Abstract:
<em>Aquiferous sand units of the Imo Formation have been recently reported to contain warm groundwater around Ofumwengbe community, near Benin City, western Niger Delta Basin, Nigeria. Whereas investigations into the sedimentological aspects of sand members in the Imo Formation outcropping in central and eastern Niger Delta have been documented in literature, reports on the sedimentological aspects of sand members within the Imo formation in the western Niger Delta are either nonexistent or publicly unavailable. This dearth of data provides the impetus for this study, which aims to evaluate th

This study traces the origin and migration of the Nsit Clan of the Ibibio ethnic nationality, focusing on its distinct characteristics. The origin and migration of the Western Nsit Clan in the Niger Delta of Nigeria constitute a complex historical narrative shaped by a confluence of cultural, economic, and environmental factors. Rooted in pre-colonial times, this study delves into the clan’s ancestral origins, tracing the intricate patterns of migration that have defined its historical trajectory.

Micropaleontological analysis of sixty (62) ditch cuttings rock samples collected from interval, 7800 feet to 12,002 feet of well AD, located offshore western Niger Delta was carried out for the investigation of their age and paleodepositional environment. Standard methods and techniques of foraminiferal sample processing and analysis were followed to disaggregate the microfauna from the rock matrix. The studied interval is predominantly made up of 80 to 100 % sandstone, minor shale and siltstone with variable textural properties. Foraminifera study revealed well preserved and diverse species

The geometries and kinematics of the fault-related folds interpreted in the study area have been compared to two series of 20 sandbox analogue models of a doubly-vergent wedge to understand the evolution of these structures. The regional interpretation of the 3D seismic dataset revealed the occurrence of four thrust domains separated by dextral tear faults. Each domain is characterised by differing deformational styles.

This thesis explores the manner in which the conflict in the oil-rich Niger Delta in Nigeria is represented in western Anglophone media. Large oil reserves in the Niger Delta have contributed millions of dollars towards the growth of Nigeria's export economy. Despite this, the Niger Delta is the least developed region in the country and is characterised by high rates of inequality. Residents of the Niger Delta have been outraged by the lack of action on the part of the Nigerian government and multinational oil corporations. Their discontent over the inequalities in the region has resulted in t

Two and three-dimensional seismic data are used to investigate some stratigraphic relationships between sedimentation, deformation and fluid flow at the lateral margin of a gravity detachment system. Three themes were studied. In the Niger Delta, a right-lateral strike-slip fault with a displacement of around 7 km occurs across 75 km. It is interpreted as the lateral strike-slip domain, linked to the updip extensional domain and the downdip compression zone of a gravity detachment system.

This study presents a multidisciplinary integrated approach undertaken in predicting the reservoir potential of an untapped deeper Oligocene succession located offshore of the western Niger Delta. The shallower Miocene sands are known to have excellent reservoir quality with porosities exceeding 30 % and permeability in the Darcy range. The study revealed a distinctive geometry in the deep marine depositional systems around mud diapirs. Unlike shallower Miocene reservoirs that are characterised by highly amalgamated channel systems, the Oligocene systems’ depositional pattern shows a transitio

Trans-Saharan trade supplied books and paper to the centres of Islamic learning at Timbuktu and elsewhere.

The danger raised by the terrorist threat is real, existential, and vital to the United States. But the attacks on 9/11 have been broadly misunderstood. In assessing the meaning and significance of the war on terror, Tschirgi raises many issues related to the Middle East and American policy toward that area. For example, he debunks the entire exceptionalist approach to the Arab world (the presumption that Arab societies fail to be fathomed by Western social science). While Tschirgi stresses the need for resolving the war on terrorism favorably, he also suggests two broad policy recommendations

Abstract:
Violence in Nigeria has a tendency to shape-shift - from violent crimes, such as kidnapping and robbery, to various expressions of political violence, such as terrorism and insurgency, as well as police and military brutality. Indeed, because of this, it’s difficult to talk about one type of violence without appreciating not only how it relates to specific contextual conditions but also to other forms of violence, which often overlap each other. Since Nigeria returned to civilian rule in 1999 the term ‘terrorism’ has increasingly been a part of the national discourse on security. On the one ha

However, not all carbon-depleted reservoirs are appropriate for carbon storage. The suitability of the western Niger Delta basin for CCS is assessed in this research.

Abstract Matrix acid stimulation has been successfully applied to remove formation damage in the high-permeability Niger Delta sandstone oil and gas reservoirs since the mid-eighties.

Fluid formulation is however challenging for gas wells due condensate banking and water block development in the near-wellbore area at pressures below dew point pressure.
