Tubular String Characterization in High Temperature High Pressure Oil and Gas Wells

Tubular String Characterization in High Temperature High Pressure Oil and Gas Wells

High temperature high oil pressure oil and gas well completion testing have always been a technical challenge and basic theoretical research is one of the key factors needed to ensure a successful completion test. The completion test basic theory includes: a stress analysis of the completion string completion string buckling behavior and temperature and pressure distribution prediction. The completion string is the main bearing and power transmission component for oil and gas well operations and production and it is required to take on a combination of loads which result in completion string deformation. Because of these complex relationships completion string stress analysis has become increasingly more complicated. This book discusses the characters of tubular strings in HTHP (High Temperature - High Pressure) oil and gas wells. These characters include the mechanical behavior of tubular strings and the temperature and pressure variation of tubular strings in different conditions. Mathematical models are established for different conditions and solution existence and uniqueness of some models is discussed providing algorithms corresponding to the different models. Numerical experiments are presented to verify the validity of models and the feasibility of algorithms and the impact of the parameters of models for oil and gas wells is also discussed. This book is written for production and testing engineers to provide them with the tools to deal more effectively with the numerical decisions they have to take and for researchers and technicians in petroleum and gas testing and production engineering. Finally it is also intended to serve as a reference book for mathematicians college teachers and students. | Tubular String Characterization in High Temperature High Pressure Oil and Gas Wells

Demons of Domesticity Women and the English Gas Industry 1889–1939

Demons of Domesticity Women and the English Gas Industry 1889–1939

Demons of Domesticity offers a social history of the English gas industry from the 1880s to the late 1930s with an emphasis on the corporations that served London and the Home Counties. It documents the hitherto unexamined role that women played in the development of the industry by considering two major interlocking themes: the expansion of sales occupations for women in the English gas industry and the parallel growth and diversification of the industry's marketing strategies. During the late-nineteenth century the home became the focal point for a number of debates concerning female employment and gender roles. As an increasing number of labour saving domestic devices came onto the market women found themselves targeted by manufacturing companies and utility suppliers both as consumers and advocates. Foremost among these companies were representatives of the gas industry who actively addressed domestic issues. As the promoters purveyors and consumers of domestic technology Demons of Domesticity suggests that English female employees and consumers were not the hapless dupes of corporate marketing but instead had clear ideas about how domestic technology could and should be used to reconfigure the public and private spaces of work and home. | Demons of Domesticity Women and the English Gas Industry 1889–1939
