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

Abstract:

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 hydrocarbon movability potential of the field was delineated by looking at the various hydrocarbon movability factors such as the flushed zone, movable oil saturation, residual oil saturation and hydrocarbon movability index.

AbstractThe battle over who controls Warri has been underway for several generations. The most violent eruption of this struggle occurred between 1997 and 1999.

Contrary to the recent popular and scholarly understanding of the Warri crisis as an outcome of crude oil politics, I argue that British colonial state intervention set in motion a deadly, ethnicized struggle over political and material resources, which has only been exacerba

Abstract:

Background: Gynecological malignancies are easily a paramount cause of morbidity and mortality in women in most sub-Saharan countries. We aim to determine the prevalence and highlight the spectrum of female genital malignancies in Benin City, Mid-Western Nigeria, an oil producing region.Methods: Data of all women with histologically diagnosed genital cancers within a five-year period at University of Benin Teaching Hospital, Benin City, was reviewed, analysed and presented.Results: A total of 119 females had histologically confirmed genital tract malignancies during the study period.Cervical c

Abstract:

Efficient hydrocarbon exploration and resource optimization are vital for sustainable oil reservoir development. This necessitates a profound grasp of source rocks and trapping systems, typically gleaned from subsurface seismic studies followed by drilling for resource extraction. Additionally, interpreting stratigraphic data is critical for identifying productive reservoirs, distinguishing low-yield from high-yield sands, and reducing exploration risks and costs. Our study aims to enhance subsurface structure and stratigraphic understanding, specifically identifying potential hydrocarbon rese

Abstract:

The area of study is a portion of the Greater Ughelli Depobelt in Niger Delta Basin. The main aim of the paper is to interpret the sequence stratigraphy of FX-1 and FX-2 wells by employing data sets from biostratigraphic data and well logs. Standard laboratory techniques were used for data treatment while computer software such as Petrel and StrataBugs were used for data simulation, processing, integration and interpretation. Sedimentology, interpreted gamma ray and resistivity well logs integrated with biostratigraphic data were utilized to define the candidate maximum flooding surfaces and s

Abstract:

Background: Adult nephrotic syndrome is a common cause of chronic kidney disease globally and in Sub-Saharan Africa. In Nigeria there are only few studies on adult nephrotic syndrome, mostly from the south-western Nigeria and rarely from the Niger delta sub-region of Nigeria. This study aims at contributing to the National data on adult nephrotic syndrome, from the perspective of the Niger delta sub-region.Methods: Retrospective analysis of five-year clinical data (January 2007 to December 2011) of adult nephrotic syndrome patients in the University of Port Harcourt teaching hospital was condu
