«SHAMAN ROAD»: THE MOTIVE OF DREAM-TRAVEL IN THE NOVELS BY M. FREI
Authors: Safron E. A. , Lukashеvich M. V.
Published: November 2018

The article studies the role of the oneirosphere in the stories written by M. Frei by means of motive analysis, mythological and metaphysical method (the term by A. Beguin). The relevance of the topic is due to the low popularity of both M. Freis creativity, and the genre of fantasy itself among contemporary researchers. The novelty of the approach of M. Freis image of the oneirosphere is that the state of sleep experienced by the heroes is viewed not as passive contemplation, but as a way of actively transforming the personalities of the heroes and the world which they live in. The motive of dream-travel reflects different stages of the shamans experience of the protagonist and the characters close to him. The authors also assess the dream experienced by the heroes from the point of view of the mythological consciousness, which shaman has. The characters who travel in a dream can transfer themselves not only to another geographical point but also to another world. The motive of dream-travel can have a creative nature: heroes who see some new worlds while sleeping can embody such dreams in reality. The main hero of the stories, Sir Max, uses travel in a dream in order to pass through the next stage of initiation: he receives new magical skills. In particular, when he sleeps he spontaneously receives the ability to transfer other people to other points of space. Like a shaman, Max experiences a threat of disintegration of personality in a dream: he is pressured by other worlds, trying to lure him into them and destroy his present individual self in favor of some hypothetical future of the new self.
Secondary characters most often perform the functions of magical assistants of the protagonist: spirits-helpers, totem animals, magical donors who not only protect his current personality from disintegration, but also create the most comfortable conditions for further self-development.
HUNTERS’ SELF-PRESENTATION (BASED ON GERMAN HUNTERS’ WEB-SITES)
Authors: Bespalova Е. V.
Published: November 2018

The article deals with different ways of self-presentation of German hunters social group on the websites. The aim of the social groups self-presentation is creating of positive group image in the society realized in the virtual space through public service self-advertisement. The self-presentation of social group is regarded in a close relation to self-definition. The presentational element of discourse shows itself in the accounts of social group on the web sites. This element called presentems is realized in different text types, in different presentational entities on different levels. The effective self-presentation of the social group in the virtual space is achieved due to variability and volume of content, availability, regular updating.According to my research results, the German hunters society consolidates representatives of different ages, professions, social groups. The need of self-presentation consists in necessity of reconsideration of the social role and social tasks of the group, of its popularization in the society, of social groups viability achievement and creation of culture-significant reputation of the hunt as a form of activity and a cultural phenomenon. The hunting society regards itself as a group of nature lovers and considers environment-oriented projects to be essential. The author analyses different text types, which contain different volume of the self-presentational elements. She regards direct and indirect ways of self-presentation and describes the instruments of public service self-advertisement. The social group realizes the direct self-presentation in legal texts proclaiming juristic principles and basic philosophical concepts of the group and in statistics of modern hunters. The indirect self-presentation is realized in texts relating to news, in scientific, pedagogic, domain-specific, culture-historical texts. The positive image of the group is achieved due to positive semantics of lexical-semiotic presentems. The main strategy consists in attractive behavior that shows selection and grouping of materials placing an emphasis on modern values.
REFLECTION OF THE INNER WORLD OF A PERSON IN A CHANGED CONDITION OF HIS CONSCIOUSNESS (ON THE MATERIAL OF ARTISTIC TEXTS)
Authors: Ponomareva O. V. , Ilyukhina N. A.
Published: November 2018

The article presents, on the material of artistic texts, linguistic ways of reflecting the inner world of a person in a state of narcotic intoxication and his perception of the surrounding reality with a view to evaluating these methods from the point of view of specifics compared to methods of reflecting different types of internal state of a person which is normal in the Russian linguistic view of the world. Special attention is paid to the ways of textual reflection of certain phenomena characteristic of the state of drug intoxication: personality split-up, space duplication, hallucinations.
According to the results of the study, a conclusion is made that there are no specific methods of depicting the state of drug intoxication and the persons perception of the surrounding world in this state: in some cases, metaphorical images are used that are typical for displaying different variants of the emotional, mental, and physiological state in the Russian language world picture in others, typical ways of describing various forms of an altered state of consciousness, known to each person and widely represented in various types of discourse, are involved, including in literary texts: dreams, memories, fantasies, poor health, etc.
The analysis revealed differences in the assessment of some of the depicted aspects of perception of reality from the standpoint of the person experiencing them, and from the standpoint of the reader. In certain cases (when describing hallucinations, etc.), the means perceived by the reader as figurative (metaphorical) reflect the impressions that are real for the subject of this state, perceived by him sentimentally, in this case the corresponding means are not assessed equally by the speaker (narrator) and by the reader.
COMMUNICATIVE ASPECT IN THE PROFESSIONAL TRAINING OF PHILOLOGISTS-SPECIALISTS IN RUSSIAN PHILOLOGY
Authors: Ilyukhina N. A.
Published: November 2018

In the article the results of analysis of long-term experience of teachers of the Russian Language and Mass Communication Department of Samara National Research University on formation of professional communicative competence within the framework of a two-level system of training at preparation of bachelors and masters of Russian philology are stated. In accordance with the requirements of state-of-the-art standards of the latest generation, which contain a number of competences that have direct or indirect connection with voice communication, a two-level model of students’ education has been built in the framework of the bachelor’s program (profile «Domestic philology») and the master’s program (profile «Russian language and communication in professional sphere»). This model is based on the principle of continuity, consistently embodied both within each level, and between the levels of bachelor’s and master’s degrees. The developed and tested system of preparation of philologists is shown in detail, in which communicative competence is one of the priority ones, formed through general cultural, professional competencies and ensuring the readiness of philologists to effective professional communication. This cycle at the Bachelor and Master’s levels is subject to cycles of disciplines, which include a wide range of theoretical and practical-oriented training courses covering different aspects of communication and different spheres of professional communication: pedagogical, expert, editorial, advertising and others. Taking into account the priority position of communicative competence (especially in the framework of the above-mentioned master’s program), various active and interactive methods and techniques that develop the skills of various types of communicative activity of future specialists in the field of philology take an important place in the teaching of all academic disciplines at different stages
SAINT OLGA: HUMBLE INHABITANT OF PSKOV OR THE POWERFUL PRINCESS OF VYSHGOROD?
Authors: Korolev A. S.
Published: November 2018

The article is devoted to the problem of the origin of the Saint Olga. The author notes the contradiction in the sources, containing information on the issue. On the one hand, Olga is credited with the origin of Pskov, on the other it is presented as the owner of located near Kiev of the city of Vyshgorod. The author comes to the conclusion that we have before us two conflicting versions of the place of birth of Olga. The article analyzes the origin version of the Pskov Olga (as an option, in which Olga belongs to the local nobility, and the option when she was born in a commoner family). The result is a conclusion about the ambiguity of the Pskov version. Analysis of local legends about Olga suggests that they are not a feature of Pskov. Not less carefully analyzed all possible options of purchasing Olga in Vyshgorod. Special attention is paid to the version of the divorce of Olga and Igor, with the subsequent transfer by Igor of Vyshgorod to his ex-wife. Both this version and legends about Olgas murder of her husband are doubtful. In parallel, the issue of possessory rights of noble women in Russia in the X century is raised. The author concludes that Vyshgorod belonged to Olga by right of birth. The reasons for the emergence of legends about the origin of Olga from Pskov and participation of Oleg in arranging her marriage to Igor are explained. We must consider both that a well-fortified Vyshgorod originated in the 12-15 km to the North from Kiev and that in the X century its territory was roughly equal to the territory of the capital of ancient Russia. The establishment of the fact of origin of Princess Olga from the family owners of Vyshgorod allows new insight as to the reasons for its approval in Kiev after the death of Igor and the role of women in the political life of Russia of the middle of the X century as a whole.
FORMATION AT STUDENTS-PHILOLOGISTS OF READINESS TO CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES
Authors: Golubkov S. А.
Published: November 2018

The article is devoted to the problem of formation at students of the faculty of philology of readiness to conduct diverse cultural and educational activities. Education should not be confined to narrow technological learning objectives, but should also be open to broad general cultural education. Literary critic constantly deals with some samples (of text structure, social behaviour, personality, readers “ reception). Many of them are related to behavioural patterns. Literary text is not a closed system, it is in a dynamic connection with a number of meaningful contexts, many of which are studied by other humanities. A philologist should take into account these points of contact with related scientific disciplines, because a literary text can be of professional interest to a historian, philosopher, art historian, sociologist, psychologist. You need to be able to look at the text «through the eyes» of related professionals. This is also required by the system of competencies available in modern educational standards.The article deals with such ways of formation of student-philologist’s readiness for cultural and educational activities as diverse project work, as the choice of the most interesting from an educational point of view objects of literary study («thick» literary magazine, book series), as the traditional re-reading of the text.

Authors: Novoselova O. V. , Solovova N. V. , Nesterenko V. M.
Published: November 2018

The problem of personnel policy is actualized in professional education. The professionalism of employees of the educational organization is a strategic resource in the situation of competition between universities. A qualitative change in the functions of a University teacher in connection with innovative changes requires the organization of a system of professional development of the teaching staff on the basis of the principle of continuity.
The article presents the results of modeling the system of personnel reserve development: the content is expressed by modules adequately formed competencies of the teacher of the University; the result of preparation for management activities is described by a set of indicators, formed on the basis of the principles of competence and reflexive approaches. Practically significant are the materials of the experimental work carried out in connection with the creation of universities of the new formation (national universities, reference and flagship universities). On the basis of comparison of results of ascertaining and forming experiments the effectiveness of the developed system of professional development of the teaching staff (assistants and senior teachers under the age of 35 years) by increasing the values of the set of indicators in the structure of readiness is proved.
The article is based on the fundamental state normative documents of the Federal level, which focus on the quality of education, the integration of science and education. The study identifies the optimal conditions for human resources management.
RUSSIAN DRAMATIC PLOT OF THE XIX CENTURY AND THE ROLE OF THE HERO-CHEAT IN IT
Authors: Tyutelova L. G.
Published: November 2018

The article considers the problem of dramatic plot from the standpoint of historical poetics. On the material of the 19th century Russian drama it is proved that the plot becomes an important dramatic category of modern times. It is a method to express the author’s vision from the point which is ‘outside’ the dramatic picture as a completed and integral one as well as a way to evaluate the created dramatic world. The important point of the research is the assertion that in the modern drama the action ceases to be the main category of the dramatic poetics and the hero turns out to be important not only as an actant, due to whom the action develops and the image of the world is made, but also as ‘an eye’. He indicates the necessity of perceiving every moment of the dramatic action not form the viewpoint of its participant, but ‘form the outside’, that is from the viewpoint of the creator of the dramatic picture. The work underlines that the personage’s point of view, according to which he evaluates everything that is going on, was going on or is just potentially possible, – is individual, personal. The hero’s vision is limited by the possibilities of the personage’s character and situation. But due to his world viewpoint the reader/spectator gets an opportunity to interact – on a dialogical basis – with the author’s viewpoint as also individual, personal. A special role in proving of the suggested theses is played by the image of a pнcaro. In Gogol’s, Turgenev’s, Chekhov’s drama as the drama of modern times he is not so much a provoker providing the development of the dramatic action, supporting the dynamics of its development – as ‘an eye’. His provocations cease to be effective. The author concentrates his attention on the paradoxicality of the hero’s position, on his evaluation of his own fate, on the subtle portrayal of potentially possible variants of its development.

“Debajo de la mierda”: The Subversive Dialogue Between Nicanor Parra and David Aniñir
Authors: Collins Sandra
Published: November 2018

This article explores the common quest of ecological preservation and physical continuity in the poetry of Nicanor Parra and David Aniñir Guiltraro. Both poets employ antipoetic strategies to explore the personal and social crises that are the themes of much of their work. Aniñir's Mapurbe aesthetic is a hybrid art form that simultaneously presents itself as a continuation and a rupture with traditional Mapuche literary forms, but it also is a testament to Aniñir's own commitment to the creation of a new poetics that transcends any grand narrative in keeping with Parra's antipoetic mission. Scatological and sexual imagery are often used in the deconstruction of language and societal institutions to emphasize the importance of spiritual freedom. The article concludes that the call for direct action in both poets' work stems from a desire to contest consumerist tendencies driven by the capitalist project in Chile. Reconnecting the physical with the spiritual outside the bounds of literary convention and social order, counters understandings of the world that have been heavily influenced by the Enlightenment.

Published: November 2018

La prosecución del proceso penal por vía del acuerdo reparatorio comporta acciones influenciadas por el sentido de autoeficacia poco perceptibles a la justicia, de allí que este trabajo se plantee analizar las implicaciones de la autoeficacia del imputado dentro de la justicia penal reparadora. Su desarrollo, se inicia develando el carácter normativo impreso en las nociones de actor activo del delito y de justicia reparadora. Seguidamente, examina el carácter de los acuerdos reparatorios y su tipificación penal explicitando su naturaleza auto- compositiva, y finalmente precisa las incidencias entre la autoeficacia y el sistema de justicia penal reparador, señalando que en la reparación la autoeficacia del imputado es clave para respetar obligaciones, concluyendo que la misma evita la inobservancia de acuerdos.
Derecho penal y género
Authors: Sampedro Arrubla Camilo
Published: November 2018

La violencia de género es un fenómeno innegable, como lo es el deber del Estado de ocuparse de su prevención, mediante políticas públicas idóneas y razonables; si la política criminal y la ley penal hacen parte de la estrategia estatal contra la violencia originada contra las mujeres, su uso debe obedecer a los mismos criterios como única manera de afirmar su legitimidad; en consecuencia, la política criminal debe procurar medidas menos costosas que la criminalización de conductas y solo llegar a ellas honrando la subsidiariedad del Derecho penal y su uso como última razón de Estado. Si resulta inevitable y se decide acudir al Derecho penal en el contexto de violencia de género, debe tenerse el cuidado de no discriminar negativamente en aras de hacerlo positivamente, lesionando el principio de igualdad de la ley penal.

Published: November 2018

L’étude a été menée sur trois plantations de cèdre de l’Atlas réalisées au Djurdjura, et quatre autres dans l’Atlas blidéen, en Algérie. Celles-ci se caractérisent par un contraste écologique et par des différences liées aux méthodes de préparation et de mise en place de chaque plantation. L’objectif était de comparer, en mettant en évidence l’influence de ces conditions, la croissance en hauteur, en diamètre et radiale de ces plantations, avec quelques cédraies naturelles et artificielles d’Algérie, du Maroc et de France. L’analyse descriptive des paramètres dendrométriques a confirmé les potentialités productives du cèdre de l’Atlas et sa faculté à coloniser les zones de montagne. Cette constatation découle du taux de réussite exceptionnel déduit des inventaires. En effet, quelle que soit la plantation, le taux de réussite dépasse 80 %. L’accroissement radial annuel atteint 5,6 mm. À 34 ans, le diamètre moyen avoisine 40 cm et la hauteur dominante 16 m. Bien que les parties préservées des plantations soient une réussite, les volumes initialement reboisés sont réduits de moitié en raison du pacage. Les résultats montrent l’effet positif des cépées de chêne vert sur la reprise et la croissance des jeunes plants, ainsi que l’importance des travaux préparatifs visant à stabiliser les terrains en forte pente et à améliorer le comportement hydrique du sol (banquettes et terrasses). Bien que le cèdre croisse de manière satisfaisante en zones sèches, il apparaît plus productif en dehors de son aire de répartition naturelle, par exemple en Bretagne. Cette essence pourrait constituer une espèce d’avenir pour les reboisements et l’amélioration des peuplements en Algérie, en raison de son adaptation aux conditions de milieu difficiles (sécheresse) et de sa productivité.
Impact des perturbations anthropiques sur la diversité végétale de la subéraie de Chréa, au nord de l’Algérie
Authors: Mekideche Siham , Brakchi-Ouakour Lila , Kadik Leila
Published: November 2018

La subéraie de la réserve de biosphèrede Chréa, au nord de l’Algérie, révèle une action anthropique ayant profondément modifié le paysage végétal. Les feux récurrents et le surpâturage sont les principales perturbations des formations forestières présentes, s’agissant de perte de surface et de biomasse végétale. Notre objectif était de savoir comment, au sein de cette réserve, réagit la végétation de l’écosystème à Quercus suber L. aux conditions de milieu et aux perturbations liées à l’activité humaine. Pour y répondre, nous avons adopté une approche synchronique en réalisant 124 relevés phytoécologiques dans les différents stades dynamiques, en tenant compte de la présence ou de l’absence de la perturbation liée au pâturage. Une première analyse canonique des correspondances a porté sur les données floristiques et les variables environnementales ; une seconde concernait les attributs vitaux des espèces, en utilisant les traits de vie facilement mesurables (type biologique, stratégie adaptative de Grime, mode de dissémination). Les résultats montrent que la végétation de la subéraie s’organise le long d’un gradient de dégradation lié à l’action anthropique (incendies et pâturage), masquant l’effet des facteurs mésologiques dominants (altitude et exposition). L’approche fonctionnelle confirme cette dynamique régressive avec l’individualisation de deux groupes fonctionnels. Le premier recouvre les traits de vie « phanérophyte, compétition-stress, zoochore », caractéristiques des formations végétales les plus matures. Le second groupe englobe les traits « thérophyte, stress-rudéral, anémochore », liés aux formations ouvertes des pelouses surpâturées. Cette étude, conduite selon une approche fonctionnelle de la biodiversité, est une première évaluation de la réponse des subéraies algériennes aux perturbations anthropiques représentées par les incendies et le pâturage.
Réponses des plantules du cyprès de l’Atlas, Cupressus atlantica Gaussen, à l’inoculation de mycorhize arbusculaire en provenance de diverses origines dans l’ouest du Haut Atlas au Maroc

Published: November 2018

Le cyprès de l’Atlas, Cupressus atlantica Gaussen, est endémique stricte de l’ouest du Haut Atlas marocain. Cette espèce joue un rôle écologique et socio-économique très important dans son aire de distribution : pour produire du bois de feu, aider à protéger les sols contre l’érosion, et comme plante médicinale chez les populations locales. Malheureusement, subissant diverses pressions, principalement le surpâturage et les activités humaines excessives, l’espèce souffre d’une détérioration alarmante et de perte de territoire. La variabilité des champignons mycorhiziens arbusculaires et sa réponse à l’inoculation mycorhizienne des plantules sous serre ont été étudiées pour différentes provenances. Douze populations naturelles représentant l’aire de distribution du cyprès de l’Atlas ont été sondées, à Adebdi, Aghbar, Allous, Idni, Ighil, Ighzer, Mzouzit, Rikt, Tiouna, Taghzout, Talat N’os and Taws. L’analyse des variations des champignons mycorhiziens associés aux racines de cyprès de l’Atlas ont révélé la présence d’au moins sept morphotypes appartenant aux genres Rhizophagus, Glomus, Gigaspora et Acaulospora. Le taux de colonisation mycorhizienne dans les racines du cyprès de l’Atlas a été examiné dans son milieu naturel, montrant une variation de 25 % à 45 %. Dans les conditions sous serre, la croissance des plantules, avec ou sans inoculation avec un complexe mycrohizien, a été surveillée pour les plantules provenant des douze lieux échantillonnés. Les résultats montrent qu’en absence des champignons bénéfiques dans le substrat de culture, la croissance et la nutrition des plantules ont été hautement dépendantes de l’origine des graines. En revanche, en présence du champignon dans le substrat de culture, les paramètres de croissance et de nutrition des plantules des douze provenances ne différaient pas de manière significative. Deux groupes principaux ont été identifiés par l’analyse en composantes principales et la classification ascendante hiérarchique basées sur les caractères analysés. Le premier groupe comprend les populations de la vallée de N’Fis, à savoir Allous, Idni, Ighil, Ighzer, Mzouzit, Rikt, Talat N’os et Taws, alors que le second groupe est composé des populations du côté sud, Aghbar, Adebdi, Taghzout et Tiouna.

Drug resistance has become an extremely serious problem worldwide. Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) entering the environment with wastewaters promote replenishment of the resistome of natural microbioms. Distribution of several clinically significant ARGs in wastewaters of Rostov-on-Don (Southern Russia), lower reaches of the Don River and natural waters of the neighboring region was investigated. Metagenomic DNA samples isolated from 250 ml of wastewaters or natural waters and 200 mg of surface sediments were used for the study. Identification of the ARGs was carried out with end-point detection PCR. Presence of NDM, OXA-48, CTX-M, VanA, VanB, ErmB, and TetM/TetO genes was detected in urban wastewaters. Samples of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) sewage were enriched with ARGs in contrast to non-treated wastewaters from the sewage collector. NDM, VanA, ErmB, TetM/TetO genes were found only in wastewaters and were absent in samples of natural waters and surface sediments. Only OXA-48, VanB and CTXM genes were found in natural waters and surface sediments. The described ARGs are quite typical for urban and hospital wastewaters. The target ARGs were detected in the samples connected to the anthropogenous sources of pollution such as Rostov municipal WWTP or livestock enterprise effluents.

A balanced chromosomal translocation disrupting DISC1 (Disrupted in Schizophrenia 1) gene has been linked to psychiatric diseases, such as major depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Since the discovery of this translocation, many studies have focused on understating the role of the truncated isoform of DISC1, hypothesizing that the gain of function of this protein could be behind the neurobiology of mental conditions, but not so many studies have focused in the mechanisms impaired due to its loss of function. For that reason, we perform an analysis on the cellular proteome of primary neurons in which DISC1 was knocked down with the goal of identifying relevant pathways directly affected by DISC1 loss of function. Using an unbiased proteomic approach, we found that the expression of 31 proteins related to neurodevelopment (e.g. CRMP-2, stathmin) and synaptic function (e.g. MUNC-18, NCS-1) is regulated by DISC1 in primary mouse neurons. Hence, this study reinforces the idea that DISC1 is a unifying regulator of both neurodevelopment and synaptic function, thereby providing a link between these two key anatomical and cellular circuitries.

In this study, Li-Al-OH layered double hydroxide (LDH), which was prepared by solvent-free one-step mechanochemical reaction of LiOH and Al(OH)3, was applied to remove boron from aqueous solution. Dry-grinding for 3 h at a rotational speed of 500 rpm, Li/Al molar 1/2 was the optimum condition to prepare highly crystalline of Li-Al LDH phase with no evident impure phases. Two milling products with Li/Al molar ratio at 1/2 and 2/2 were evaluated for boron adsorption. The results confirmed that Li/Al molar ratio 2/2 sample showed high boron adsorption capacity due to the physical adsorption of Li-Al-OH LDH and chemical synergism of phase gel Al(OH)3. The adsorption isotherms, described by the Langmuir model, indicated maximum monolayer boron uptake capacity 45.45 mg/g, implying competitive adsorption capacity of the material in our experiment.

The phase behavior of heavy-oil/propane mixtures was mapped from temperatures ranging from 20 to 180°C and pressures up to 10 MPa. Both vapor/liquid (VL1) and liquid/liquid (L1L2) regions were observed. Saturation pressures (VL1 boundary) were measured in a Jefri 100-cm3 pressure/volume/temperature (PVT) -cell and blind-cell apparatus. The propane content at which a light propane-rich phase and a heavy bitumen-rich (or pitch) phase formed (L1/L1L2 boundary) was visually determined with a high-pressure microscope (HPM) while titrating propane into the bitumen. High-pressure and high-temperature yield data were measured using a blind-cell apparatus. Here, yield is defined as the mass of the indicated component(s) in the pitch phase divided by the mass of bitumen in the feed. A procedure was developed and used to measure propane-rich-phase and pitch-phase compositions in a PVT cell.

Pressure/temperature and pressure/composition phase diagrams were constructed from the saturation-pressure and pitch-phase-onset data. High-pressure micrographs demonstrated that, at lower temperatures and propane contents, the pitch phase appeared as glassy particles, whereas at higher propane contents and temperatures, it appeared as a liquid phase. Ternary diagrams were also constructed to present phase-composition data. The ability of a volume-translated Peng-Robinson cubic equation of state (CEOS) (Peng and Robinson 1976) to match the experimental measurements was explored. Two sets of binary-interaction parameters were tested: temperature-dependent binary-interaction parameters (SvdW) and composition-dependent binary-interaction parameters (CDvdW). Models derived from both types of binary-interaction parameters matched the saturation pressures and the L1L2 boundaries at one pressure but could not match the pressure dependency of the L1L2 boundary or the measured L1L2 phase compositions. The SvdW model could not match the yield data, whereas the CDvdW model matched yields at temperatures up to 90°C.

The artificial lift strategy of an asset is driven by technical and economic factors. Production challenges associated with the exploitation of unconventional plays have become a key factor when planning for a life time solution. Inherent flow instabilities associated with the production of unconventional shale wells should be taken into consideration during the production and optimization of the well. Transient simulation is adopted to gain insights into dynamic flow mechanisms and consequently design for a customized tail pipe system for the life of the well.

This paper describes a case study where a Horizontal Enhanced Artificial Lift (HEAL) System is implemented together with a rod pump as the artificial lift strategy for an unconventional shale asset in the US. Dynamic transient simulation was conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of the system in significantly suppressing slug flow by conditioning flow through a regulating string and separating gas from the well stream before it reaches the installed artificial lift system. Comprehensive engineering scenarios are set up to analyze the effect of production parameters on the HEAL System design against conventional production approaches, where equipment run life is compromised due to unstable flow conditions and consequently the amount of gas and/or solids that are produced through the pump.

The combination of transient simulation with artificial lift demonstrates that the HEAL System is a suitable solution for the production challenges associated with unconventional reservoirs. Extending the life of the equipment allows the well to produce at a lower bottomhole pressure and manage slug flow. The solution can be extended to unconventional places where unstable production due to reservoir pressure depletion is a dominant factor.
A Holistic Approach in Establishing a Structured Framework to Maximize Production Availability Through an Integrated ESP Key Performance Indicators

Managing large-scale Electrical Submersible Pump (ESP) operations and assessing their performance can be a challenging task. Diverse operational environments, widely-spread geographical areas, large ESP populations, and different service providers are some of the complications facing operators. Nonetheless, it is vital to the success of any artificial lift project to establish a performance evaluation structure that can effectively capture deficiencies and highlight improvements.

While many operators focus on run life statistics as the central key performance indicator (KPI) for ESPs, these type of statistics may not be sufficient in providing meaningful information to decision makers. Other important ESP performance parameters include ESP shutdowns (both planned and unplanned), restart time of tripped ESPs, commissioning time, failure rate, and the number of premature ESP failures. Thus, a comprehensive study was jointly initiated between an oil operator and ESP vendors to establish KPIs that drive improvements in all aspects. The selected KPIs were developed in a structure that ultimately focuses on maximizing production availability and revenue generation.

By constructing the ESP KPIs framework, subpar performance areas were clearly visible by both the operator and the service provider. Decision makers were able to identify and act on fields that lag in performance while exerting efforts to improve underperforming service providers. Furthermore, regular meetings were conducted to review the established KPIs and recommend some action items, which might focus on either technical or operational solutions. Finally, KPI targets were set based on the review of historical trends and were assigned to be challenging yet relevant and attainable. The followed practice can prove to be successful in forming a common ground where service providers can quantify losses by the operator as a result of ESP performance deficiencies.

Comprehensive data collection and keeping of ESP trips, failures, and replacements are critical to the success of this work. Regular review of field reports and well performance are imperative to accurately compute the various KPI formulas. In fact, many of the KPI calculations can be automated to capitalize on the available communication networks installed in the field to improve ESP monitoring and accurately assess their performance.
