Technology for capital projects Shell TechXplorer is a strictly internal-only magazine, Caroline Hern however. Shell TechXplorer Digest, in contrast, provides Geoscience Have you wondered what a medium through which the authors can communicate Shell has been up to lately their achievements to a wider readership. Robert Mainwaring Downstream products in the realm of technology? Editorial services RSK Group Ltd, UK Ajay Mehta New Energies Well, this publication will give you a glimpse of the answer. It contains a selection of technical Editorial email address articles written by specialists for nonspecialists, who often make the connections that spread [email protected] Joe Powell know-how within Shell. Yet, you will notice some non-Shell authors. This reflects how Chemical engineering accelerating the development and deployment of technology requires close collaboration Design and layout with outside parties – now more than ever. MCW, Rotterdam Bhaskar Ramachandran Michael de Jong Integrated gas – engineering projects Technical advances such as those that shorten a drilling rig’s idle time (p. 11) will continue as Anneke van der Heijden long as oil and gas are produced from wells. But other advances may soon make it possible for Downstream manufacturing offshore platforms to inject carbon dioxide into depleted reservoirs or to get their power from the electrical grid (p. 16), both of which could help to lower the emissions of upstream Frans van der Vlugt activities. The carbon footprints of downstream facilities can likewise be shrunk by using electric Reservoir engineering motors to drive compressors (p. 54); electric boilers to generate process steam (p. 65); and electric batteries to hold energy in reserve (p. 38). Self-cleaning filtration systems (p. 59) About the colour coding not only decrease the operating costs and emissions of facilities but also increase their uptime. The articles in this publication are grouped according to whether they contribute most to For motorists, we have formulated lubricants specifically for biodiesel engines (p. 39). And for Shellʼs Core Upstream, Leading Transition households and workplaces, we have been orchestrating complex ensembles of equipment that or Emerging Power strategic themes. variously generate, store, use and regulate heat and electricity (p. 81) (p. 69) (p. 73). With an eye to the more distant future, we have been looking at ways of extracting carbon dioxide from industrial flue gases and liquefying it for shipping to underground disposal sites (p. 44). At the same time, we have been developing ways to make a pair of tradable commodities – hydrogen and carbon – without any carbon dioxide emissions at all (p. 6)! Of course, digital technology can make virtually anything better: robots that tirelessly inspect equipment and assets (p. 22); cloud computing that constantly keeps track of flanged-pipe Core Upstream connections (p. 49); and image analysis that reveals exactly what is happening to fluids in the tortuous flow paths of rocks and catalysts (p. 28). DEEP WATER SHALES When the COVID pandemic wanes enough to make it safe for visitors to come to Shell CONVENTIONAL OIL AND GAS premises again, I hope that they will pick up a copy of Shell TechXplorer Digest, just like you have. After all, it provides compelling examples of how Shell and its technology development Leading Transition partners are building on their collective strength to answer the calls for action on climate change even while providing more of the cleaner energy that the world needs.

  • Ideal Homes? Social Change and Domestic Life
    IDEAL HOMES? Until now, the ‘home’ as a space within which domestic lives are lived out has been largely ignored by sociologists. Yet the ‘home’ as idea, place and object consumes a large proportion of individuals’ incomes, and occupies their dreams and their leisure time while the absence of a physical home presents a major threat to both society and the homeless themselves. This edited collection provides for the first time an analysis of the space of the ‘home’ and the experiences of home life by writers from a wide range of disciplines, including sociology, criminology, psychology, social policy and anthropology. It covers a range of subjects, including gender roles, different generations’ relationships to home, the changing nature of the family, transition, risk and alternative visions of home. Ideal Homes? provides a fascinating analysis which reveals how both popular images and experiences of home life can produce vital clues as to how society’s members produce and respond to social change. Tony Chapman is Head of Sociology at the University of Teesside. Jenny Hockey is Senior Lecturer in the School of Comparative and Applied Social Sciences, University of Hull. IDEAL HOMES? Social change and domestic life Edited by Tony Chapman and Jenny Hockey London and New York First published 1999 by Routledge 11 New Fetter Lane, London EC4P 4EE Simultaneously published in the USA and Canada by Routledge 29 West 35th Street, New York, NY 10001 Routledge is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group This edition published in the Taylor & Francis e-Library, 2002. © 1999 Selection and editorial matter Tony Chapman and Jenny Hockey; individual chapters, the contributors All rights reserved.
