Abstract:
The objective of the invention is to smoothly merge the influx flow streams with the wellbore flow stream so as to reduce the pressure drop along the perforated section of the wellbore liner. There is disclosed a completion liner for a well for the production of hydrocarbons is provided with angled ports through the sidewall which reduce pressure drop along the length of the liner. There is also disclosed short imperforate completion tubing for a well for the production of hydrocarbons is concentrically mounted alongside substantially only the perforated section of the production tubing to cause production fluids to initially flow toward the wellhead along an annulus defined between completion tubing and the production tubing prior to exiting the annulus and commingling a with fluids produced from further down hole. There is further disclosed a completion casing for a well for the production of hydrocarbons which is provided with angled perforations through the casing sidewall which reduce flow resistance along the length of the casing.
Abstract:
Formed metal-containing briquettes of high green strength, high shatter and good compressive strength in the cured state from a composition comprising a metal-containing waste, an aqueous solution comprising ammonium polyphosphate and magnesia. The product can be easily formed by mixing all components at room temperature, introducing the same into a mold and thereafter permitting the same to set. Setting is very rapid, and the product can be handled within minutes after molding. The product finds particular use as a replacement in whole or in part for metal sources in a steel-making process; it has the excellent advantages that the metal content thereof is extremely high and it introduces no harmful impurities into steel during steel making.
Abstract:
Formed briquettes of high green strength, high shatter and good compressive strength in the cured state from a composition comprising a metal- and/or carbon-containing waste, one or more reactible isocyanate group containing materials and one or more hydroxyl group containing materials and magnesia. The product can be easily formed by mixing all components at room temperature, introducing the same into a mold, applying pressure and thereafter permitting the same to set. Setting is rapid, and the product can be handled within minutes after molding. The product finds particular use as a replacement in whole or in part for metal and/or carbon sources in steel-making; it has the excellent advantages that the metal and/or carbon content thereof is extremely high and it introduces no harmful impurities into, e.g., steel during steel making.
Abstract:
Formed fuel briquettes of high green strength, high shatter and good compressive strength in the cured state from a composition comprising coke breeze, an aqueous solution comprising ammonium polyphosphate and magnesia. The product can be easily formed by mixing all components at room temperature, introducing the same into a mold and thereafter permitting the same to set. Setting is very rapid, and the product can be handled within minutes after molding.The product finds particular use as a replacement in whole or in part for coke in a steel-making process; it has the excellent advantages that the carbon content thereof is extremely high, which can approximate that of high-grade coke, and introduces no harmful impurities into steel during steel making.
