We started off discussing the fixed agenda topics for this meeting Photography o Those with iOS 13 can open the photo app quickly by swiping left from the lock screen. Another quick way is to bring the control panel onto the screen (swipe down from above the top right of an iPad screen or up from the bottom of an iPhone screen) then select the camera icon. Alternatively, locate the camera icon on the screen. Having the camera icon in the ‘dock’ is also handy as it then appears on every screen. o The camera has the ability to alter its default settings for focus and lighting by touching the yellow square that appears when the camera first starts or if you touch the screen. Touching and holding the yellow square allows fine adjustments for light. Touching the screen where you want the camera to focus on, changes the automatic option. o Once the photo is taken, try editing the result by touching the photo then touching edit. Have a play with all of the options and see the effect it has. You can discard changes at any time or save them as separate photos. Try ‘marking up’ making pen marks on a picture using an array of pens and colours. o Security of your photos should be top of mind. The best option is to store them in in a cloud computing service such as Apple Photos or Google Photos.

As well as gaining a better understanding of formal and informal groups involved in community decision-making, they can come to appreciate that within and between groups there can be a wide range of perspectives and ways in which individual and group voices can raise and resolve their concerns. They will also gain an understanding of what individual, community and national confl ict resolution strategies and channels are available. It is hoped that this understanding will encourage students to engage in wider school and community decision-making.

  • Acidising Case Study – Kawerau Injection Wells
    PROCEEDINGS, Thirty-Sixth Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering Stanford University, Stanford, California, January 31 - February 2, 2011 SGP-TR-191 ACIDISING CASE STUDY – KAWERAU INJECTION WELLS Yoong Wei Lim1, Malcolm Grant2, Kevin Brown3, Christine Siega1 and Farrell Siega1 1 Mighty River Power, 283 Vaughan Road, Rotorua, New Zealand 2 MAGAK, 208D Runciman Road, RD2 Pukekohe 2677 New Zealand 3 GEOKEM, P.O. Box 30-125, St Martins, Christchurch, New Zealand e-mail: 1 [email protected]; ABSTRACT Brine at the Kawerau Geothermal Limited (KGL) plant was injected into three injection wells (KA43, KA44 and PK4A). Since plant commissioning, the capacity of the wells declined to the point where well intervention was necessary to avoid loss of generation. Investigative work was initiated with multi-rate injection tests which found that the injection index of the wells had declined significantly to approximately half of pre-utilisation levels. Further geochemistry analysis identified that the most likely source of injectivity decline was scaling due to colloidal silica forming in the formation. KA44 and PK4A were acidised using a standard 10% hydrochloric acid pre-flush followed by a 10%:5% HF:HCL mud acid solution. A 2” coil tubing unit with a 5 hole 45º nozzle bottom hole assembly was used giving a maximum pump rate of 3.5 - 4.0 barrels per minute. Feedzones were acidised one at a time starting with the deeper zones. Post well injection tests identified that the acidising Figure 1: Location of the Kawerau Geothermal Field had recovered the injectivity of the deeper feedzones but the shallower feedzones remain blocked with Silica precipitation at Kawerau has been a concern scale.
