quantities in the lab, work will continue to see if this may be a viable commercial
pathway to 'drop in fuels'.
t would not be incorrect to say that today we stay in a Plastic World. Recycling
Iplastic and rubber waste has been a challenge since long and the Research &
Development (R&D) in the field is an ongoing process. This article intends to cover
and bring out one such invention by South Africa's inventor and engineer William
Graham. The engineer has tried to convert waste plastics and old tyres into a variety of
fuels to power our modern lifestyles. He has designed a modular, fully automated
plastics-to-fuel processing plant. The system can accommodate all types of plastics
(except PVC, due to its chlorine content) as well as vehicle tyres. Even polystyrene
foam used in takeaway containers and gadget packing-can be used as feedstock. The
invention generates a top-quality multi-fuel.

Plastic to Oil Plant
The plant consists of a three-chambered reactor which allows him to control the time
duration, pressure levels and temperatures of all gases as they are passed through
various stages. Graham also installed a cleaning process for hydrocarbon gases and a
mechanical catalyzer. The average processing time is approximately four-and-a-half-
hours. The plant operates in a closed-system loop i.e. this equates to zero emissions.
It's a pyrolysis system (a thermal decomposition of organic material at elevated
temperatures of organic material in the absence of oxygen), with no use of chemicals.
Waste plastic or tyre rubber is fed into the reactors and is then processed.
Fuelling Energy From Waste

SE Petroleum
A New Approach to facing Rod Pump Challenges
-Drumil Shah
TE Petroleum
n today's era of petroleum rates going up along with the increasing demands it has
become the need of the hour to shoot up the production by optimum and efficient I
use of the equipment and optimizing the operations involving production. There are
multiple ways to increase the well productivity which includes various artificial lift
methods, Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), Chemical and polymer flooding and water
flooding. The artificial lift methods are differentiated as pump assisted and gas
assisted. As the name suggests both processes include pump and gas as the driving
agents respectively. The most widely and globally used, pump-assisted artificial lift
method is the SRP (Sucker Rod Pump). The goal of all SRP operators is to extend
run life of the pump while maximizing the production but the challenge is to do so
without starving the pump and damaging expensive pump components.
There are about 2 million oil wells globally and out of which around 38% wells
use artificial lift methods for production. The use of these methods results in wear
and tear of pumps since pumps face many challenges like inefficient pumping, wear,
corrosion, pump failures, etc. The most common challenges are mechanical wearing
and corrosion whose management are an important part of optimizing operations.
A new type of rod pump, the Linear Lift System (LLS) was developed whose aim
was to overcome the challenges faced by the pumps used earlier and optimize the
operations. The LLS has the same down hole equipment as the conventional rod
pump system, consisting of tubings, rods and a pump. The difference lies in the
surface equipment, which is smaller in size and has an automatic pump-off controller
and a self-adjusting, ultra-long variable speed stroke. These characteristics have the
following advantages over the conventional rod pump system:
1) It leads to efficient pumping through its self-adjusting, ultra-long variable
speed stroke.
2) Mechanical wear of rod and tubing is reduced due to the automatic pump-off
controller feature.
3) The smaller size surface equipment decreases the environmental impact.
4) Transportation, site preparation and installation costs are minimal.
The pump-off controller integrated software automatically senses the down hole
conditions and changes the fluid levels accordingly. It also adjusts unit speed to
maintain the fluid levels, avoiding pump-off conditions and also reduces the effects
of fluid weight or fluid pressure on the rod string. The above feature of LLS initiates
more efficient pumping, reduces the mechanical wear of rod/tubing and also the
pump failures, increases daily production and reduces the time required. The

put in the sea in 2013, carrying FLNG (Floating liquid
natural gas).
SPE Guide for Professional Conduct
PREAMBLE
Engineers recognize that the practice of engineering has a vital influence on the
quality of life for all people. Engineers should exhibit high standards of competency,
honesty, integrity & impartiality; be fair and equitable; and accept a personal
responsibility for adherence to applicable laws, the protection of the environment, and
safeguarding the public welfare in their professional actions and behavior. These
principles govern professional conduct in surveying the interest of the public, clients,
employers, colleagues and the profession.
THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE
The engineer as a professional is dedicated to improving competence, service,
fairness and the exercise of well-founded judgment in the ethical practice of
engineering for all who use the engineering services with fundamental concern of
protecting the environment and safe-guarding the health, safety and well-being of the
public in the pursuit of this practice.
CANONS ON PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT
Engineers offer services in the areas of their competence & experience, affording
full disclosure of their qualifications.
Engineers consider the consequences of their work and societal issues pertinent
to it and seek to extend public understanding of those relationships.
Engineers are honest, truthful, ethical & fair in presenting information and
making public statement which reflect on public matters and their professional
role.
Engineers engage in professional relationships without bias because of race,
religion, gender, age, ethnic or national origin, attire or dis-ability.
Engineers act in professional matters for each employer or client as faithful
agents or trustees disclosing nothing of a proprietary or confidential nature
concerning the business affairs or technical processes of any present or former
client or employer without the necessary consent.
Engineers disclose to affected parties any known or potential conflicts of interest
or other circumstances which might influence, or appear to influence judgement
or impair the fairness or quality of the performance.
Engineers are responsible for enhancing their professional competent throughout
their careers and for encouraging similar actions by their colleagues.
Engineers accept responsibility for their actions; seek and acknowledge criticism
of their work, offer honest and constructive criticism of the work of others;
properly credit the contributions of others, and do not accept credit for work not
their own.
Engineers, perceiving a consequence of their professional duties to adversely
affect the present or future public health and safety, shall formally advice their
employers or clients, and, if warranted, consider further disclosure.
Engineers seek to adopt technical and economical measures to minimize
environmental impact.
Engineers participate with other professionals in multi-disciplined teams to
create synergy and to add value to their work product.
Engineers act in accordance with all applicable laws and the cannons of ethics as
applicable to the practice of engineering as stated in the laws and regulations

Discussion and Guidance on Ethics Examples
These are not hypothetical cases. They are disguised situations based on actual
experiences encountered. The answers to some of the questions posed are relatively
easy. The others are more difficult. To some questions there is probably not a simple
right answer. Perhaps these cases will lead to a heightened awareness of ethical
dilemmas and the need to approach same with caution and a sense of doing what is
right.
First Situation involves a partnership comprised of an engineer and a geologist. They
specialize in evaluating oil and gas properties and prospects. They are approached by a
promoter who packages producing properties for sale. The promoter makes a proposal
along these lines, let's join forces to sell this deal. You two do the geology and
engineering involved in an evaluation report; we'll sell the deal and split the
promotion. While not verbalized, there's a hint, (very thinly veiled) that an evaluation
containing the highest possible value is expected. The engineer and geologist explain
why their proposed role would be a conflict of interest and decide not to accept the
proposal. The promoter doesn't understand why conflict of interest would be an issue,
as opposed to the concept of aggressive salesmanship.
What do you think? Did the consultants act properly or were they overly cautious?
Suggested Answer The consultants acted properly, assuming their primary business
objective is to provide evaluation services. In some cases, it may be proper for an
evaluator to participate in preparation of a sales package but only if his role and
compensatory participation are completely disclosed to potential buyers.
Second Situation involves a registered professional engineer, who specializes in
property evaluations for estate tax filings. He has the reputation of being very thrifty
with his own and his clients' money. Furthermore, he's biased against the Internal
Revenue Service, believing strongly that estate tax laws are grossly unfair and
confiscatory. He has been engaged by representatives of a very wealthy deceased
person to evaluate the estate's oil and gas interests. These representatives make it clear
to the engineer that the estate's tax bracket will be a very high one. There is subtle, but
strong encouragement to keep the appraised value low so as to minimize the tax bite.
The engineer is faced with a tempting thought with two advantages to be gained by
slanting the appraised value as low as possible:
One he gains favor with his client, Two- he can strike a blow against the IRS
What Do You Think? Does the engineer yield to temptation? If challenged by the IRS
and a higher value is derived, is he a loser or a hero for making a valiant effort? Is his
reputation damaged? Who's to know what transpired outside the IRS and those
associated with the estate?
Suggested Answer The engineer should play it straight. Whether his work product is
never known to the public or his other clients is immaterial. If he's truly professional
and his ethics are high, he will conduct this evaluation, just like any other on a strictly
unbiased basis.
Third Situation involves a conscientious evaluation engineer named Davis. He has
concerns about one of his consulting clients. The client wants Davis to do a reserve
and evaluation study. Davis is not sure as to how the client will utilize the report or
what representations he will make about it. Davis is willing to provide the client
with a verbal account of the study, but is very reluctant to put his findings in
writing.
What Do You Think?
(1) Should Davis prepare a written report and protect himself with the usual language
concerning restricting use (a) By client or (b) only upon Davis's approval
(2) If Davis does not prepare a written report as requested, has he done the client a
disservice? Or (3) should Davis refuse to do the study at all?
Suggested Answer If Davis has serious concerns about the character and ethical
behavior of the client, he should refuse to do the study and avoid involvement with
the client.

REPORTS REPORTS
EAGE Field Report
- Ankit Bhowmick
BE Petroleum
AGE (European Association of Geoscientists & Engineers) is the world's
Eforemost producer of events organized for geoscience and engineering
professionals with a multi-disciplinary emphasis. Their premier event is the EAGE
Annual Conference and Exhibition held in collaboration with the SPE EUROPEC
Conference in a different European city each year. As a major part of the mission to
share and advance scientific knowledge and provide learning and training
opportunities for the disciplines represented in the membership, EAGE also organizes
or supports an ever increasing range of conferences and exhibitions, workshops,
courses, field trips, and other educational activities.
BP, Total, ExxonMobil, Shell, SPE and the EAGE Student Fund, including Shell,
CGGVeritas and WesternGeco, sponsor the Student Programme.
In December 2012 there were many global universities participating in the Field
Challenge. Multi-disciplinary student teams were invited to write an essay on the
subject of 'Cross-Disciplinary Research: The Way to the Future'. The topic was chosen
to inspire students to challenge frontiers by looking beyond the current scope of
geosciences. A team of highly esteemed professionals judged the essays submitted
from universities around the world and selected the teams they believe would be best
able to compete in the live event in London.
Clearing the first stage i.e. selection of our essay in the top 6, was nothing but a dream
come true. The next stage was to come out with an appropriate Development plan from
the data BP provided us with for an unknown field in North Sea. The competition gave
me an experience to work on a real dataset. Working on such an elaborate and detailed
data, which included files from well logs to seismic information and numerous curves
and statistics involving parameters of reservoir engineering, in itself was very
challenging and at the same time thrilling because such integrated case studies aren't a
part of the curriculum. Working on the dataset gave me an insight into the jobs of a
geophysicist, geologist, petrophysicist, reservoir and production engineer. Also
keeping up with the deadline and at the same time performing well in our university
examination required hard work and dedication from all our team members.
We, the MIT Pune Team flew in early to London to participate in the EAGE FIELD
Challenge and attend the morning opening ceremony of the 75th EAGE Conference &
Exhibition incorporating SPE EUROPEC 2013, with speeches by Prince Andrew,
Duke of York and Egbert Imomoh, SPE President. Finally presenting the plan on an
international platform in front of prime industrial personnel was altogether a very
exciting experience. After all presentations had been delivered the teams were de-
briefed and given the opportunity to question the real field development plan with BP
representatives.
The Student FIELD Challenge proved to be an intense competition; we had to
manage the field development plan research on top of our Petroleum Engineering
rd
workload. We stood 3 in this competition globally and I take pride in calling a
member of such a strong team. During the months I developed those technical
qualities, which will continue to be my foundation when pursuing future endeavors
in my career aspirations.

Tuesday the 22 was D-day. We put a continuous 10-hours work from 3 pm to more
than 1 am, just stopping to fuel up with the nice midnight fuel brought by one of our
great mentors. Our mentors gave us great advice and nice ideas to improve the
involvement of all of us on the presentation. It was almost there. And after the final
rehearsal at late hours, we knew we were ready for it.
After what was the shortest night of the week, we got to QNCC with our expectations
high. But we saw great presentations from the other teams. We knew that what we had
was quite good, but we had to prove that ours deserved the top position. When the time
came, we gave a great presentation, without any mistake, finishing on time, and
managing well the questions asked by the jury. We made it happen, and we were,
according to distinguished industry leaders, the best. The results were out and we
st
stood 1 globally. Our entire team was felicitated in front of over 4300 people; it was
nothing more than a dream come true.
This will be for sure something I will not forget. I'llalways remember Doha; I'll always
remember Team 8a.
It was an outstanding experience for my career because I feel it was a wonderful
opportunity to witness some of the newest innovations, along with it being a one of a
kind experience. Interacting with the brightest students, getting a chance to listen to
the discussions of the top industry personnel & participate in them equally, was a shear
pleasure.




Subsea Engineering Education
A joint collaboration between Aker Solutions, Pune
And
Maharashtra Institute of Technology, Pune
As the number of wells in remote and hazardous environments increases, the
technologies to explore, drill, produce, and handle accidents associated with them need
to evolve to address the increased complexity and difficulty. Dependence on robotics
technologies and more sophisticated instruments is increasing. Enhancing existing
systems with greater intelligence, autonomy, and reliability should help relieve human
operators of the tedious and time-consuming aspects of operations. More-precise data
from new instruments, improved models of environmental conditions, more-capable
actuators, and greater sensory perception of these remote environments can extend
operational capabilities, improve safety and reliability, reduce the environmental
impact, and reduce costs of operations.
Subsea engineering is perhaps one of the most important, yet most difficult aspects
of the offshore petroleum industry. The underwater production environment presents
unique challenges to subsea engineers, particularly deepwater operations where
temperature, pressure and corrosion test the durability of submerged equipment and
tools. Most subsea engineering operations depend on automation and remote
procedures to construct and repair components beneath the surface of the water. The
subsea production system carries some unique aspects related to the inaccessibility
of the installation and its operation and servicing. A subsea specialization trains
offshore engineering professionals to design equipment, tools and infrastructure
utilized in offshore petroleum production.
Subsea flow assurance can be defined as the integrated management of solids (e.g.,
hydrates, paraffins, asphaltenes, scale, and sand), fluid properties, corrosion, and
operating procedures required to sustain production in a dynamic, multiphase subsea
environment. Flow-assurance design and operation become challenging in deep
water because of the combination of low temperatures, high internal hydrostatic
pressures, and economic drivers for long offsets and high availability.
Subsea Engineering provides unique opportunity to young dynamic engineers of
different disciplines to learn different aspects of subsea engineering. Aker Solutions
and Maharashtra Institute of Technology, Pune have initiated to promote awareness
and education related to subsea engineering amongst engineering students of
different discipline.
