11 killed as bus falls into gorge
JAMMU: Governor NN Vohra and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah today expressed grief over the loss of lives in the road accident at Thathri in Doda district. They conveyed their sympathies to the bereaved
families. Expressing concern over the growing number of road accidents, particularly in the hilly areas like Doda, Vohra observed that it was the bounden duty of all agencies concerned with traffic management to check overloading, rash driving, validity of driving licenses, fitness of the drivers and condition of the
vehicles. Omar also expressed profound grief and sorrow over the loss of human lives. He asked the administration to provide best possible medical care to the injured.
Udhampur, January 17 According to the police, the minibus bearing number 9703-JK02B was on its way to Gandoh from Thathri when the driver lost control over it while negotiating a turn at Jabbha, about 12 km east of Thathri, and the bus fell into the gorge killing nine persons on
the spot. Before the police reached the accident site, locals had started rescue operations. The injured were shifted to the Thathri hospital, where two of them succumbed to their injuries. The Thathri hospital lacks basic facilities like ambulance and the injured were airlifted to Jammu for proper treatment. The non-availability of adequate facilities provoked protests as people shouted slogans against the administration for its failure to create facilities in this strategic hospital. Meanwhile, Deputy Chief Minister Tara Chand and Minister for Forests Mian Altaf air-dashed to Thathri to inquire about the treatment being provided to the injured. As locals were protesting against the lack of facilities at the hospital, the visiting ministers assured them to solve the problems as early as possible. Mian Altaf, while talking to The Tribune, admitted that the Thathri hospital, located on the Batote-Kishtwar national highway, lacked basic facilities. We have directed the authorities concerned to equip the hospital with advanced equipment within a week, the minister said, adding that, the divisional commissioner of Jammu has been directed to look into the grievances of the people. The minister further admitted that shortage of vehicles was the main reason behind overloading of existing vehicles in this mountainous belt. |
Give us a chance, Omar to India Inc.
Jammu, January 17 As per a press note issued here, Omar was speaking after presenting Business Indias Businessman of the Year 2008 Award to PRS Oberoi, chairman of the Oberoi Group, at a glittering function in Mumbai last evening. He was the chief guest at the event attended by over 1,200 captains of business and industry. Business is about profitability and I know that for the past 20 years no good news has come out of Jammu and Kashmir. But I assure you that 2009 will be the year that the good news will start emerging. I know that right now even if I have an economic summit and invite participation from the industry, I will not offer you a level playing field vis-à-vis other states. But I want to make an appeal that you visit and see for yourselves what we have to offer, Omar said in his impassioned speech. Omar said he wanted to create conditions that the Corporate India would earn profits in the state. Help me build skill sets for my people that will make you want to employ them in your organisations across the country and in new facilities that I hope you will soon set up in the state, he said, adding that I will then ensure that while peace returns, the youth are trained and employable, ready for you when you decide to come and set bases. Omar assured the India Inc that every support required to make their entry into the state would be made easy and comfortable as far as possible. Dovetailing industry with tourism, the Chief Minister said the state offered world-class golfing facilities. He added that though he did not play golf, the state had a spectacular golf course in Srinagar and invited the corporate houses to come to the state. Former Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah, state Minister for Industries and Commerce SS Slathia, Chief Ministers political advisor Devender Singh Rana and principal secretary to Omar Khurshid Ahmad Ganai were also present. |
RS elections next month
Jammu, January 17 The Election Commission has announced February 13 as the date for the elections to four Rajya Sabha seats from the state. Though these seats had fallen vacant on November 26 last year, they could not be filled due to the non-existence of the Assembly in the state. The four Rajya Sabha members were NC president Farooq Abdullah, Union Minister for Water Resources and state Congress chief Prof Saif-ud-Din Soz, former Speaker Chaudhary Mohammad Aslam of the Congress and Pratap Singh Bajwa of the PDP. Being a part of the ruling alliance, the Congress and the NC are certain to get one Rajya Sabha seat each while the PDP too with 21 MLAs would most likely bag one seat. Riding high on its success in the Assembly poll, the BJP too doesnt want to let this opportunity go unchallenged though it faces an uphill task to garner support of the Panthers Party (3 MLAs) and Independents to secure a berth in the Rajya Sabha. Come February-March and the political parties will vie for vacant seats in the State Legislative Council. In the 36-member House, around 20 seats will be vacant within a next couple of months. Three seats have fallen vacant in the recent past following the retirement of Congress MLC Farida Mir and Independent MLC Sofi Ghulam Mohammad, and due to demise of Bilal Lodhi. Four more MLCs will tender their resignations following their election to the Assembly. These include Sakina Itoo of the NC, Nizamuddin Bhat, Basharat Bukhari and Rafi Ahmad Mir (all PDP). Apart from these, 12 other members will complete their term within next two months. Interestingly, many Congress heavyweights, both from Jammu and Kashmir regions, are eying the vacant slots in the council after tasting defeat in the Assembly elections. Following the elections to the Upper House of the state as well as the country, it will be the time for the big electoral battle in the form of the Lok Sabha elections in April-May. It will be interesting to see as to how the PDP faces the NC-Congress alliance in the Kashmir valley and whether the BJP bags a Lok Sabha seat in the Jammu region after taking its tally from one to 11 in the Assembly. |
Protesters teargassed, four injured
Srinagar, January 17 The clashes between the police and groups of youth took place at Bohri Kadal and Nowhatta in the vicinity of Jamia Masjid where a complete shutdown was observed by the people against the alleged excesses of the security forces yesterday, the sources said. The protests were staged despite a probe ordered by the authorities into the complaints of alleged highhandedness by the security forces while chasing the anti-Israel protesters in the Saraf Kadal area of the interior city yesterday. Meanwhile, a protest bandh was observed in interior parts of the city. All shops and business establishments at Rajouri Kadal, Saraf Kadal, Bohri Kadal, Nowhatta and adjoining areas remained closed since this morning in protest, the sources said. They said all modes of public and private vehicles also remained off the roads in the areas. The residents were agitated over the action of the security personnel, who allegedly beat up the local residents at Saraf Kadal, ransacked their houses and smashed the wind screens of a number of parked vehicles during the clashes yesterday, the sources added. As the day advanced, groups of youth appeared at Bohri Kadal and Nowhatta and Pelted police and paramilitary personnel with stones and the clashes between the two sides continued for the most part of the day. The sources said the police initially used batons to disperse the protesters, but as it proved ineffective, it burst tear gas shells to disperse them. The clashes left four persons injured. The authorities last evening announced a probe into the alleged highhandedness of the security forces. Following complaints that security personnel had damaged window panes of some houses and vehicles in the Saraf Kadal area during violent clashes with anti-Israeli protesters, IGP, Kashmir, B Srinivas asked the SSP, Srinagar, to probe the matter, a police spokesman said here yesterday. The CRPF company concerned was also shifted from the area in view of the complaints by the residents. Meanwhile, the chairman of the separatist Hurriyat Conference, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, has expressed concern over the alleged excesses by the CRPF in the area yesterday. In a statement here today, the Mirwaiz condemned the action and asked the government to take action against security personnel responsible for the incidents. Both factions of the APHC, led by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Syed Ali Geelani, and the JKLF, the Peoples Conference of Sajad Lone and other separatist and mainstream parties have expressed concern over the attacks in Gaza. Awami National Conference president Khalida Shah also condemned Israel for killing innocent civilians in Gaza. |
Defacement of Property
Jammu, January 17 Joint municipal commissioner JS Tandon warned various institutions, particularly coaching centres, to restrain themselves from defacing public property. Tandon asked these institutions to remove their posters from the walls immediately. He said: If they do not restrain themselves, then the corporation will take legal action against them. Some social, religious and coaching institutions have defaced various public properties, giving a shabby look to the city of temples. The walls of MAM College, Jammu University, Science College and Commerce College at Jewel Chowk and Women College at Parade depicts the level of defacement done by these institutions. This despite the fact that the anti-defacement drive launched by the MC is underway. Our college walls are fully covered with the pamphlets of different coaching centers. Though the college authorities remove them repeatedly, these institutions dont budge, said Neha Rajput, a MAM college student. |
Widespread snow, rain in state
Srinagar/Udhampur, January 17 Mountain ranges surrounding the valley, including Gulmarg and Pahalgam hill resorts, were lashed by heavy snowfall last night, officials said. Plains like Banihal, Batote and Qazigund along the 300-km Srinagar-Jammu national highway were lashed by heavy rain, leading to temporary suspension of traffic for couple of hours today, they said. Banihal recorded 39.0 mm of rains followed by Batote (31.8) and Qazigund (31.2). The minimum temperature in Srinagar, which had shot up to 3.5°C the previous night, dipped to 1.5°C following 17.4 mm of rain till 8.30 am today. However, Jammu witnessed a warmer night as the winter capital recorded a low of 12.4°C, even as it received 6.2 mm of rain. The night temperature increased in Katra, the base camp for the Vaishno Devi shrine, as the city recorded a low of 10.9°C, Bhaderwah (4.5°C), Kokernag (2.6°C), despite 26.7 mm of rains. Meanwhile, the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway has been reopened for vehicular traffic today. The highway was closed yesterday due to heavy snowfall near the Jawahar Tunnel and adjoining localities. |
Life out of gear in Leh
Leh, January 17 Nubra valley and Saichen were cut off for the second consecutive day today following the closure of the Khardong pass. According to the Leh police, about 2 feet of snow had accumulated. Public transport between Leh and Kargil districts had also been affected. |
Ill-treatment of Maid
Jammu, January 17 But the measure is being seen as inadequate as Meera Bai (16) has not got any medical aid or psychiatric counselling. Reports said the warden, Amisha Gupta, had left her official residence while the girl, gripped by fear psychosis, was still putting up with hostelers. The administration is still sleeping over the issue as none from the government side has come to the rescue of the girl, the hostelers said. They expressed dissatisfaction over the universitys handling of the matter and termed its move as mere
eyewash. Even a day after the incident, Provost BL Sharma did not allow reporters to meet Meera Bai saying that the university had asked the resident warden to voluntarily resign from her post. He assured that reporters would be allowed to talk to the girl after two-three days. Veteran journalist and state secretary of the Peoples Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL) Balraj Puri criticised the university administration for not referring the case to the police or the Human Rights Commission. Law should take its own course as the resident warden is accused under laws like human trafficking, child labour, atrocities on domestic servant and human rights violation,
he said. The administration must contact the parents of girl, and before they come, she should be kept at Nari Niketan, he said adding that the authorities must ensure that she gets remuneration under the Minimum Wages Act along with interest for her two years service. Meanwhile, secretary, State Women Commission, Jammu, Hafiza Muzzafar said: I am taking up the issue with the National Women Commission besides writing to the commission in Chhattisgarh. Despite repeated attempts, SP South, Mudassir Latifi could not be reached for his comments. |
Minister reviews functioning of health dept
Srinagar, January 17 Describing doctors profession as noble and sensitive, the minister impressed upon the doctors to provide patients available medicare facilities. Addressing senior officers of the Health Department of the Kashmir division, Sharma said people had pinned high hopes from the present government and we had to make collective efforts to come up to their expectations. Director of the Health Department Muzaffar Ahmad said work was in progress at a cost of Rs 10 crore on the construction of new district hospital buildings in Shopian, Kulgam, Ganderbal and Bandipora districts. He said construction of sub-district hospitals at Seer Hamdan and Yaripora in Anantnag district were nearing completion. Similarly, work is apace on the construction of hospitals at Tangdhar, Karnah and Uri. A joint meeting of officers of the Horticulture and the Floriculture Department convened by the minister was informed that the annual product of fresh fruit had touched 1.5 lakh metric tons in the valley, accruing an income of Rs 1,700 crore. The production of dry fruits yielded an income of Rs 300 crore annually. While reviewing the functioning of the Floriculture Department, the minister was informed that gardens and parks in the valley had an income of Rs 5 crore from the cultivation of flowers and its sale during the last fiscal. |
Release of PSA Detainees
Jammu, January 17 Addressing the media here today, state BJP president Ashok Khajuria claimed that the charges against those released were heinous in nature. He further condemned the state government for not lifting PSA warrants against Swami Dinesh Bharti. The Act was invoked against Dinesh during the Amarnath land agitation in Jammu. He dubbed the government move as the one to appease fundamental forces. He demanded the immediate withdrawal of PSA warrants issued against Dinesh Bharti. We will not tolerate this type of attitude of the government and will agitate over the matter in the Assembly and, if required, on roads, he warned. He claimed that during negotiations with Amarnath Yatra Sangarsh Samiti leaders the government had agreed to withdraw the PSA warrants against Dinesh Bharti. Flaying the Congress, the BJP leader said, It is sad that Congress leaders are mum over the issue. The silence will be considered as criminal if they do not come forward to agitate over the demands of the Jammu region. Khajuria said Chief Minister Omar Abdullah should take guidance from his father and NC president Farooq Abdullah and should not repeat such acts that could disturb the communal fabric of the state. He also appealed to the government to immediately accept the long pending demands of government employees regarding the implementation of the Sixth Pay Commissions recommendations. It may be mentioned here that the state government had ordered the revocation of detention of 15 PSA detainees yesterday, which included Mohammad Akbar Khanday, alias Ayas Akbar, spokesperson for hardline separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Hurriyat leader Nissar Hussain Rather and Noor Mohammad Kalwal, a top Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front leader. |
Interference in scholars body polls alleged
Jammu, January 17 Addressing media persons, Sharma said heads of various departments had threatened students as well as class representatives to support their blue-eyed candidates in the run up for department representatives. The university administration wants to turn scholars body into puppet body by planting its own candidates in it, he alleged and demanded free and fair elections without any outside interference. Sharma said the university authorities had constituted a committee for formulating constitution of the JURSEA two years back. He resented that the same had yet not come out with the constitution of scholars body. Some departments got notifications only a few days back. The authorities must give some time for preparation, he said. |
Joint panel to review status of Urdu
Jammu, January 17 The announcement was made by Vice-chancellor of Kashmir University Prof Reyaz Punjabi and endorsed by Vice-chancellor of JU Prof Varun Sahni during the inaugural function of the two-day national seminar on Urdu in J&K - Past, Present and Future. The seminar was recently organised by the Centre for Professional Studies in Urdu University of Jammu and the Urdu Department, Kashmir University. Announcing the setting up of the committee, Prof Punjabi said: The committee comprises of prominent Urdu writers of the Jammu and Kashmir varsities, adding that the state government needs to be sensitised about its constitutional obligations towards the language in the state. Meanwhile, director of the Centre for Professional Studies in Urdu University of Jammu Prof Shohab Inayat Malik and head of the Urdu Department in Kashmir University Prof Nazir Ahmad Malik demanded setting up of the Urdu Academy in the state. |
Students hold awareness rally
Jammu, January 17 The students were holding placards denouncing communalism,
privatisation, female foeticide, besides demanding women empowerment. Addressing the rally on the inaugural day of the conference, senior journalist from
Tehelka, Ajit Sahi, spoke over growing communal intolerance. He stressed that there was no conflict between Hindus and Muslims and the wedge, if any, had been created by political parties. Prof Rekha Choudhary spoke over rampant privatisation of education and said there was need to revamp governmental education institutes. Students from colleges and university from more than six districts participated in the
conference. Students of Government Degree College, Samba, enacted a street play, Janata pagal ho
gaye (people go mad) while Government Degree College, Kathua, staged Samrajywaad ki loot (exploitation by imperialism), which got applause from students and other people. |
State facing constitutional crisis
Jammu, January 17 Harsh Dev, who is a noted constitutional lawyer, has pointed out that the state Assembly, which was duly constituted before January 1, should have been convened by the Governor with or without the recommendation of the government on or before January 7. Section 53 of the Jammu and Kashmir constitution makes it mandatory to ensure that the intervening period between the two sessions of the Assembly should not exceed six months. The last day of the previous Assembly, when it met, was July 7, 2008, he said. He said the Assembly session should have been held by January 7 to meet the mandatory requirement of the constitution of the state. |
Sangarsh samiti, VHP threaten stir
Jammu, January 17 VHP and other Hindu organisations here, too, were enraged over the way the coalition government had yesterday ordered the revocation of PSA warrants against 15 detainees. Barring one person, who is from Rajouri district, remaining 14 belonged to the Kashmir valley. Very soon the VHP would convene a meeting to devise a plan of action regarding Dinesh Bharti and if forced by the government the entire Sadhu Samaj would resort to protests, he said. |
Mubarak Mandi Complex
Jammu, January 17 The Union Tourism Ministry has released Rs 3 crore out of Rs 4.37 crore sanctioned for the first phase involving the conservation work of the complex. Jora said several heritage sites spread across the state could be showcased for promoting heritage tourism. He said the government was committed to restoring the old glory of all cultural heritages of the state for which necessary measures would be initiated. |

I like PHP, which is sort of surprising because a few years ago I would have told you I didn't want to touch web stuff.
I can work on the front end as well, but it's probably best if you don't rely on me to design it. I'm not great with colour. :)
Are you looking to hire an entry level/junior PHP developer in Canada? I'm available!
Contact me at [StackOverflow Username]@gmail.com with your location, requirements, and salary range. Full-time employment only, please. No contracts.
I'm currently based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, but I'm more than willing to relocate since I'm not from here originally.

Does the transcription method used (e.g., printing, handwriting, typing, voice recording, etc.) affect memory retention?
Sorry for the late accept. I wanted to read through the Schoen paper before accepting, and although I read over the abstract as soon as I finished your answer, I just got around to reading (well, skimming) the rest of it now. Thank you for the detailed answer, and for finally putting this occasionally nagging question to rest. |

Baba Sushi
Worcester, MA
So a couple weeks ago me and my friend went to this AMAZING sushi restaurant! The restaurant itself was half sushi bar and half tikki hut style! We were seated on the sushi bar side and i felt like I was in a high-class japanese restaurant in New York!
The food itself was even more amazing than the ambiance! We ordered the tiger eye roll and spider roll and let me say it was like my tastebuds entered a heaven of flavors! The sushi had just the right amount of sauce on it and there isa good ratio of rice versus fillings (that sounds really gross…fillings lol). Baba Sushi is worth trying, a bit pricey, but worth the money.

3/6/2007—The New York City Department of Education has signed IBM to develop and deploy a new data management system for New York City Schools, which serves some 1.1 million students and employs more than 90,000 teachers. The system will be designed to measure student performance and progress in real time and provide that information to educators and parents.
The new Achievement Reporting and Innovation System (ARIS) to be developed by IBM is part of New York's Accountability Initiative. According to the terms of the five-year, $80 million deal with NYC DOE, IBM will deliver software, hardware, consulting, and technology services around the system, which will track students' academic achievements ad report data to parents and educators. The aim, according to the NCY DOE, is to allow parents and teacher to adjust curricula to meet individual student needs.
Said Joel Klein, chancellor of NYC Schools, "ARIS will give the teachers, the principals, and the parents of New York City the critical tools they need to really understand what students know—and don't know. Armed with this information, our educators will be able to tailor instruction to their students' needs and parents will be able to get involved in their children's education like never before."
The first phase of implementation is scheduled to be completed in September, at which point administrators and educators will have access to student data. Beginning in the fall semester, parents will begin receiving ARIS reports on their students. NYC DOE expects to have the second phase completed in September 2008, at which point parents will have online access to the system. There are approximately 800,000 parents with students in New York City Schools.

Breed Profile
Boston Terrier
- WEIGHT: 10 to 25 lbs
- HEIGHT: 15 to 17 inches
- COLOR(S): Black, brindle, seal, with white markings on muzzle, between eyes, and chest. Possible white markings on legs.
- BREED GROUP: Non-Sporting
Breed Profile
English Boodle
WEIGHT: 15 to 55 lbs
HEIGHT: 12 to 16 inches
COLOR(S): Mixed colors of black, cream, gray, brown, red, and reddish brown.
An English Boodle is a Poodle hybrid that is a cross-breed of a Poodle and a English Bulldog and may demonstrate any combination of traits from those two breeds. Poodle hybrids have become very popular in the past few years. They play a big role in the current designer dog trend. The cross with the Poodle is usually because of the Poodle's nonshedding coat. The experimentation of these hybrid or designer dogs has not been recognized by the American Kennel Club or Canadian Kennel Club. The key to cross breeding to purebred dogs is what is called hybrid vigor, the breeding resulting in a healthier dog with superior genetic constitution can come from dogs purebred for so long that they have common genetic disorders.
Affectionate, loyal, and gentle, English Boodle puppies and dogs are family oriented. They do not do well if left alone for extended periods of time and will become destructive and bark incessantly if bored or lonely. They do well in homes with considerate children. English Boodle puppies and dogs do best with dogs and other household pets they have been raised with. The English Boodle is an adept watchdog who will alert their family to visitors or out of the ordinary sounds.
Regular brushing is recommended for English Boodle puppies and dogs. Bathing should be done when necessary using a mild shampoo.
English Boodle puppies and dogs may be prone to such health issues as skin infection, PRA, epilepsy, and heart disease.
The exercise needs of English Boodle puppies and dogs will vary. They are well-suited for apartment living. They enjoy family activities, securely leashed walks, and off-lead play time in a securely fenced yard.
English Boodle puppies and dogs may be stubborn. However, they will not respond to harsh or heavy-handed methods. Training must be done with firmness, fairness, patience, and consistency.

More information: |
Max Fleischer (1883-1972) was for years considered Walt Disney's only real rival in the world of cartoon animation. The man behind the creation of such legendary characters as Betty Boop and the animation of Popeye the Sailor and Superman, Fleischer asserted himself as a major player in the development of Hollywood entertainment. While deeply engaged with his characters, Fleischer also sought ways to improve his art through technical innovation. In the 1920s and 1930s, Fleischer created many patented inventions and introduced new special effects such as startling combinations of live action and animation, as well as a musical series involving jazz artists such as Cab Calloway and Louis Armstrong. In spite of its great popularity and success, however, the studio was abruptly closed in 1942. The animated cartoon industry was shocked, and the event went unexplained for many years. Now, Max's son Richard has at last solved the mystery of the shuttering of Fleischer Studios.--From publisher description.

Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering Review Articles
Reservoir modeling of shale formations
May 2013
Shahab D. Mohaghegh
Abstract: Economic production from shale has been intimately tied to hydraulic fracturing since the first signs of success in Barnet Shale in the late 90s. The introduction of horizontal wells and multi-stage hydraulic fracturing was met by a huge move by operators toward developing shale formations that were mainly ignored in the past. Today using pad drilling, multiple horizontal wells share surface facilities and infrastructure, a development that minimizes the industry's environmental footprint. To understand production from shale reservoirs one must understand the network of natural fractures in the shale and the role of hydraulically induced fractures and their interaction.Hydraulic fracturing has been around and been studied by engineers for decades. Analytical, numerical and data-driven models have been built to explain their behavior and contribution to flow. Contribution of natural fracture networks to storage and flow in carbonate (and some sandstone) reservoirs had led to the development of techniques to study and model them. Since they are the predominant source of porosity and permeability in shale, more attention has been focused on their characteristics in the recent years. Studies of methane production from coal seams in the mid 80s provided insights on sorption as a storage mechanism and desorption and diffusion as a transport phenomenon in reservoirs that came to be known as CBM (Coalbed Methane). Today, production from shale is mainly modeled based on lessons learned in the past several decades where all the above techniques are integrated to create the modern shale reservoir models.The coupling of hydraulic fractures and natural fracture networks and their integration and interaction with the shale matrix remains the major challenge in reservoir simulation and modeling of shale formations. This article reviews the methods used by scientists and engineers in recent years to understand the complexities associated with production from shale. This will shed light on the commonly held belief amongst some of the best minds in reservoir engineering (those that have been intimately involved in modeling production from shale) that there is much to be learned about this complex resource and that our best days in understanding and modeling how oil and gas are produced from shale are still ahead of us.
A review of Australia's natural gas resources and their exploitation
January 2013
Daniel T.B. Leather | Alireza Bahadori | Chikezie Nwaoha | David A. Wood
Abstract: Australia's gas resources are large enough to support projected domestic and export market growth beyond 2030 and are expected to grow further. Most (around 92 per cent) of Australia's conventional gas resources are located in the Carnarvon, Browse and Bonaparte basins off the north-west coast.Large coal seam gas (CSG) resources exist in the coal basins of Queensland and New South Wales. Tight gas accumulations are located in onshore Western Australia and South Australia, while potential shale gas resources are located in the Northern Territory, Western Australia and South Australia.
A review and outlook for the global LNG trade
November 2012
David A. Wood
Abstract: The evolution of global and regional LNG trade over the past twenty years has been a story of rapid growth, diversification and increased flexibility in LNG cargo movements. Asia continues to dominate global LNG trade, but the European LNG market has evolved significantly in the past decade and seems destined for sustained growth and diversification over the next decade or so. Despite the LNG import market in North America being overwhelmed by unconventional gas developments in the past few years, future sustained growth of LNG demand in Asia and Europe are underpinned by firm new project commitments. A number of North American LNG export projects are progressing with a view to supplying this growing market demand in Europe and Asia. New gas discoveries in deepwater offshore East Africa and Eastern Mediterranean are also likely to compete for LNG market share in growing European and Asian gas markets Country and regional statistics presented illustrate how significantly the global LNG industry has changed in the past decade. These statistics reveal the complexity of commercial, political and technical drivers at play, particularly in the case of Europe, and how these drivers are conspiring to boost future demand for LNG.
Introduction and advancement of a new clean global fuel: The status of DME developments in China and beyond
November 2012
T.H. Fleisch | A. Basu | R.A. Sills
Abstract: The last two decades saw the emergence of a new multi-source, multi-market fuel, Dimethyl Ether or DME. Prior to 1990, DME had only found limited commercial use as an aerosol propellant along with propane and butane as a green replacement for the chlorofluoro-hydrocarbons which were outlawed because of their detrimental impact on the ozone layer. DME is an environmentally benign, non-toxic, biodegradable product with physical properties similar to LPG. Global DME annual production capacity is approximately 10 million metric tons and actual market use is reported to be about 3 million metric tons – a remarkable increase from the 200,000 metric tons market demand in the early 2000s. Nearly all of the DME is produced in China from coal-derived methanol via the well known catalytic dehydration process where two molecules of methanol react to form one molecule of DME and one molecule of water. DME is the fastest-growing methanol derivative, yet is still an emerging business with lots of upside opportunities combined with significant challenges. A number of other DME plants are in different stages of development around the world including Egypt, Middle East and Indonesia, all of them natural gas based. Sweden is the leader in the development of bio-DME produced through the gasification and conversion of black liquor, a byproduct in Sweden's paper and pulp industry.Nearly all of today's DME is used as a blend stock for LPG which in turn is primarily used for cooking and heating. At blending levels below 20 vol %, the existing LPG blending facilities, local distribution infrastructure and end-use equipment can be used with minimal (if any) modifications – making for easy marketing. Currently, efforts are underway to commercialize DME as a high-quality diesel alternative. Technical issues such as new fuel injection systems and new fuel additives have been solved and solutions are currently being tested in fleets. This review will describe the history, status and future of DME as a global fuel alternative and how it has and will be changing the global methanol industry.
Gas-to-liquids (GTL): A review of an industry offering several routes for monetizing natural gas
November 2012
David A. Wood | Chikezie Nwaoha | Brian F. Towler
Abstract: Gas-to-liquids (GTL) has emerged as a commercially-viable industry over the past thirty years offering market diversification to remote natural gas resource holders. Several technologies are now available through a series of patented processes to provide liquid products that can be more easily transported than natural gas, and directed into high value transportation fuel and other petroleum product and petrochemical markets. Recent low natural gas prices prevailing in North America are stimulating interest in GTL as a means to better monetise isolated shale gas resources. This article reviews the various GTL technologies, the commercial plants in operation, development and planning, and the range of market opportunities for GTL products.The Fischer–Tropsch (F–T) technologies dominate both large-scale and small-scale projects targeting middle distillate liquid transportation fuel markets. The large technology providers have followed strategies to scale-up plants over the past decade to provide commercial economies of scale, which to date have proved to be more costly than originally forecast. On the other hand, some small-scale technology providers are now targeting GTL at efforts to eliminate associated gas flaring in remote producing oil fields. Also, potential exists on various scales for GTL to supply liquid fuels in land-locked gas-rich regions. Technology routes from natural gas to gasoline via olefins are more complex and have so far proved difficult and costly to scale-up commercially. Producing dimethyl ether (DME) from coal and gas are growing markets in Asia, particularly China, Korea and Japan as LPG substitutes, and plans to scale-up one-step process technologies avoiding methanol production could see an expansion of DME supply chains.The GTL industry faces a number of challenges and risks, including: high capital costs; efficiency and reliability of complex process sequences; volatile natural gas, crude oil and petroleum product markets; integration of upstream and downstream projects; access to technology. This review article considers the GTL industry in the context of available opportunities and the challenges faced by project developers.
Pros and cons of different Nitrogen Removal Unit (NRU) technology
July 2012
J.C. Kuo | K.H. Wang | Chris Chen
Abstract: For any gas or LNG plant, higher levels of nitrogen within your feed gas mean lower profitable volumes or additional capital investment. Nitrogen Removal Units (NRU) can be expensive to build and difficult to operate. The challenges facing the gas industry are highlighted by the Gas Technology Institute (GTI, USA) in their estimates that 11% of current daily gas production and 16% of all known gas reserves in the USA contain some nitrogen.Recent gas reservoir discoveries around the world were also found to contain significant levels of nitrogen up to the 15% range. Also, some current production techniques for maintaining crude recovery from a reservoir utilize the injection of nitrogen as enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method. Gradually and eventually, the equilibrium nitrogen dissolved in the crude will come to the surface as associated gas when the nitrogen breaks through.Gas companies typically set maximum concentration limits on nitrogen content in the pipeline between 4.0 and 7.0 percent depending on the local product specifications. Therefore, in general, nitrogen levels of greater than 7.0 percent must undergo removal.The author's focus in this paper is on the selection/design criteria to be considered for the selection of an optimum NRU technology.1) Feed gas nitrogen concentrations,2) NRU inlet pressure,3) NRU capacity,4) Product Specifications,5) Approaches for the final disposition of the recovered hydrocarbon stream: (e.g., as fuel gas, re-injection or recycle back to feed gas),6) Environmental NOx emissions impact,7) Allowable methane concentration in the nitrogen vent.The author summaries all currently available technologies including both commercially demonstrated NRU technologies as well as the future developments.All of those available technologies to be introduced by the author by way of process flow diagrams, descriptions, technology highlights, pre-treatment requirements, strength and weakness and technology licensor/vendor lists are:• Cryogenic Distillation,• Membranes (Membrane Technology and Research (MTR),• Molecular Gate System,• Solvent Absorption,• Nitrogen Sponge,• Pressure swing adsorption (PSA), Carbon Molecular Sieve (CMS),• Lean Oil Absorption,• Chelating chemical.
An unconventional mindset for shale gas surface facilities
May 2012
M. Guarnone | F. Rossi | E. Negri | C. Grassi | D. Genazzi | R. Zennaro
Abstract: Following the "gas revolution" occurring in the USA, where shale gas is contributing to abundant and low-priced domestic gas production, many companies and countries all around the world are considering investing in this type of gas source. Key elements of shale gas production include the extensive drilling campaign, the need for hydraulic fracturing (with its implication on the whole water supply/handling cycle) and the realisation of a continuously growing network of geographically scattered production facilities and flowlines, which accompany gas from wellheads to the final customers.Exporting shale gas experience from the USA to new promising basins will not simply mean customising subsurface technologies (such as drilling & completion or hydraulic fracturing) to a geologically different area; it will especially imply adopting an unconventional mindset for surface facilities. First of all, there may not be a context as fertile as in the USA in terms of existing infrastructures (pipelines, treatment plants) or abundance of local contractors/providers, therefore an efficient engineering and fast-response procurement and construction chain will be more crucial for life-cycle-cost minimization than it is for conventional gas production.Moreover, standardized and repeatable production facilities will likely be the most economically viable way to handle gas flow from hundreds or thousands of wells, designed in parallel with step-by-step territorial studies to locate those facilities considering geographical, infrastructural and legislative constraints and opportunities. Finally, the passage from exploration to extensive commercial production will likely require a proper appraisal campaign through a pilot development, especially in new areas, with the objective to "long-test" shale gas wells performances and optimize full-development approaches in an environmentally friendly way.
Key issues in high-performance natural gas wells
May 2012
Xiuli Wang
Abstract: There are many future opportunities and challenges for natural gas because of its abundance, versatility, and clean burning nature. The demand is increasing but conventional reserves in developed countries are maturing while others are located in harsh and remote environments, often in countries with unstable geopolitical settings. Such resources are in high demand of technologies and face unpredictable economic climates with shortfall of skilled people.With allotted space, this paper only addresses the key issues related to high-performance natural gas wells. Emphasis is given on tubing limitation and turbulence effects on well deliverability of both vertical and horizontal wells with and without artificially induced hydraulic fractures.
Well placement optimization: A survey with special focus on application for gas/gas-condensate reservoirs
March 2012
Hadi Nasrabadi | Adrian Morales | Ding Zhu
Abstract: Well placement within a reservoir is a challenging step in the reservoir development process. Determining the optimal well location is a complex problem involving many factors including geological uncertainty, reservoir and fluid properties, economic costs, and technical ability. Often, broad possibilities and constraints on computational resources limit the scenarios that can be considered. The use of engineering judgment to solve this complex and nonlinear problem may not be sufficient. The use of automatic well placement optimization as an aiding tool has recently gained interest in the petroleum industry and in academia. This paper surveys the literature dealing with well placement optimization. The areas considered include: optimization algorithm, reservoir response model, approach to handle uncertainty, and a special section on well placement optimization in gas/gas-condensate fields. Major drawbacks of current methods and areas of possible future work are identified.
A mechanical model for predicting casing creep load in high temperature wells
July 2011
Feng Qian | Deli Gao
Abstract: Casing collapse is a long-standing problem. Current studies mainly focus on the impact of a single element on casing collapse. In real conditions, however, it is often caused by a comprehensive set of elements. In this paper, a new mechanical model is presented to predict external load of casing. The influence of both rock flow and thermal expansion is taken into consideration. In order to get analytical result, the formation temperature distribution is also discussed. The analytical solution of the model indicates that the compound load is bigger than the addition of their individual effects.
Low liquid loading gas/liquid pipe flow
May 2011
Hong-Quan Zhang | Cem Sarica
Abstract: Low liquid loading gas/liquid flow is frequently encountered in natural gas production and wet gas transmission through long distance pipelines. In this review the typical flow phenomena of low liquid loading gas/liquid pipe flow are described based on the experimental measurements and observations conducted by different authors during the past several decades. The proposed models for flow pattern, pressure gradient and liquid holdup predictions, and closure relationships developed in the previous literatures are introduced and discussed.
Natural gas to synthesis gas – Catalysts and catalytic processes
May 2011
K. Aasberg-Petersen | I. Dybkjær | C.V. Ovesen | N.C. Schjødt | J. Sehested | S.G. Thomsen
Abstract: Natural gas is a dominating feedstock for the production of several bulk chemicals such as ammonia, methanol, and dimethyl ether (DME), and for the increasingly important production of synthetic liquid fuels by Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FT synthesis) and similar processes.A major step in the conversion of natural gas to products is the production of synthesis gas with the desired composition – ranging from the 3:1 mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen used for production of ammonia to the 1:1 mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide preferred for production of DME.Catalysts and catalytic processes are important in the production of synthesis gas from natural gas. As an example, production of ammonia synthesis gas may in modern plants involve up to 8 separate catalytic process steps.In the article, relevant catalytic technologies are reviewed with emphasis on the present status and possible future developments. The relevant technologies are:•Final feed gas purification•Adiabatic prereforming•Fired tubular reforming•Heat exchange steam reforming•Adiabatic, oxidative reforming, mainly autothermal reforming (ATR) and secondary reforming•Other reforming technologies such as Catalytic Partial Oxidation (CPO) and Ceramic Membrane Reforming (CMR).•Conversion of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide by the shift reaction•Final purification of synthesis gas, mainly removal of nitrogen compounds and removal of carbon oxides by methanation.After the discussion of the individual catalysts and catalytic process steps, applications are illustrated by summary descriptions of complete process concepts for production of ammonia, methanol, and hydrocarbons by low temperature FT synthesis (GTL). In a final section, future trends in the area are briefly discussed.
Influence of the plot area in an economical analysis for selecting small scale LNG technologies for remote gas production
December 2010
L. Castillo | C.A. Dorao
Abstract: The future commercial exploitation of remote, small and less accessible gas fields might require the development of new technologies. In particular, LNG technologies are a possible solution for the exploitation of such gas reserves. However, the economy of scale is not applicable and constraint in the offshore installation and harsh environmental conditions require compact and efficient solutions. During the last decade several liquefaction technologies are available for small and medium LNG plants. Even though, the comparison between these technologies from an economical point of view is limited to the efficiency of the process and some qualitative parameters. In this work two groups of LNG technologies are analyzed for a given development scenario. The most important aspect in this work is that the cost related to the offshore installation is included as a component of the CAPEX of the project. The plot area required for each technology plays a significant role in the final comparison and this parameter should not be neglected in the economical analysis of future offshore LNG plants.
Natural gas utilisation in Nigeria: Challenges and opportunities
December 2010
Charles Asekhame Odumugbo
Abstract: Following Nigeria's gas reserves currently estimated at 182 TCF (trillion cubic feet) with a projected growth rate of over 70% by 2025, the nation's gas sector has proven to have the potential of being a key player in the emergent global natural gas market. Unfortunately, even with this huge gas reserve, not much has been accomplished with respect of the effective exploitation and utilisation of this abundant natural gas reserve of which some of this gas reserves are termed 'stranded' whose volume and location are often considered as non-commercial and difficult to exploit. That notwithstanding, up until now most of the nation's natural gas production has been flared or re-injected to enhance greater crude oil recovery. With electric power generation at its ground state, crippling rate of unemployment, emergent global climate change caused by green house emissions from flare-out, it has become imperative to further find ways to exploit and utilise the nation's natural gas reserves and translate it to the improvement of the nation's economy.This paper provides a holistic review to the various technologies for the development, transportation and effective utilisation of the nation's natural gas reserves, its various challenges and opportunities.

Natural gas hydrates – A promising source of energy
March 2010
Yuri F. Makogon
Abstract: Gas hydrates are clathrate physical compounds, in which the molecules of gas are occluded in crystalline cells, consisting of water molecules retained by the energy of hydrogen bonds. All gases can form hydrates under different pressures and temperatures. The crystalline structure of solid gas hydrate crystals has a strong dependence on gas composition, pressure, and temperature. Presently, three crystalline structures are known (Sloan, 1990, 2007) to form at moderate pressure, and nearly ten structures in the pressure range above 100MPa. For example, methane hydrate can be stable at a pressure of 20nPa to 2GPa, and at temperatures changing from 70 to 350K (Makogon, 1997). Formation of gas hydrate occurs when water and natural gas are present at a low temperature and a high pressure. Such conditions often exist in oil and gas wells, and pipeline equipment.Hydrate plugs can damage gas transport system equipment. The petroleum industry spends about one billion US dollars a year to prevent hydrate formation in wells, pipelines and equipment. Natural deposits of gas hydrates also exist on Earth in colder regions, such as permafrost, or sea bottom areas. Natural gas hydrates are an unconventional energy resource. Potential reserves of gas in hydrated posits distributed offshore and on land are over 1.5×1016m3 (Makogon, 1982). About 97% of natural gas hydrates have been located offshore, and only 3% on land.At present time, there are several successful federal research programs in a number of countries for research and development of gas hydrate deposits. Over 230 gas hydrate deposits were discovered, over a hundred wells drilled, and kilometers of cores studied. Gas hydrate resource is distributed conveniently for development by most every country. Effective tools for the recovery of gas from hydrate deposits, and new technology for development of gas hydrate deposits are being developed. There is a commercial production of natural gas from hydrates in Siberia. Researchers continue to study the properties of natural gas hydrates at reservoir conditions, and develop new technologies for exploration and production of gas from hydrate deposits in different geological formations.
