  • The Mineral Industry of Iraq in 2015
    2015 Minerals Yearbook IRAQ [ADVANCE RELEASE] U.S. Department of the Interior May 2019 U.S. Geological Survey The Mineral Industry of Iraq By Loyd M. Trimmer III In 2015, Iraq’s mineral industry continued to be negatively Other mineral deposits within Iraq included the Lazzaga affected by the ongoing armed conflict in the country. Although native sulfur deposits located in the Ninawa Governorate, the country’s economy was constrained by both the armed feldspar deposits located in the An Najaf Governorate, and conflict and the decline in global petroleum prices, the country gypsum deposits located in the Governorates of Al Anbar, continued to be an important global producer and exporter of Ninawa, Salah ad Din, and Wasit. The Government was crude petroleum. In 2015, Iraq was the world’s sixth-ranked seeking investors to develop a feldspar mine and flotation plant crude petroleum producer and third-ranked crude petroleum to produce feldspar concentrate in the An Najaf Governorate. exporter. The country produced 1.47 billion barrels (Gbbl) of Geosurv-Iraq estimated that the country hosted resources of crude petroleum in 2015. Iraq hosted the world’s fifth-largest 330 million metric tons (Mt) of dolomite, 130 Mt of gypsum, proven crude petroleum reserves, accounting for 8.4% of the 1,200 Mt of kaolinitic clay stones, 8,000 Mt of limestone, 600 Mt world’s total.

  • Analysis of Well Head Pressure Sensor Data for Anomaly Detection in Oil Well Using Iiot and Unsupervised Learning Technique
    International Research Journal of Engineering and Technology (IRJET) e-ISSN: 2395-0056 Volume: 06 Issue: 10 | Oct 2019 www.irjet.net p-ISSN: 2395-0072 Analysis of Well Head Pressure Sensor Data for Anomaly Detection in Oil Well using IIoT and Unsupervised learning Technique Shreyas Lele1 1B.Tech ( Information Technology ), Software Engineer ----------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract - Devices with sensors and IIOT analysis became a breakthrough in modern technology. IIOT is used in almost all areas of technology. In the oil and gas industry, IIOT-based analytics is critical. This paper presents our approach where we apply unsupervised learning technique on pressure sensors data to detect the anomaly in Oil well by predicting future pressure values. This document focuses on the number of advances in IIOT technologies thereby helping in analysis of high precision sensor data for future prediction of Oil well parameters. The industrial Internet of things represents the great opportunity in recent decades for the advancement of industrial technology and machine learning. Several engineering techniques that require expertise and data that are difficult to obtain are used currently to predict well performance. In this report, focus is on how advanced machine learning algorithms can be applied on huge amount of sensor data which will greatly ease Oil well maintenance and defect predictions thereby helping the customer to get notified about the issues in the Oil well before hand. Key Words: IIOT, Prediction, Machine Learning, Unsupervised Learning 1. INTRODUCTION Oil and Gas industry is one of the prominent and necessary industries. The workflow of these industries is generally categorized in three levels: (a) Upstream, (b) Midstream and (c) Downstream.

  • Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Oil Sludge with Corn Stover for Efficient Biogas
    sustainability Article Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Oil Sludge with Corn Stover for Efficient Biogas Production Qian Yang 1,2, Chenxi Zhang 1,2,*, Lei Li 1 and Weijie Xu 1 1 College of Biological and Environmental Engineering, Binzhou University, Binzhou 256600, China; [email protected] 2 Shandong Engineering and Technology Research Center for Fragile Ecological Belt of Yellow River Delta, Binzhou 256600, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 26 December 2019; Accepted: 27 February 2020; Published: 1 March 2020 Abstract: The feasibility of anaerobic co-digestion for the utilization of oil sludge was verified using corn stover, to assess the influence of different raw material ratios and inoculum volumes on the properties of the generated gas. The anaerobic co-digestion method is a novel treatment technology, which may help to solve the problem of pollution by hazardous waste oil sand from the oil exploitation and smelting process. Results showed that single-oil sludge was not suitable for gas production as a digestive substrate due to the lack of organic materials and possible hazardous materials. With the increase in the quality of exogenous organic matter (corn stover), the cumulative gas production volume was proportional to the amount of corn stover material added. It was established that when the mass ratio of corn stover to oil sludge was 4:1, the gas production performance was optimal, with a cumulative gas yield of 1222.5 mL using an inoculum volume of 30 mL. The results of this study provide a fundamental parameter baseline for the treatment of oil sludge and the improvement of gas production efficiency.
