The critical importance of site characterization in remediation design

Design is a traditional task common to all engineering fields although most engineers do not have to deal with the heterogeneous properties of materials as is the case in site remediation, mining, geotechnical engineering, etc. A structural engineer can specify properties of steel or reinforced concrete and an electronics engineer can specify the physical properties of transistors, capacitors, ...

DNO International ASA - DNO is today reporting final results from the testing of Yaalen-3, in the Republic of Yemen.

DNO International ASA ("DNO" or "the Company")DNO is today reporting final results from the testing of Yaalen-3, in the Republic of Yemen. The second test in Yaalen-3 flowed 2,650 barrels of oil per day (bopd). As the first test flowed 1.400 bopd, the aggregated flow rate from the two tests is 4,050 bopd. The test rate from both tests intervals were restricted by the capacity of the down hole ...

DOE-Sponsored Project Shows Huge Potential for Carbon Storage in Wyoming

The Wyoming Rock Springs Uplift could potentially store 14 to 17 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), according to results from a Department of Energy-sponsored study. This is equal to 250 to 300 years’ worth of CO2 emissions produced by the Wyoming’s coal-fired power plants and other large regional anthropogenic CO2 sources at current emission levels. The project team ...
