Abstract:

AbstractOur purpose in writing this article is two-fold. First , we will provide a brief description of the incorporation process in Romania, the evolution thereof, and the policies that support the process. This description will also include a brief comparison of Delaware law and practice. We have selected Delaware since, among other (perceived) benefi ts offered to investors, the Delaware spirit refl ects the liberal corporate policies that many observers believe attract entrepreneurs to that state. On one hand, the process of establishing a business entity has been wiped clean of formalism, thereby accelerating the procedure to the point that incorporation can generally be realized in less than one day. On the other hand, the corporate governance legal framework (both statutory and case law) allows investors to shape their business activity in almost any manner they desire. Second , it offers a set of recommendations for further improving shareholders' "freedom of contract"—the institution that opposes traditional continental doctrines justifying state interventionism in economic ventures.

Abstract:

The purpose of the paper is to introduce a recursive model of ecological discursive sustainability, as it applies to and emerges from the history of an after-school program partnership between the School of Education at the University of Delaware, USA and the Latin American Community Center in Wilmington, Delaware, USA. This model is characterized by the development of shared ownership and collaboration between the institutional partners, the co-evolution and crossfertilization of the partners’ practices and the negotiation of institutional boundaries and structures. This model was developed by analyzing dialogic discourses across six diverse ecological domains of the partnership.

Abstract:

_ This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper SPE 204162, “Multiwell-Pressure History Matching in Delaware Play Helps Optimize Fracturing for Subsequent Pads,” by Roberto Suarez‑Rivera, SPE, and Rohit Panse, W.D. Von Gonten Laboratories, and Javad Sovizi, Baker Hughes, et al. The paper has not been peer reviewed. _ Because hydraulic fracture models include complex physics and uncertainties defined by many variables, the problem of calibrating modeling results with field responses is ill-posed. It is always possible to find a calibrated model that reproduces field data; however, such a model is not unique and multiple matching solutions exist. The objective and scope of the complete paper is to define a work flow for constraining these solutions and obtaining a more-representative model for forecasting and optimization. Introduction In this project, a work flow is presented that uses an ultrafast hydraulic fracturing model with well-known physics and high-confidence rock-property inputs to conduct sensitivity analysis for pad-scale field development. Based on a study of uncertainty on the model variables, the two most-uncertain variables (tectonic strain and leakoff multiplier) are selected for model calibrations. Model results are compared with the field response for all wells and all stages to better understand the discrepancies between the field and the model. Pressure history matching (PHM) is then conducted by adjusting the selected two variables until the global error of all stages and all wells is minimized. The results are nonunique, and uncertainty in the fracture geometry remains high. This can only be reduced by including geometrical constraints from appropriate field measurements. The authors propose that the global response represents the behavior of the entire pad and is unbiased by the behavior of single specific stages. Pad Layout and Model Development The pad in question is in the Delaware Basin and targets two landing zones in the Wolfcamp A formation. The cored well used to generate the geomodel is approximately 2 miles from this pad. Rock-properties modeling was conducted at centimeter-scale resolution using core measurements and petrophysical measurements. These measurements subsequently were integrated with depth-specific measurements of static elastic properties and ultrasonic velocity measurements conducted at elevated stress conditions, representative of the in-situ effective stress. Combining the P- and S-wave velocity and elastic moduli measurements at in-situ stress conditions with the corresponding centimeter-scale resolution velocity measurements along the core surface allowed later correction of in-situ conditions for static-to-dynamic effects and acquisition of centimeter-resolution profiles of anisotropic velocities and corresponding static anisotropic elastic properties along the length of the core. A detailed interface geologic study also was conducted to identify the presence, type, geologic origin, and density of all interfaces present in the core. The core-based measurements provide a high-confidence, high-resolution vertical representation of the reservoir (at the core location). Using multiple wells with consistent field logs and consistent formations tops in the region, a regional geomodel was created for hydraulic fracture modeling. This model possessed a high-confidence representation of the structural geometry of the dominant formations represented in the model. Using these as geometrical boundaries, rock properties were propagated homogeneously along the lateral extent of the model. The authors aim to maintain the model as simply as possible, particularly when no information exists to do otherwise. Their strategy is to start with a simple model, verify the differences between the model and the field measurements, and make changes when necessary if the differences are unacceptable, but not before.

Abstract:

Through a study of the history of department stores and shopping centers in the Philadelphia metropolitan region between 1920 and 1980, I explore the historical role of retailing in the evolution of the "sprawl" landscape that came to dominate urban form in the United States by the end of the twentieth century. Philadelphia is an important case study for this topic because of its long history of urbanization, during which it developed from a colonial port city to a nine-teenth-century industrial metropolis to a model of twentieth-century deindustrialization. Through all the phases of its growth, Philadelphia remained an important consumer marketplace serving the regional hinterland of the Delaware Valley. I sought to understand the forces that led to the city's twentieth-century decline as the primary site of consumption for the Delaware Valley, when major sites for distributing consumer goods developed in the hinterland itself.

Relatively small, triangular bifaces often considered to be projectile points have a demonstrable use history that includes the Middle Archaic, Late Archaic, Early Woodland, late Middle Woodland, Late Woodland, and Contact periods of regional archaeology. Radiocarbon dates and other data are used to document this extensive history using the Upper Delaware Valley of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York as a case study. Observed trends are evaluated in a broader regional context. The degree to which triangles of different ages can be distinguished from one another is addressed and suggestions for future research are made.

Abstract:

This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper SPE 204166, “Turning Produced Water Into an Asset: A Delaware Basin Case History,” by Dustin Aro, SPE, and Steven Fowler, SPE, Precision Petroleum Solutions, prepared for the 2021 SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition, held virtually 4–6 May. The paper has not been peer reviewed. Well completion operations are affected by freshwater procurement costs starting at approximately $0.75/bbl. Regardless of final fracturing design, water consumption during fracturing operations typically exceeds 500,000 bbl, or $375,000 per well at the time of writing. Significant value exists for recycling produced water by an on-lease pit that can be used for future fracturing operations. The case history outlined in the complete paper explores a multiwell sectional development in the Delaware Basin by a small operator that reduced drilling and completion costs, along with lease operating expenses, by turning undesirable produced water into an asset. Regulatory Considerations Because the Delaware Basin straddles two states, it is important to understand the guidelines and processes of pursuing produced-water recycling operations in Texas as opposed to New Mexico. The operations discussed were executed and managed on the Texas side. While contractor familiarity can be beneficial during the planning stages, the operator also must be well-versed in applicable regulations. It is advisable to consult with legal counsel regarding liability should an unplanned discharge event occur. Lease Development History Before the beginning of initial completions operations, three freshwater wells were drilled on-lease with the intention of use for fracturing operations. The flow rate from the three wells was insufficient to keep up with fracturing operations by an aboveground storage tank (AST). A large-volume fracturing pit was not constructed. The initial completion on Well 1, targeting the Wolfcamp C bench, was executed primarily with fresh water sourced from a third-party pit that was transferred to a nearby AST. During production, Well 1 maintained a high water cut (greater than 90%) and produced a significant amount of water over time. Additional infrastructure would be required to fully exploit the existing freshwater wells as a source for future completions activity. Operator break-even treatment costs have been determined to be the most favorable when using a centralized pipeline water-management program. A pit would act as a centralized gathering point with temporary pipeline infrastructure for water-transfer purposes. An internal economic analysis was undertaken to determine construction costs for a pit that could accommodate 500,000 bbl or 1,000,000 bbl of fresh water. The option of constructing a pit that could handle produced water also was included for comparison.

Abstract:

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania takes the stance that there are no Native Americans within the borders of the state, but as in the rest of the United States there has been over the last three decades a rising consciousness among Pennsylvanians with some native ancestry of their cultural heritage. These people contend that they are descended from intermarriages between colonial Europeans and the indigenous Lenape or Susquehannock peoples, and that their ancestors did not leave Pennsylvania in the 18th century, as history books assert, but rather stayed behind, assimilated, and hid their native background for fear of reprisals. Today these individuals are proud of their background and have formed a number of organizations to promote greater awareness of their existence. In recent years, a number of challenges have arisen to the authenticity of these claims, charging that people calling themselves Native Americans in Pennsylvania are frauds. The authors have partnered with the largest native organization in the state, the Eastern Delaware Nations, on an oral history project to identify and where possible authenticate claims of native ancestry. The paper discusses the many obstacles to be encountered in this effort.

Abstract:

This article proposes an analysis of the linguistic work of the Moravian missionary David Zeisberger (1721–1808), and more particularly of his grammar of the Delaware language (= [Lenni-]Lenape), which was published in 1827 in an English translation by Peter S. Du Ponceau (1760–1844), on the basis of the author’s German manuscript. A life-sketch and a short presentation of Zeisberger’s missionary work are intended to place the Delaware grammar in the context of his scholarly output, thus allowing the reader to adequately appreciate the practical orientation of the work. The analysis of the grammar, which is essentially a description of Delaware verb morphology, focuses on the parts-of-speech model, and on the treatment of the various word classes, with special attention being paid to the verb. The article offers a detailed study of the organization of the verb paradigms, of the division into conjugations and into ‘forms’ (positive, negative, etc.), and of the description of verbal ‘transitions’. The practical and analytical outlook of Zeisberger is confirmed by the lexicographically oriented treatment of the undeclinable parts of speech: the adverb, the preposition, the conjunction and the interjection. The conclusion insists on the fact that Zeisberger’s grammar was an important source for 19th-century linguists interested in language typology and more particularly in the structure of polysynthetic languages.

Abstract:

_ This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper URTeC 3723425, “Delaware Basin Formational Solid Deposit Trends: A Data-Driven Look at Developing Proactive Chemical Treatment Strategies,” by Rachel W. Hudson, SPE, and Kevin J. Spicka, SPE, ChampionX, and Ryan W. Pagel, SPE, Cooper Gray Consulting, et al. The paper has not been peer reviewed. _ This paper highlights a chemical-treatment strategy developed specifically for solids mitigation for a Delaware Basin operator. More than 200 Delaware Basin solid samples from the New Mexico/Texas state line were collected over a 2-year period, spanning seven distinct producing intervals. A statistical approach was taken to determine which formations had the greatest potential for paraffin, carbonate, acid-soluble iron compounds, and sulfate scales. A similar macroscopic approach in other basins may be applied to identify what proactive treatment strategies could be developed based upon the specific challenges of those regions and may similarly improve field performance. Introduction A need exists for optimized cost-effective solids-mitigation and treatment strategies for oil and gas operators across multiple basins. The key is knowing what type of solids have the greatest potential to form before they precipitate and cause issues within a given system. There is a long-standing history of successful chemical and mechanical treatment strategies for solids in the Midland Basin, but less is known about recent unconventional developments in the Delaware Basin, particularly in the Wolfcamp and Bone Springs formations. The Delaware Basin, located within the Permian, is a series of stacked plays. The Avalon sits above the First, Second, and Third Bone Springs, all of which are Leonard-age strata. These formations sit stratigraphically above the Wolfcamp formations. Each producing interval has similar characteristics that directly affect the risk of solid precipitation. During the last decade, the most-common unconventional targets in the Delaware Basin have been the Avalon, Bone Springs, and Wolfcamp formations, which are the focus of the complete paper. Designing cost-effective proactive chemical or mechanical treatment strategies and optimizing those efforts is a challenging dynamic process. Historically, operators take one of two approaches: treat everything while changing chemical type on an as-needed basis or only treating locations where a problem has occurred in the past. Theory and Methods From experiences recorded across the Delaware Basin, it is clear that some formations have more scale or paraffin issues, but this has all been based on individual field experience in localized areas. For example, it is not uncommon to hear that the Second Bone Springs tends to have paraffin issues. If this is true on a larger scale, then widespread untreated solids-deposit data should be able to indicate which solids are the most probable from each formation. If a pattern can be found in the data, then a proactive risk-mitigation and treatment strategy potentially could be defined by formation. If such a data trend exists, it could provide great value and simplify upfront treatment methodology.

Abstract:

“I hope that the matter of the agreement not to discuss the war can be satisfactorily clarified,” Walter M. Horton wrote to the office of the Federal Council of Churches in November of 1941, referring to a meeting of several hundred liberal Protestant leaders the FCC was planning for the following March. “I found some questioning about it” at a recent meeting of peace advocates, some of whom, Horton continued, expressed fear that if they went to the conference they would be obliged “to swear an oath not to say a word about the dominant reality on the horizon.” The distinguished Oberlin theologian worried that the question of “a just and durable peace” that was to be addressed at the “Delaware Conference”—so named on account of its being held on the Delaware, Ohio, campus of Ohio Wesleyan University—might not be effectively engaged because opponents of American entry into World War II were being asked to shut up in the presence of the self-styled “political realists” who were chiefly behind the conclave.
