The article is devoted to the problem of improving the substantiation of the diagnostics of production Jurassic and Neocomian reservoirs in the West Siberian basin. We have formed the complex of geochemical investigations of core material to solve this problem. It includes extraction of bitumen with its material composition detection, thermal desorption and analysis of retained hydrocarbons. Using the obtained data, we have carried out a comparative analysis of Jurassic sediment intervals in two wells within one field. We studied the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the hydrocarbon core fluid, determined the geochemical criteria of its mobility in reservoir conditions, namely the ratio of the naphthenic component to n-alkanes. Also, we carried out inter-well correlation of the relations of n-alkanes and isoprenoids, established the facies conditions of sedimentogenesis and oxidation-reduction conditions of the initial stage of organic matter fossilization. Based on the chromatograms of retained gases we determined the efficiency criteria of the interval such as benzene/n-hexane and toluene/n-heptane. Conclusions about the saturation of the studied intervals were confirmed by inspection test record. The results of the work showed that complex geochemical studies of the core can significantly increase the reliability of the diagnosis of the drilled sediments saturation.

Abstract Polymer flooding is one of the most mature EOR technology applied successfully in a broad range of reservoir conditions. The last developments made in polymer chemistries allowed pushing the boundaries of applicability towards higher temperature and salinity carbonate reservoirs. Specifically designed sulfonated acrylamide-based copolymers (SPAM) have been proven to be stable for more than one year at 120°C and are the best candidates to comply with Middle East carbonate reservoir conditions. Numerous studies have shown good injectivity and propagation properties of SPAM in carbonate cores with permeabilities ranging from 70 to 150 mD in presence of oil. This study aims at providing new insights on the propagation of SPAM in carbonate reservoir cores having permeabilities ranging between 10 and 40 mD. Polymer screening was performed in the conditions of ADNOC onshore carbonate reservoir using a 260 g/L TDS synthetic formation brine together with oil and core material from the reservoir. All the experiments were performed at residual oil saturation (Sor). The experimental approach aimed at reproducing the transport of the polymer entering the reservoir from the sand face up to a certain depth. Three reservoir coreflood experiments were performed in series at increasing temperatures and decreasing rates to mimic the progression of the polymer in the reservoir with a radial velocity profile. A polymer solution at 2000 ppm was injected in the first core at 100 mL/h and 40°C. Effluents were collected and injected in the second core at 20 mL/h and 70°C. Effluents were collected again and injected in the third core at 4 mL/h and 120°C. A further innovative approach using reservoir minicores (6 mm length disks) was also implemented to screen the impact of different parameters such as Sor, molecular weight and prefiltration step on the injectivity of the polymer solutions. According to minicores data, shearing of the polymer should help to ensure good propagation and avoid pressure build-up at the core inlet. This result was confirmed through an injection in a larger core at Sor and at 120°C. When comparing the injection of sheared and unsheared polymer at the same concentration, core inlet impairment was suppressed with the sheared polymer and the same range of mobility reduction (Rm) was achieved in the internal section of the core although viscosity was lower for the sheared polymer. Such result indicates that shearing is an efficient way to improve injectivity while maximizing the mobility reduction by suppressing the loss of product by filtration/retention at the core inlet. This paper gives new insights concerning SPAM rheology in low permeability carbonate cores. Additionally, it provides an innovative and easier approach for screening polymer solutions to anticipate their propagation in more advanced coreflooding experiments.

To assess the influence of zeolite group minerals on the migration of reservoir fluids in terrigenous deposits, complex (X-ray and gas-geochemical) studies of core material in the Yamal oil and gas region field were conducted. 54 core samples from the Pyakyakhinsky and Yuzhno-Messoyakhsky deposits were studied including 43 zeolitized and 11 non-zeolitized samples. The core samples were studied by gas chromatography to determine the content of hydrocarbons adsorbed in the pore space of the core, as well as by X-ray diffractometry to determine the mineral composition of the samples under study. The regularities of hydrocarbons distribution in the studied samples depending on the degree of their zeolization are established. The differences in the distribution of hydrocarbons in zeolitized and non-zeolitized siltstones have their own explanation. Having an ordered crystal structure and a certain size of the entrance windows zeolites are able to sorb.

Studies on recycled materials emerged during recent years. This paper investigates samples’ sound absorption properties for panels fabricated of a mixture of paper sludge (PS) and clay mixture. PS was the core material. The sound absorption was measured. We also consider the influence of an air gap between panels and rigid backing. Different air gaps (50, 100, 150, 200 mm) simulate existing acoustic panel systems. Finally, the PS and clay composite panel sound absorption coefficients are compared to those for a typical commercial absorptive ceiling panel. The average sound absorption coefficient of PS-clay composite panels (αavg. in the frequency range from 250 to 1600 Hz) was up to 0.55. The resulting average sound absorption coefficient of panels made of recycled (but unfinished) materials is even somewhat higher than for the finished commercial (finished) acoustic panel (αavg. = 0.51).

Core-shell materials are promising functional materials for fundamental research and industrial application, as their properties can be adapted for specific applications. In particular, particles featuring iron or iron oxide as core material are relevant since they combine magnetic and catalytic properties. The addition of an SiO2 shell around the core particles introduces additional design aspects, such as a pore structure and surface functionalization. Herein, we describe the synthesis and application of iron-based core-shell nanoparticles for two different fields of research that is heterogeneous catalysis and water purification. The iron-based core shell materials were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, as well as N2-physisorption, X-ray diffraction, and vibrating-sample magnetometer measurements in order to correlate their properties with the performance in the target applications. Investigations of these materials in CO2 hydrogenation and water purification show their versatility and applicability in different fields of research and application, after suitable individual functionalization of the core-shell precursor. For design and application of magnetically separable particles, the SiO2 shell is surface-functionalized with an ionic liquid in order to bind water pollutants selectively. The core requires no functionalization, as it provides suitable magnetic properties in the as-made state. For catalytic application in synthesis gas reactions, the SiO2-stabilized core nanoparticles are reductively functionalized to provide the catalytically active metallic iron sites. Therefore, Fe@SiO2 core-shell nanostructures are shown to provide platform materials for various fields of application, after a specific functionalization.

The shell material of microcapsules has an important effect on the electrolytic co-deposition behavior, the release of core material and the surface performance of composite coating. This paper discussed the tensile property and the stability of three shell materials including polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), gelatin and methyl cellulose (MC). It is found that these three shell materials have good mechanical strength and flexibility which are favorable to electrolytic co-deposition and stability of microcapsules in composite coating and that MC has well permeability and porosity which has a positive effect on the release of the core material in composite coating. Moreover, the study of the thermal properties and water vapor permeability of the three shell materials showed that their permeability improved with increase of temperature and humidity. In addition, the composite copper coating containing microcapsules with PVA, gelatin or MC as shell material was prepared respectively.

The kinetics of permanganate oxidation of DL-α-alanine in aqueous perchloric acid solution at a constant ionic strength of 2.0 mol dm−3 has been investigated spectrophotometrically. The reaction was found to show second-order kinetics overall with respect to each of the reactants in the slow initial stage; the second-order kinetics are not, however, maintained throughout the relatively fast final stage of reaction. The added salts lead to the prediction that Mn(III) and (or) Mn(IV) play a very important role in the reaction kinetics. A tentative mechanism consistent with the kinetics is discussed.

The Stability

Stability and disintegration of natural polyelectrolyte complex microspheres for protein drugs delivery have been extensively investigated because of their great influence on the drug release patterns. In this study, we tested stability of microspheres with alginate (Alg) core layered by either chitosan (Chi) or glycol chitosan (GChi) by examining release profiles of fluorophorelabeled bovine serum albumin (BSA) and lysozyme (Lys) from the microspheres. While GChi shell was disintegrated quickly, Chi-shell microspheres showed good stability in PBS. Disintegration of the coated layer induced the core material instable. The results indicated that while the charges of the shell material provided additional diffusion barrier against the protein release, the key factor to hold the proteins inside the microspheres was the integrity of the outer coating layer.

Over Time

Mineral grains from three depths within the Luna 24 drill core ( ca . 90, 125 and 196 cm) have been examined for solar-flare tracks. Large proportions (55-100%) of grains from all three levels are found to be track-rich (with central track densities p e > 10 8 cm -2 ), and a substantial fraction ( ca . 25-50%) of all grains display trackdensity gradients. These observations indicate that most of the mineral grains have been cycled through the top ca . 1 mm of the lunar surface at some time in their history. Some degree of submaturity is observed towards the bottom of the core. The most likely depositional model envisages rapid infall of highly irradiated material into a less mature local component with rather little subsequent reworking. Thermoluminescence (t.l.) studies indicate a lower natural radiation dose in samples from the 196 cm level compared with those from the two upper levels. This can result either from random variations in the local internal radioactivity or from mixing properties of the pre-irradiated material over time scales of less than ca . 100 ka. Radiation sensitization of samples suggests a possible use of t.l. sensitivity for the interpretation of lunar radiation history.
