Water plugging by emulsified viscous oil s a kind of advanced technology with high selectivity, which causes little damage to reservoir and brings high economic benefit for oil wells. Through a series of simulation experiments in the laboratory, the effects of temperature, water ratio, salinity, the emulsifier concentration, the viscosity of crude oil on the emulsion viscosity is studied, also long-term stability of emulsion. The following analysis of the experimental data makes the main factor affecting water plugging by emulsified heavy oil clear. By the Indoor core simulation experiment, this paper determines changes of pressure, recovery and breakthrough pressure and studies injection capacity of emulsified crude oil and sealing performance to ensure reasonable injection parameters.

In this paper, we fabricate and evaluate superhydrophobic surfaces with mushroom-shaped microstructures. Using a silicon master and polymer microstructure patterning, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces bearing mushroom-shaped structures with five different spacing ratios are prepared and tested with water droplets of different temperatures. The fabricated PDMS surfaces demonstrate superhydrophobicity even to high-temperature water droplets with decreased surface tension. We compare the experimental data with the theoretical results calculated based on the Cassie state and Eötvös rule. Our work suggests potential applications to control wettability with liquids of various temperatures.

Abstract High-temperature water-based drilling fluid systems hold several advantages over synthetic based systems from financial and environmental viewpoints. However, most conventional water-based systems start to become unstable at temperatures above 300 degF. This paper details the design and implementation of A Novel Water-Based Drilling Fluid that meet these temperature stability requirements. The newly developed high-temperature water-based system discussed in this paper utilizes a custom-made branched synthetic polymer that exhibits superior rheological properties and fluid loss control as well as long term stability above 400 degF. The branched synthetic polymer is compatible with most oilfield brines and maintains excellent low-end rheology necessary for hole cleaning and solids suspension under high-temperatures and pressures. Under static conditions, the high-temperature fluid shows no gelation resulting in lower swab surge pressures while the stability of the highly branched synthetic polymer and enhanced rheological profile minimize sag. To drill a challenging exploration well, a Middle East client required a cost-effective drilling fluid system which remains stable under static temperatures expected to exceed 375 degF. The long-term stability of the system was critical for successful wireline logging operations. In addition, the system was required to provide shale inhibition, hydrogen sulfide suppression and sufficient density (above 16.5 lbm/galUS) to maintain well integrity while drilling through anticipated high-pressure zones. The challenging intermediate (12.25-in and 8.375-in) and reservoir (6-in) sections were successfully drilled and evaluated using this new branched synthetic polymer-based system. Fluid property trends and system treatments will be detailed alongside thermal stability data for extended periods required for wireline logging (up to 9 days static). This paper will discuss how proper laboratory design of the high-temperature water-based system was translated to excellent field performance and will indicate how this technology can be utilized for future campaigns in the region and worldwide.

Abstract. The concept of emotional intelligence (EI) has attracted growing interest from researchers working in various fields. The present study examined the long-term stability (32 months) of EI-related abilities over the course of a major life transition (the transition from high school to university). During the first week of full-time study, a large group of undergraduates completed the EQ-i:Short; 32 months later a random subset of these students (N = 238), who had started their postsecondary education within 24 months of graduating from high school, completed the measures for a second time. The study found EI scores to be relatively stable over the 32-month time period. EI scores were also found to be significantly higher at Time 2; the overall pattern of change in EI-levels was more than can be attributed to the increased age of the participants.

SummaryIn a collaborative trial of eleven laboratories which was performed mainly within the framework of the European Community Bureau of Reference (BCR), a second reference material for thromboplastin, rabbit, plain, was calibrated against its predecessor RBT/79. This second reference material (coded CRM 149R) has a mean International Sensitivity Index (ISI) of 1.343 with a standard error of the mean of 0.035. The standard error of the ISI was determined by combination of the standard errors of the ISI of RBT/79 and the slope of the calibration line in this trial.The BCR reference material for thromboplastin, human, plain (coded BCT/099) was also included in this trial for assessment of the long-term stability of the relationship with RBT/79. The results indicated that this relationship has not changed over a period of 8 years. The interlaboratory variation of the slope of the relationship between CRM 149R and RBT/79 was significantly lower than the variation of the slope of the relationship between BCT/099 and RBT/79. In addition to the manual technique, a semi-automatic coagulometer according to Schnitger & Gross was used to determine prothrombin times with CRM 149R. The mean ISI of CRM 149R was not affected by replacement of the manual technique by this particular coagulometer.Two lyophilized plasmas were included in this trial. The mean slope of relationship between RBT/79 and CRM 149R based on the two lyophilized plasmas was the same as the corresponding slope based on fresh plasmas. Tlowever, the mean slope of relationship between RBT/79 and BCT/099 based on the two lyophilized plasmas was 4.9% higher than the mean slope based on fresh plasmas. Thus, the use of these lyophilized plasmas induced a small but significant bias in the slope of relationship between these thromboplastins of different species.

SummaryThe International Reference Preparation of human brain thromboplastin coded 67/40 has been thought to show evidence of instability. The evidence is discussed and is not thought to be strong; but it is suggested that it would be wise to replace 67/40 with a new preparation of human brain, both for this reason and because 67/40 is in a form (like Thrombotest) in which few workers seem to use human brain. A �plain� preparation would be more appropriate; and a freeze-dried sample of BCT is recommended as the successor preparation. The opportunity should be taken also to replace the corresponding ox and rabbit preparations. In the collaborative study which would be required it would then be desirable to test in parallel the three old and the three new preparations. The relative sensitivities of the old preparations could be compared with those found in earlier studies to obtain further evidence on the stability of 67/40; if stability were confirmed, the new preparations should be calibrated against it, but if not, the new human material should receive a calibration constant of 1.0 and the new ox and rabbit materials calibrated against that.The types of evidence available for monitoring the long-term stability of a thromboplastin are discussed.
