Abstract:

This study tried to dive in the archives relating to Oman in the Algerian contemporary press, (1986-2016), and its goal is to look for the Oman presence in the Algerian press, and its role in consolidating of Algeria's Oman relations in the past and present. Based on the above, we have attempted in this study to analyze the subject - after a systematic approach- in the following topics: 1. Introduction to the interesting of Algerian journalists about Oman in modern-day. 2. Algerian press and the contemporary cultural scene in Oman. 3. Algerian press and document the views of the Algerian and Omani on topical issues. Among the findings of the research is the extrapolation of the huge amount of Algerian press material covered by the period of study. That the reasons of Omani-Algerian relationship extend in the depths of history, back to the second century AH, and she has stimulated the efforts of the press pioneers in Algeria and Zanzibar this relation and contributed to its consolidation in this modern age. The study also concluded that the image of the Sultanate of Oman in this press embodies a mosaic of high cultural characteristics. The first is: Oman's adherence to its religious and Arab identity. The second is: his struggle for his freedom and his struggle against colonialism throughout history. The third is: the wrapping of the Omani people around their political leadership and their pride in their scientists. The fourth: the sense of citizenship and co-existence and the entrenchment of the right to difference. The fifth: focus in the renaissance on the humans before the structures, and finally, the image of the Sultanate of Oman in short is: "Is the originality of history, the renaissance of the future, and a worthy example to study and follow-up".

Abstract:

The present article analyzes the historiographic works of three Omani ʿulamāʾ during the twentieth century. It tries to contextualize them in the historical period in which they were written, showing the peculiarity of Omani literature in the context of the Arab world. This is due to various factors: first of all the development of its history constantly characterized by the Ibadhi religion. For example the nahḍah and the reformism have taken on different meanings in Oman, especially in the modernizing era of Sultan Qābūs’s rule. Omani historiography is part and the product of this peculiarity. It narrates the changes and events in Oman and shows how the historiographer is affected by history, culture and religion.

Abstract:

The history of Oman is largely a story of competition, and often conflict, between two very different entities. This duality was even symbolized by the name of the country, “Sultanate of Muscat and Oman,” until 1970. The sultanate was formed from the fusion of the Batina coastal plain and its port cities, symbolically Muscat, and the interior of the country, Oman. During most periods in the recent history of the country, only the coast has been ruled by the sultan. Even before the institution of the sultanate emerged in the 18th century, however, the coast had usually been under separate, often foreign, rule. In the interior, the ideal head of government from very early times was that of an imam, even though the office often remained vacant. At many times during Omani history, of course, one part of the country or the other imposed its control and Oman was temporarily united, but the differences between the two sections of Omani society eventually split the country into two separate states again. Even within the last decade, one of the major problems in Oman's efforts to develop has been “the traditional antithesis between the sultan residing on the coast and the inwardly oriented tribes.”

Abstract:

This study explored the lived experiences of an Omani nursing pioneer and nurse leader whose life and career have evolved amidst a time of rapid modernization in Oman that began in 1970, widely known as the Omani Renaissance. The life history method of qualitative research was used to examine personal and institutional facilitators and barriers to professional development, as well as aspects of the history of the nursing profession and healthcare in Oman during this time. This paper provides insight about the successes and challenges she faced in choosing nursing and along her career path. Inductive thematic analysis revealed three dominant themes: opportunity, visionary, and nurse; with subthemes: national identity, country building, nursing pioneer, leadership, perseverance, resilience, mentors, advocacy, caring, and fulfillment. Conclusions from this study are that opportunities, personal attributes, and motivations shaped decisions about employment and played a role in overcoming barriers to professional development in the workforce.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on reviews of documents and literature relating to Muslim Women’s status generally and in the Omani context specially in sports education. The researcher reviews the literature in two important aspects: first, the Omani Muslim women's identity, its history, as well as the history of physical activities and sports of women in Oman, second the studies about in recent statues of Omani Women in Islam, gender and education. A specific focus will be on Islamic Identity Prospective and reflect that on Feminism and Physical Education in Oman As a result of the study, it can be claimed that the “Islamic Women's Identity” offers alternative approaches in gender relations through which women who choose to adhere to their Islamic identity can exercise their freedom from tradition and rules.

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the history of nursing in the Sultanate of Oman, focusing in particular on the past 50 years. The information cited in the paper is retrieved from the official documents of the Directorate General of Nursing Affairs at the Ministry of Health of Oman, unless otherwise cited. Modern nursing in Oman began in the early 1900s, with the arrival of the American Missionary Association. The key events for the development of nursing in Oman occurred in 1970, when the Ministry of Health was established, and in 1979, when the Directorate of Nursing emerged as an independent department within the Ministry office. It is hoped that this article will be used by Omani and other researchers to further explore the evolution of nursing as a profession in Oman.

Abstract:

The nineteenth-century rise of Zanzibar under the ruling Albusaidi Dynasty of Oman owed its origins primarily to the solid foundations of commercial activity laid down in Muscat in the preceding century. In the subsequent development of the Omani economy, in Omani territories in both Arabia and Africa where the dictates of the Omani political/tribal system did not allow for any centralization of authority, local communities and tribal groups resisted the domination of the Albusaidi rulers as they strove to bring under their own control the benefits of burgeoning trade.The opposition of the major Omani groups in East Africa, the Mazāri‘a of Mombasa and the Banū Nabhān of Pate, to the Albusaidis and the eventual success of the Omani rulers in dismantling and neutralizing this opposition are fairly well documented. However, the sustained challenge of Hilāl b. Sa‘īd to the reign of his father Sa‘īd b. Sulṭān, the Albusaidi ruler of Oman and Zanzibar and their dependencies from 1806 to 1856, has hitherto been neglected, despite the fact that Hilāl's resistance in East Africa was the greatest internal threat to Sa‘īd after that posed by the Mazāri'a and had dire consequences for the subsequent course of Oman's history. The conflict between father and son set in train a course of events that led inexorably to the 1861 British-sponsored dismemberment of Oman into two Sultanates, one in Arabia and the other in East Africa.

Abstract:

Despite its richness, the research corpus published about Islamic architecture presents some discontinuities in the knowledge of the architecture in the lands ruled by Muslims. Similarly, the dynamics of influence that might have operated between the "monumental" architecture in these lands and their popular architectures are insufficiently addressed. Moreover, the material culture related to the Islamic civilization is almost exclusively studied as a product that has stopped evolving. The architecture produced during Al-Ya'ariba (Al- Ya'rubi) Imamate (1624-1749) is an instance of these understudied topics in the history of Islamic architecture. This research argues that Al-Ya'rubi Imamate is not only an important chapter in the history of Oman, the Arabian Peninsula, Indian Ocean, and Eastern Africa, but also the architecture of this period has created the identity of Omani architecture as we know it today. Nonetheless, there is no architectural production in this era both in the major references and scientific publications of Islamic architecture in the 17th and 18th centuries. Through field research, comparative analysis, and literature review of the history of Omani architecture, especially in the 17th -18th centuries, this research examines the military architecture in Oman during Al-Ya'ariba Imamate including its reference, and its influence on other architectures. It is a contribution to the scientific endeavour to address this specific architectural typology from the perspective of its mechanism of (trans) formation and its continuity of forms until the contemporary architecture of Oman.

ABSTRACT: Objectives: As a large proportion of patients are seen in primary healthcare (PHC) centres, it is important to explore patients’ perceptions of communication and clinical skills of PHC physicians. In Oman, PHC is provided by both trained family physicians (FPs) and general practitioners (GPs). Methods: This crosssectional study was conducted at 12 PHC centres in Muscat Governorate, Oman between November 2014 and August 2015. Adult Omani patients’ perceptions of Omani and other Arabic-speaking doctors were examined using an Arabic translation of a validated self-administered questionnaire. Results: A total of 626 patients completed the questionnaire (response rate: 100%). The patients’ responses were significantly more positive towards FPs compared to GPs on whether the doctor provided reassurance (P = 0.03), took a complete medical history (P = 0.03) and gave the patient the opportunity of a follow-up with the same doctor (P = 0.01). Conclusion: Certain skills in communication and clinical aspects of FPs were favourably viewed by patients compared to GPs.Keywords: Patient Satisfaction; Physicians, Primary Health Care; Communication; Clinical Competence; Quality of Health Care; Oman.

Abstract:

This thesis analyses the external and internal influences on the process of state formation in Oman since 1920 and places this process in comparative perspective with the other states of the Gulf Cooperation Council. It considers the extent to which the concepts of informal empire and collaboration are useful in analysing the relationship between Oman, Britain and the United States. The theoretical framework is the historical materialist paradigm of International Relations. State formation in Oman since 1920 is examined in a historical narrative structured by three themes: (1) the international context of Western involvement, (2) the development of Western strategic interests in Oman and (3) their economic, social and political impact on Oman. The incorporation of the Arabian littoral into the security sphere of the British empire in India separated the Imamate in the mountainous interior of Oman from the British-backed Sultans in Muscat. This culminated in the Treaty of Sib in 1920 following which the government of the Sultanate was restructured by British officials. The discovery of oil in Bahrain in 1932 marked a new phase in the incorporation of the Arabian peninsula into the capitalist world-system. In south-east Arabia this led to the occupation of the interior in 1955 by the British-supported forces of Sa'id bin Taimur. The coup of 1970 in which Qabus became Sultan allowed the development of a pro-Western rentier state and the defeat of the rebels in Dhofar. British imperial withdrawal from the region was completed with the relinquishment of its bases in the Sultanate of Oman in 1977. The development of a strategic relationship between Oman and the United States in the 1980s enhanced American military deployment during the Kuwait crisis of 1990-1991. In the aftermath of this conflict Oman faces the challenge of political development in an environment of diminishing oil reserves.

Abstract:

Mountain building is the result of large compressional forces in the Earth’s crust where two tectonic plates collide. This is why mountains only form at plate boundaries, of which the Al Hajar Mountains in Oman and the United Arab Emirates is thought to be an example of. These mountains have formed near the Arabian–Eurasian convergent plate boundary where continental collision began by 30 Ma at the earliest. However, the time at which the Al Hajar Mountains developed is less well constrained. Therefore, the timing of both the growth of the mountains, and the Arabian–Eurasian collision, needs to be understood first to be able to identify a correlation. Following this a causal link can be determined. Here we show, using apatite fission track and apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He dating, as well as stratigraphic constraints, that the Al Hajar Mountains were uplifted from 45 Ma to 15 Ma. We found that the mountains developed 33 Myr to 10 Myr earlier than the Arabian–Eurasian plate collision. Furthermore, the plate collision is ongoing, but the Al Hajar Mountains are tectonically quiescent. Our results indicate that the uplift of the Al Hajar Mountains cannot be correlated in time to the Arabian–Eurasian collision. Therefore the Al Hajar Mountains are not the result of this converging plate boundary.

Abstract:

This dissertdtion examines British Foreign Policy toward the Sultanate of Muscat and Oman, 1954-1959. The theoretical framework is clientelism. The patron-client relationship develops over a lengthy period. The Anglo-Omani relationship was uninterrupted from the 1600s through the subject period. and British efforts to later in Kuwait achieve included their the interests in establishment India and maintenance of the Al Bu Said family as Oman's hereditary monarchs. Britain signed anti-slave trade treaties with Oman in the nineteenth century to eliminate it as a regional economic threat; and separated the wealthy Zanzibar dominions from the control of Muscat's leadership. This "divide-and-rule" policy resulted in both Oman and Zanzibar becoming dependent on Britain. The 1913-1920 disturbance between the Sultan and shaikhs from the country's interior led to the British mediated Agreement of ai-Sib. The record shows that the events were different than what had been portrayed in various memoirs. Said ibn Taimur. the British educated Sultan, wanted political reunification of the interior with the coastal plains under his leadership. This was accomplished by the Sultan's forces with minimal opposition when the Imam died in 1954. The rebel leadership returned in 1956 with Saudi Arabian trained and armed troops. The rebels were defeated but the Sultan needed British military support. Britain's disproportionate response to the limited and localized opposition necessitated the rapid cover-up of damage to the interior's vii lages. The patron-client relationship strained almost to the breaking point. The British wanted to "cover-up" the damage they had wrought; the Sultan wanted to enhance his military capacity and to withdraw from the protective but overbearing relationship with Great Britain. The official records for the period are used extensively. For the first time, an academic work that discusses the events of the last half of the 1950's does not rely on personal interviews.

Abstract:

Informal relations between American merchant traders and the Sultanate of Oman in the port of Zanzibar began with the landing of the first American merchants about 1828. At the same approximate time, Sultan Said bin Sultan moved his official residence from Muscat, Oman, to Zanzibar, underlining the importance of Zanzibar to the administration of his territories on the East African coast. Relations were formalized by the Treaty of 1833 between the United States and Oman, and the U.S. established a consular mission in Zanzibar in 1837 and in Muscat in 1838. The growth of the Omani Empire under Sultan Said expanded and prospered during the period examined in the present research (1828-1856). Oman's growth and prosperity, resulting primarily from its possession of Zanzibar and ports on the East African coast, roughly parallels the expansion and prosperity of the Zanzibar trade to American merchant traders. After Said's death, the Omani Empire was divided in a bitter succession battle (abetted by the British, who enjoyed military dominance in the region), and this point marked the beginning of the decline of the Oman as a regional economic and political power. The present study surveys these two parallel developments over the critical 28-year reign of Sultan Said. The survey finds that, as with much economic development in the "third world" in the nineteenth century, Oman's enormous growth and prosperity during this period was directly linked to the growth and prosperity of commercial interests of a "developed" Western nation (in Oman's case, the United States). The study found that political developments between the two countries followed, and were informed and directed by, commercial developments. America's first three consuls to the Sultanate of Oman in Zanzibar were New England merchant traders more focused on their own commercial interests than on political concerns. That both parties (American traders and the Omani government) ultimately prospered is testimony to the complementary nature of their respective economic goals and foreign policy objectives.

Abstract:

Five outcrop sections (Wadi Mi'aidin, Wadi Bani Kharus, Jebel Madar, Jebel Madamar and Jebel Salak), exposing Thamama and Wasia Group sediments were sedimentologically logged and sampled. Thin sections of each of the Thamama Group samples were prepared for micropalaeontological and microfacies analysis. The foraminifera, calcareous algae and calpionellids in each sample were recorded in order to provide a means of biostratigraphic subdivision, and together with microfacies analysis and sedimentological observations made in the field, provide a means of elucidating the depositional environments of the Thamama Group in the study area. Correlation between outcrop sections has been attempted using a biozonation scheme developed in the course of this project, and also by graphic correlation techniques. The taxonomy of 39 genera including 56 species of key foraminifera, calcareous algae and calpionellids is reviewed in detail. A complete revision of Cretaceous Middle Eastern lithostratigraphic nomenclature is required. Some recommendations for such a revision are proposed. Within the Thamama Group, 13 biozones/subzones are recognised using the extinction and inception events for key taxa. Both biozonal correlation and graphic correlation demonstrate that most Thamama Group formations are diachronous and may also be condensed at some localities. Biostratigraphic studies demonstrate that in the Central Oman Mountains region the Thamama Group formations are of the following ages: The Rayda Formation is of Early Berriasian age. It possibly extends into the earliest Valanginian at some localities (eg. Wadi Bani Kharus). The Salil Formation is of Berriasian - Valanginian age, possibly Hauterivian in age in its upper part at some localities. The Habshan Formation is of Hauterivian age everywhere, with possible extension into the Late Valanginian in its IOWCT part The Lekhwair Formation is essentially of Hauterivian - Barremian age (often largely Hauterivian). The Kharaib Formation is of typically Late Barremian - Early Aptian age, whilst the Shuaiba Formation is of Early Aptian age. Thamama Group deposition took place on an initially downwarped carbonate ramp, prograding towards the Tethyan Ocean (towards the north and east). Offshore palaeowinds precluded the development of reefs, but an oolitic shoal was located at the margin of the ramp, at least during Hauterivian times.

Abstract:

Children’s theatre exists along with other theatrical forms in the cultural life of the Sultanate of Oman. Despite the fact that Omani Children’s Theatre started its life at the beginning of the 1970s, many challenges and obstacles continue to face its ongoing development. A significant landmark in this development was the first Omani Children's Theatre Festival which took place in 2007, thirty-five years after the first Omani children’s play was produced in 1972. This festival represents a new era in the history of Omani theatre in general and the history of children’s theatre in particular. This study investigates how Children’s Theatre in the Sultanate of Oman can become a viable and valued form of art for the future. It outlines the historical background and the present situation of Omani children’s theatre and, through discussions with interviewees, defines the obstacles it presently faces and suggests ways to overcome them. The study provides a clear vision for a strong children’s theatre culture in Oman and outlines recommendations for achieving this vision. Presently, there is little written documentation about children’s theatre in Oman. This study provides the first comprehensive historical overview.

Abstract:

Abstract This chapter provides a checklist for the family Eulophidae. It provides information on species diversity, host records, distribution records by province in Iran, as well as world distribution. Comparison of the eulophid fauna of Iran with adjacent countries indicates that the faunas of Russia (666 species) and Turkey (246 species) are more diverse than Iran (236 species), followed by Turkmenistan (70 species), Kazakhstan (57 species), Pakistan (44 species), Azerbaijan (34 species), United Arab Emirates (31 species), Armenia (23 species), Iraq (10 species), Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia (both with eight species) and Oman (six species); no species have so far been reported from Bahrain, Kuwait or Qatar. The much larger number of eulophid species reported from Russia likely correlates with not only its large land area but also its history of taxonomic research on Eulophidae in the country. Russia shares 147 known species with Iran, followed by Turkey (133 species), Azerbaijan (22 species), Turkmenistan (21 species), Armenia and Pakistan (both with 20 species), United Arab Emirates (13 species), Iraq (10 species), Afghanistan (seven species), Saudi Arabia (four species) and Oman (two species).

Abstract:

Abstract Hydraulic fracturing is a challenge when the reservoir is adjacent to a water zone as it will extremely limit hydrocarbon production. The challenge becomes tougher when there is no stress barrier below the reservoir to contain the fracture. Several technologies have been applied by the oil and gas industry such as reducing injecting rate, using low viscosity, employing dual viscosity/density fracturing fluids, perforation location, and using proppant settling with dual fracturing treatment. The focus of this paper is to achieve two objectives; 1) place a long hydraulic fracture in the pay zone, and 2) avoid penetrating nearby water zone. This paper presents the proppant settling concept with essential augmentation that makes it a novel technology. The paper provides the oil and gas industry with a successful case history on fracturing low permeability reservoirs situated close to a water zone.

Abstract:

Abstract The operator in West Africa embarked upon the "N" field offshore development in 2016 with 13 multi-stage horizontal wells being fracture-stimulated in Phase-I, with further wells being planned in next development phases. Due to the complex nature of the reservoir, which is a multilayered sandstone characterized by high heterogeneity and low permeability, wellbore connections are often located in structurally altered areas with high presence of faults. The unpredictable local re-orientation of the stresses has resulted in complications for the fracturing operations with multiple fractures being induced. This paper presents the challenges and solutions implemented for delivering more consistent fracturing execution and well productivity improvements. The horizontal wells in the "N" field were hydraulically fractured using the "plug-and-perf" method with up to four fractured intervals. The quality of the near-wellbore connection and the observations of complex near-wellbore fracture geometries have hindered far-field proppant distribution and limited maximum proppant concentration inside the fracture. When fracturing this tight formation, controlling the opening of the pressure-dependent multiple fractures was identified as a critical issue. An engineering breakdown process and adapted frac strategy was implemented to minimize the multiple fractures generated at the formation. For the early hydraulic fracture treatments performed, conservative treatment designs were applied in order to avoid premature screenout with the consequence of increasing operative time. Implemented solutions have shown to improve the near-wellbore connections and increase well productivity. The successful outcomes are attributed to the implementation of improved perforating strategies, the optimization of fracturing fluid performance, an engineered fracturing breakdown process, and the development of a frac decision tree for improved decision making. The hydraulic frac strategy has been tailored well-by-well depending on the reservoir conditions (e.g. faults, permeability thickness, contacts), and on the operational conditions interpreted from the diagnostic injection tests (e.g. near wellbore tortuosity, net pressure). The holistic implementation of these new concepts for hydraulic fracturing and field development have delivered positive production results beyond initial expectations. For the horizontal wells intersecting the deep low permeability "D" reservoir, the risk of multiple fractures and influence of tortuosity have been diminished through corrective techniques and unique solutions applied for each fracturing stage.

Abstract:

Abstract The paper presents an integrated reservoir modeling (IRM) of a giant complex fractured carbonate reservoir to get insights about the reservoir's displacement process. Historically the field has undergone many recovery mechanisms, nowadays two still remains: Gas-Oil Gravity Drainage (GOGD) and waterflood. A major change in understanding the vertical connectivity of the different reservoir units henders the future development options. A decision-based approach was followed to select an economically feasible field development option. Selection of economically feasible development option need; field performance review, full frame structure and geological model is built, ideal conceptual sector models sliced from the full frame structural model and numerical dynamic simulation is carried out with different development options (water injection (WI), gas oil gravity drainage (GOGD) and mixture of WI and GOGD). Understanding the fluid flow behavior in fractured carbonate reservoirs is complex and challenging. The complexity directly linked to the understanding of the fracture hierarchy and connectivity. The field development plan at the time of analyzing the field data was water injection with very good recovery factor that cannot be explained by the injected water pore volume. Applying the integrated reservoir modeling (IRM) procedures, full filed performance review is carried out, update of subsurface models with different fracture model realizations and run numerical dynamic simulations over idealized conceptual models with different development options. Full filed history match is carried out on the selected development option. Front Loading and data analysis is key for successful modeling strategy, the main uncertainty is the fracture distribution, better understanding of the reservoir units cross flow, understand the effect of different development options on recovery factor in significantly short time and create reasonable scenarios of subsurface. Well performance showed some effects of water injection. Gas oil gravity is the dominant recovery process. Gas recirculation of shallow wells have negative effects on the GOGD process. Adding water injectors with continuous gas injection has negative effects on the recovery factor. The fracture hierarchy is key to understand the subsurface. All the studied reservoir units are in communication via fracture corridors. The main recovery mechanism is gas oil gravity drainage (GOGD). WI may have local effects but as development concept it will not add value. Well location relative to fracture corridors is critical to achieve better history match. Water injection has negative effect on field recovery and operationally (WRFM). Filed operation optimization (optimize gas injection) can result in maintain the same rate with lower CPEX and OPEX (Capital spending efficiency). This paper presents significant importance understanding the integration and clear vision of the modeling strategy that saves effort and money.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper presents an innovative and practical workflow framework implemented in an Oman southern asset. The asset consists of three isolated accumulations or fields or structures that differ in rock and fluid properties. Each structure has multiple stacked members of Gharif and Alkhlata formations. Oil production started in 1986, with more than 60 commingling wells. The accumulations are not only structurally and stratigraphically complicated but also dynamically complex with numerous input uncertainties. It was impossible to assist the history matching process using a modern optimization-based technique due to the structural complexities of the reservoirs and magnitudes of the uncertain parameters. A structured history-matching approach, Stratigraphic Method (SM), was adopted and guided by suitable subsurface physics by adjusting multi-uncertain parameters simultaneously within the uncertainty envelope to mimic the model response. An essential step in this method is the preliminary analysis, which involved integrating various geological and engineering data to understand the reservoir behavior and the physics controlling the reservoir dynamics. The first step in history-matching these models was to adjust the critical water saturation to correct the numerical water production by honoring the capillary-gravity equilibrium and reservoir fluid flow dynamics. The significance of adjusting the critical water saturation before modifying other parameters and the causes of this numerical water production is discussed. Subsequently, the other major uncertain parameters were identified and modified, while a localized adjustment was avoided except in two wells. This local change was guided by a streamlined technique to ensure minimal model modification and retain geological realism. Overall, acceptable model calibration results were achieved. The history-matching framework's novelty is how the numerical water production was controlled above the transition zone and how the reservoir dynamics were understood from the limited data.

Abstract:

Abstract Injection of cold fluid is injected into hot reservoirs and rocks undergo contraction due to temperature difference. This contrast in temperatures causes the in-situ stress to reduce considerably. When the Minimum Horizontal Stress (σhmin) falls below the Bottomhole Pressure (BHP) due to temperature changes, fractures may initiate and/or propagate. Fractures resulted from thermal processes is referred as Thermally Induced Fractures (TIFs). TIFs can cause highly non-uniform distribution of the injected water flow in the wellbores, reduction in the sweep efficiency, and early water breakthrough in the nearby production wells. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of Inflow Control Device (ICD) to mitigate these fractures in water injection wells. A real field history matched sector model with evidence of TIF occurrence is utilized in this paper using a 3D reservoir thermal simulator coupled with a 2D TIF model and a geomechanical model. The impact of different completions in injection well with TIF modelling under different scenarios is investigated. The added value of ICD was quantified and proved to be effective in controlling TIF initiation and propagation as well as in improving the wellbore flow performance. The selected ICD size should be neither too big (no control) nor too small (over-restriction of injection rate). TIFs mitigation method proposed in this paper is practical, efficient, and strongly contribute to the research aimed at improving waterflood performance in oil fields. Recommendations and guidelines can be utilized in waterflooding operations during modelling, designing, and planning stages.

Abstract:

This report documents the geomorphic assessment component of the Old River, Mississippi River, Atchafalaya River, and Red River System Technical Assessment. The overall objectives of the geomorphic assessment are to utilize all available data to document the historic trends in hydrology, sedimentation, and channel geometry for the rivers in the vicinity of the Old River Control Complex and to summarize the changes observed at locations where repetitive datasets exist and at key reaches that are determined during the study. The geomorphic assessment tasks include data compilation, geometric data analysis, gage and discharge analysis, dredge record analysis, sediment data analysis, development of an events timeline, and integration of results. Geomorphic reaches were developed, and the morphological trends during different time periods were identified. The geomorphic assessment highlighted the importance of considering spatial and temporal variability when assessing morphological trends.
