      Differential-pressure pipe sticking is one of the main problems that occurs during drilling operations, leading to an increase in the non-productive time (NPT). To address this problem, the industry uses a range of spotting fluids to enable the recovery of a differentially stuck pipe effectively. Thus, any delay in solving this problem can turn into a difficult rescue operation that can eventually lead to the abandonment of the well in extreme conditions. Therefore, it is crucial to choose the appropriate spotting fluid that is suitable for the specific mud composition, as using an unsuitable spotting fluid may result in dangerous conditions. Additionally, other factors can further complicate the process of freeing a stuck pip

Globally, oil production has steadily increased which causes a rise in the coproduction of oil and water emulsions. These emulsions pose significant challenges in transportation and the oil refinery industry, causing high-pressure drops and corrosion problems due to chlorides in the water. Despite advancements in renewable energy, crude oil remains a primary energy source. The crude oil industry faces numerous challenges, including cost emulsion issues. This study developed a corn oil bio-demulsifier (MFK). A unique demulsifier was tested using FTIR, GC-MS, and TGA.

The Material Balance Equation is a crucial tool utilized in reservoir studies to evaluate fluids and rock properties at static pressures. The Flowing and Dynamic Material Balance methods offer a significant advantage by avoiding the requirement to shut down wells, as they use flowing pressure instead of static pressure under constant or variable flow rates. The concept of "Dynamic Material Balance" involves converting the bottom hole flowing pressure at any point at any given time to the average reservoir pressure at that point. This allows for the use of classical material balance calculations and the development of classical material balance plots. In this study, the Dynamic Material Balance and Agrawal Type Curve techniques were used

   The mechanical characteristics of rocks such as elasticity (Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, and unconfined compressive strength) play an essential in sand production analysis, well design, and borehole stability assessment. In this study, the mechanical characteristics of rocks were indirectly estimated using gamma ray, density, and acoustic (compressional and shear) log data from well RU-X in the Rumaila oil field, specifically for the Zubair Formation. These estimated properties were compared to direct measurements obtained from triaxial and uniaxial mechanical tests conducted on well RU-X. The results showed a significant similarity between the indirect estimates and the direct measurements, indicating their reliability for san

Garbage is the waste of neglected human beings. The despised thing turns into art. We accept its existence as one of the new aesthetics that have been extended in the joints of modern life. Works of debris and waste find their place in exhibitions, museums and urban spaces of cities. It is one of the major tremors in the transformation of aesthetic taste on the level of art history.In light of these ideas, we are faced with the problem of interpreting the phenomenon and its identity, because the remnants of garbage for each people have historical characteristics and a kind of anthropology that refers to the culture of human use of the materials and their waste and the identity of their belonging. In Iraq, the garbage has its ecological a

   The hydraulic fracturing technique is a widely used technique worldwide, making it interesting to study. This technique was applied for the first time in Iraq on a tight carbonate reservoir in the Halfaya oil field. In this field, the oil production rates, and flowing pressure were low during production periods reflecting a problem for the development plan designed to increase production using a hydraulic fracture technique.  Initially, the hydraulic fracture well showed high oil-producing rates, but then, quickly experienced a high decline failing to keep a stable production rate. To address this problem, it is important to describe and analyze the behavior of pilot hydraulic fracturing wells during their production period, study

   Shear wave is a crucial parameter for assessing the wellbore stability, the stress response, and rock deformation. It is essential for constructing the mechanical earth model (MEM) for many applications related to reservoir geomechanics including wellbore stability, sand production, hydraulic fracturing, and fault reactivation. However, shear sonic data is often omitted during the well-logging measurements for cost and saving purposes. To overcome this challenge, recent research has been focused on determining shear wave velocity through the use of core plugs, empirical correlations, artificial intelligence techniques, and multiple regression to quantify and evaluate the mechanical properties of subsurface formations without perform
