The Petrobras Capixaba North Terminal - TNC is located in the state of Espirito Santo, in Brazil and is being built to receive the heavy and high viscosity oil produced onshore in the Fazenda Alegre field. This oil shall be heated prior to be pumped into the pipelines and it will be exported through a monobuoy and a tanker system. The two export pipelines are being laid to connect the onshore Terminal to a subsea PLEM to be installed under the monobuoy. The pipelines and PLEM were designed to operate with oil containing H2S in cyclic high temperature. This paper addresses the special concerns defined by the design activity to cope with the TNC operation conditions. It also focuses the modifications imposed to the installation process to fulfill the design and operation requirements.

According to the annual reports of oil companies, there is an increase in the production of high-viscosity and ultra-high-viscosity oil. At the same time, responsibility for the transportation of the product, which can occur under unsteady conditions and lead to emergency situations, is intensified. Thus, a forced shutdown of an oil pipeline during transportation of high-viscosity oil can cause the product to cool below critical temperatures, and further launch of the oil pipeline will be impossible. In this regard, the task of calculating the safe shutdown time of the oil pipeline has particular relevance. We have carried out a numerical study to determine the effect of the structural features of the heat stabilizer during the cooling time of oil in a stopped oil pipeline. The values of the cooling time of oil from the action of heat stabilizers, made by various manufacturers, were established. In addition, the effect of the length of the evaporation part and the installation distance of the heat stabilizer from the oil pipeline during the cooling time was studied.

The use of anti-turbulent and depressant additives makes it possible to increase the efficiency of oil pipelines transporting high-viscosity oil. In this method, the principle of increasing the efficiency of transportation is based on reducing the hydraulic resistance and increasing the fluidity of oil. The work carried out a theoretical study of the existing types of anti-turbulent and depressant additives. This article presents an experimental study of the effect of the MR 1088 depressant additive on an oil sample from the Usa – Ukhta main oil pipeline.

Diskresi sebagai wewenang bebas, keberadaannya rentan akan disalahgunakan. Penyalahgunaan diskresi yang berimplikasi merugikan keuangan negara dapat dituntutkan pertanggungjawabannya secara hukum administrasi maupun hukum pidana. Mengingat selama ini peraturan perundang-undangan tentang pemberantasan tindak pidana korupsi tidak merumuskan secara rinci yang dimaksudkan unsur menyalahgunakan kewenangan maka para hakim menggunakan konsep penyalahgunaan wewenang dari hukum administrasi. Problema muncul saat diberlakukannya Undang-Undang Nomor 30 Tahun 2014 dimana telah memicu persinggungan dalam hal kewenangan mengadili penyalahgunaan wewenang (termasuk diskresi) antara Pengadilan Tata Usaha Negara dengan Pengadilan Tindak Pidana Korupsi. Pada perkembangannya, persinggungan kewenangan mengadili tersebut ditegaskan oleh Peraturan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 4 Tahun 2015 bahwa PTUN berwenang menerima, memeriksa, dan memutus permohonan penilaian ada atau tidak ada penyalahgunaan wewenang (termasuk diskresi) dalam Keputusan dan/atau Tindakan Pejabat Pemerintahan sebelum adanya proses pidana. Sehubungan tidak dijelaskan tentang definisi dan batasan proses pidana yang dimaksud, maka timbul penafsiran yang berbeda. Perlu diadakan kesepakatan bersama dan dituangkan dalam regulasi tentang tapal batas persinggungan yang jelas tanpa meniadakan kewenangan pengujian penyalahgunaan wewenang diskresi pada Pengadilan TUN.Discretion as free authority is vulnerable to being misused. The abuse of discretion implicating the state finance may be prosecuted by both administrative and criminal law. In view of the fact that the law on corruption eradication does not formulate in detail the intended element of authority abuse, the judges use the concept of authority abuse from administrative law. Problems arise when the enactment of Law No. 30 of 2014 triggered an interception in terms of justice/ adjudicate authority on authority abuse (including discretion) between the Administrative Court and Corruption Court. In its development, the interception of justice authority is affirmed by Regulation of the Supreme Court Number 4 of 2015 that the Administrative Court has the authority to receive, examine and decide upon the appeal there is or there is no misuse of authority in the Decision and / or Action of Government Officials prior to the criminal process. That is, shortly before the commencement of the criminal process then that's when the authority of PTUN decides to judge the misuse of authority over the case. In this context, Perma No. 4 of 2015 has imposed restrictions on the authority of the TUN Court in prosecuting the abuse of discretionary authority.

In Ayurveda, Jwara is not merely the concept of raised body temperature, but as is said in Charaka Samhita, 'Deha- Indriya- Manah- Santap' is the cardinal symptoms of Jwara. This can be defined as the state where the body, mind as well as sense oragans suffer due to the high temperature. Vishamajwara is a type of fever, which is described in all Ayurvedic texts. Charaka mentioned Vishamajwara and Chakrapani have commented on Vishamajwara as Bhutanubanda, Susruta affirmed that Aagantuchhanubhandohi praysho Vishamajware. Madhavakara has also recognised Vishamajwara as Bhutabhishangajanya (infected by microorganism). Vishamajwara is irregular (inconsistent) in it's Arambha (nature of onset commitment), Kriya (action production of symptoms) and Kala (time of appearance) and possesses Anushanga (persistence for long periods). The treatment of this disease depends upon Vegavastha and Avegavastha of Jwara. Various Shodhana and Shamana procedures are mentioned in classics to treat Visham Jwara.
