, and secondary infections can occur.

In addition to asparagus, the production of hops plays a major role locally, the region having its own label, and there are still three independent breweries in the area.

It is improbable, however, that the production of amber was limited to a single species ; and indeed a large number of conifers belonging to different genera are represented in the amber-flora.

Graphics cards are designed primarily for 2D artwork production, workstation use, and later, gaming.
