Abstract:
Oil is the black blood that runs through the veins of the modern global energy system. While being the dominant source of energy, oil has also brought wealth and power to the western world. Future supply for oil is unsure or even expected to decrease due to limitations imposed by peak oil. Energy is fundamental to all parts of society. The enormous growth and development of society in the last two-hundred years has been driven by rapid increase in the extraction of fossil fuels. In the foresee-able future, the majority of energy will still come from fossil fuels. Consequently, reliable methods

Abstract:
The batch distillation of crude wood oil by direct liquefaction was studied; azeotropic distillations and some characterization were also performed. It was found that 26-33 percent of the crude wood oil could be distilled by simple batch vacuum distillations with pressures from 50-300 mm Hg. With the use of ethylene glycol and glycerol 29-85 percent more oil was distilled partly due to the azeotrope formed which allows the oil to boil at a reduced pressure. The water liberated and the polymerization which took place during the distillations were studied. It was found that fluid catalytic crack

Refineries are amongst the largest industrial energy users. The preheat trains of their crude distillation units, extensive heat exchanger networks, are key facilities for energy efficiency.

Modelling of crude oil fouling deposits has been traditionally limited to thermal resistances.

Abstract:
La formation de dépôts paraffiniques dans les pipelines, au cours du transport et de la production, est l’une des principales préoccupations de l’industrie pétrolière. Afin de mieux comprendre la formation de dépôt et d’améliorer les techniques de remédiation existantes, il est nécessaire de connaître la structuration multi-échelle des bruts en volume et sous écoulement. Dans un premier temps, afin de mieux décrire la structuration multi-échelle des huiles paraffiniques en volume, une stratégie multimodale combinant la microscopie optique, la diffusion de Rayons-X et la RMN bas champs a été pr

This diploma thesis deals with FEM analysis and optimization of carriage for top drive system of drilling rig Bentec 350 AC and it is defined as a development contract for company MND Drilling & Services a.s. Intensive drilling leads to damages and repeated occurrence of fatigue cracks on carriage especially along edges of welded ribs in their heat-affected zone. The aim of this thesis is to draft construction improvements of carriage which leads to elimination of damages. Realization of this modifications depends on correct definition of boundary conditions, analysis of damage occurrence as w

It carries out simulation and assesses their performance. Two strategies are studied, one is fundamental analysis and the other technical analysis. The fundamental analysis is based on Milonas and Thomadakis (2001). They pointed out that convenience yield is the most important factor of the futures spread, so this study builds the VAR model, make out-of-sample forecasts, establishes trading strategy, and simulates the performance of the trading

Although OPEC declared that the higher oil price is resulted from the manipulation by market players in the futures market, it still has the dispute in the scientific theory or principle. This research draws up by the directly analytic method, and adopts technical analysis which habitually used in the futures market players to actually examine if the technical analysis can explain the fluctuatio

Given the increasing output of the US shale oil and gas and the sustained high oil prices, many countries have started to explore and estimate their domestic shale oil and shale gas reserves. As a result, it is very likely that the global energy market could be affected by future large-scale worldwide shale oil and gas production.

Therefore, it is important to see future trend of the crude oil price. This thesis aims to find a better forecasting model for crude oil prices. Based upon the previous studies, some forecasting models used for crude oil prices are carried out. Time series models including ARMA, ARFIMA, GARCH, and Markov Switching model are used for comparative analysis for crude oil price forcasting. An empirical analysis is conducted based
