Identity work and face work across linguistic and cultural boundaries
Authors: Joseph John E. 
Published: April 2015

AbstractIdentity and face are each an imagining of the self, or of another, within a public sphere involving multiple actors. Because they have come into language and discourse research from different directions, researchers frame them in such a way that they can seem only tangentially related. This article examines what binds and distinguishes them, by approaching a set of conversational data – all from Scotland, yet crossing perceived cultural and linguistic boundaries – from the point of view of both the face work and the identity work undertaken by the participants. Identity and face are often taken as representing durative and punctual ways of looking at the same phenomena. Yet explanations of punctual actions and events always have recourse to durative characteristics of those who perform them; and evidence for those durative characteristics is drawn from the punctual actions and events interpreted as embodying and indexing them. This complexity is multiplied by that of the different scales on which face and identity are observed and indexed.
“Mind your own esteemed business”: Sarcastic honorifics use and impoliteness in Korean TV dramas
Authors: Brown Lucien 
Published: April 2015

AbstractHonorifics have traditionally been analyzed as markers of “deference” and have been connected with positive values such as “respect”, “dignity” and “elegance”. However, in this paper, I demonstrate that these readings only apply to normative and stereotypical patterns of honorifics use. When applied in other contexts, where their use is not normally expected, honorifics take on different social meanings, including sarcasm. Through the analysis of Korean television dramas, I show that sarcastic applications of honorifics may be applied both for “mock” impoliteness and “genuine” face-threatening impoliteness. Although these sarcastic usages occur most frequently between intimates (i.e., where the use of honorifics is marked), there also exist devices for being sarcastic towards adult strangers (even though in such contexts honorifics may be considered unmarked and normative). Crucially, my examples demonstrate that honorifics may communicate sarcasm in and of themselves. This sarcastic meaning is strongest when honorifics are applied in ways that remains “relevant”; in other words, when they make reference to knowledge or social norms shared by the community of practice. The findings confirm once and for all that honorifics are not “deferential” in an absolute sense. More broadly, the paper clarifies the position of sarcasm and irony within impoliteness theory.
‘Maybe she just hasn’t matured yet’: Politeness, gate-keeping and the maintenance of status quo in a community of practice
Authors: Clark Jodie 
Published: April 2015

AbstractPoliteness research has much to offer work that explores the complexities of gate-keeping in a community of practice. In this article I draw upon principles and terminology from politeness research to explore the tension that arises when members of a particular community of practice (a university field hockey team) who are morally opposed to homosexuality are confronted with the fact that some of their teammates are openly gay. This line of investigation relies upon a redefinition of politeness2: I define politeness2 as the moral compulsion to respect the boundaries around different levels of social structure, which include (but are not limited to) sets of attitudes, perspectives and priorities. In the hockey players’ community of practice, two moral priorities are in conflict: an aversion to homosexuality on the one hand, and a desire for a friendly, socially inclusive club on the other. I investigate the various evaluative resources participants draw upon/produce in this community, which include evaluation schemes based upon the labels “rude” and “im/mature”. I claim that the label “im/mature” – and concepts related to this label – function in this community as a means of concealing the conflict between the two moral priorities and maintaining a commitment to both.
Ancestral Relationships Using Metafounders: Finite Ancestral Populations and Across Population Relationships
Authors: Legarra Andres , Christensen Ole F , Vitezica Zulma G , Aguilar Ignacio , Misztal Ignacy 
Published: April 2015

Abstract
Recent use of genomic (marker-based) relationships shows that relationships exist within and across base population (breeds or lines). However, current treatment of pedigree relationships is unable to consider relationships within or across base populations, although such relationships must exist due to finite size of the ancestral population and connections between populations. This complicates the conciliation of both approaches and, in particular, combining pedigree with genomic relationships. We present a coherent theoretical framework to consider base population in pedigree relationships. We suggest a conceptual framework that considers each ancestral population as a finite-sized pool of gametes. This generates across-individual relationships and contrasts with the classical view which each population is considered as an infinite, unrelated pool. Several ancestral populations may be connected and therefore related. Each ancestral population can be represented as a “metafounder,” a pseudo-individual included as founder of the pedigree and similar to an “unknown parent group.” Metafounders have self- and across relationships according to a set of parameters, which measure ancestral relationships, i.e., homozygozities within populations and relationships across populations. These parameters can be estimated from existing pedigree and marker genotypes using maximum likelihood or a method based on summary statistics, for arbitrarily complex pedigrees. Equivalences of genetic variance and variance components between the classical and this new parameterization are shown. Segregation variance on crosses of populations is modeled. Efficient algorithms for computation of relationship matrices, their inverses, and inbreeding coefficients are presented. Use of metafounders leads to compatibility of genomic and pedigree relationship matrices and to simple computing algorithms. Examples and code are given.
Continuous Multi-exponential Method for Analyzing Transient Photoconductivity in Amorphous Oxide Semiconductors
Authors: Luo Jiajun , Grayson Matthew 
Published: April 2015

ABSTRACTAmorphous oxide semiconductors (AOS) are promising candidate materials for thin film transistors in display devices, but one major challenge for mass application is their instability under illumination. In this work, a theoretical method for analyzing transient photoconductivity response in such AOS thin films is reviewed, namely the continuous multi-exponential model. This model can deduce a continuous distribution of decay time constants representing activation energy levels in an AOS, and is shown to reliably reproduce a model of density of states (DOS) of mid-gap traps assumed to be responsible for the transient photoconductivity. Provided the data collection time is sufficiently long, the continuous multi-exponential model was verified to reconstruct the modeled continuous DOS spectrum, thus providing a powerful tool to analyze photoresponse in AOS. This method has the advantage that no prior assumptions about the form of the density of states are needed, but the drawback that long data collection times are required for the transient to be fully relaxed.

High-Octane Leadership in Times of Uncertainty
Authors: MacArthur John 
Published: April 2015

YEPP PerSPEctive - John MacArthur shares his thoughts on leadership.
Humanity has always faced tough challenges. These challenges remain daunting. According to Jessica Williams' book 50 Facts That Should Change the World, one in five people in the world live on less than U.S. $1 per day and about the same proportion, some 800 million people, go hungry daily. Williams explains that in recent years, a third of the world's population has been at war, with a quarter of all armed conflicts involving a struggle for natural resources such as oil, minerals, metals, water, timber, and drug crops. The good news is that our industry can help tackle these problems; a secure supply of energy is critical to peaceful economic growth and a stable development environment.
Global energy demand grew by more than 4% last year, exceeding 10 billion tons of oil equivalent (approximately 73 billion bbl) for the first time, and according to Intl. Energy Agency (IEA) projections, this could increase by more than half over the next quarter century. We will still rely on hydrocarbons, with 60% of demand to be met by oil and gas by 2030.
Public Energy Education

Forum - Young professionals speak out on energy education.
For this article, The Way Ahead addressed one of the most challenging topics for professionals in the oil and gas industry: public energy education. When oil prices peaked at USD 147/bbl in 2008, everyone felt the crunch. Food prices spiked and transportation costs rose. Global warming and the environmental impact of energy use took center stage in the public debate. Yet, media coverage, public debate, and politicians still seem to lack a fundamental understanding of where energy comes from, the costs and trade-offs related to different energy sources, technological and geographic constraints, and the hard choices that lie ahead. This article illustrates that industry professionals feel a responsibility to educate their friends, family, and neighbors, and students of all ages about energy.
Emerging Oil and Gas Regions: Brazil, the Arctic, and West Africa

What's Ahead - Anthony Onukwu previews articles on emerging oil and gas regions.
Welcome to the first issue of 2011. As always, we are looking ahead and, in this issue, TWA brings you another interesting theme, with some exciting articles on emerging oil and gas regions.
When German scientist Alfred Wegener put forward the idea that the geographic fit of the western coast of Africa and the eastern coast of South America had once been joined together in the geological past. Most people would have thought it was a myth, but advances in marine geology over the next 40 years led to the recognition that the two continents had separated at the end of the Jurassic and the very beginning of the Cretaceous periods by a process of rifting and oceanic suturing. Today, deepwater Brazil is the rising star in the Western Hemisphere for the oil and gas industry after the offshore finds in pre-salt, and deepwater west Africa—also with salt body structures—has achieved huge success in recent years. The number of fields is expected to increase fivefold by 2013. It is the immense promise of the giant deepwater “elephant” fields that is fueling the current boom in exploration and development and raising the levels of investment in these regions.
Leveraging Technology to Win in the Deepwater Gulf of Mexico Wilcox Plays
Authors: Rawicki Andrew 
Published: April 2015

Tech 101 - Leveraging technology to win in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico Wilcox plays.
The focus of my past few years has been on a technology-driven play in the Lower Tertiary-Age reservoirs of the deepwater Gulf of Mexico (GOM). These Upper, Middle, and Lower Wilcox reservoirs represent a large resource base in an infrastructure-rich basin. Chevron-operated production will begin from the Wilcox reservoir in 2014, when the company’s Jack/St Malo subsea development is commissioned. In addition, Chevron’s two most recent deepwater GOM discoveries have been in the Wilcox, and the company continues to hold a very strong lease position for future exploration.
Technology Management System Across Chevron: The “Focus Area” Model
Like most integrated energy companies, Chevron has evolved a system of technology governance that suits the enterprise. To ensure the technologies critical to providing competitive differentiation are identified and advanced, the company developed a “focus area” model. Decisions are made by governance bodies composed jointly of energy technology company (ETC) and operating company representatives. Strategic drivers are identified and validated for the various Technology Focus Areas (such as exploration, reservoir management, or deepwater development), and technology initiatives are funded on the basis of a technology’s risk/reward profile and its alignment with the strategic drivers. These initiatives are managed by technology practitioners within ETC, ensuring that the technologies that are developed and the lessons learned coincident with early deployment are easily shared throughout the enterprise. Business units are allocated their fair share of the cost to develop each technology, and most development projects managed within the focus area process contribute to the common good (or at least the good of a significant sector) of the corporation.
Getting to the Next Promotion
Authors: Ware Sonya 
Published: April 2015

Soft Skills - How to prepare yourself for your next promotion.
Sometime in the first 5 years of your career, you may be getting a promotion. However, before a promotion takes place, you have to begin to walk as if you are already performing at the next level. This shouldn’t be because of self-entitlement, but rather a frame of mind, a way of being that trains others to see you at the next level. Ultimately, you are subtly branding yourself as being the next manager by exemplifying qualities seen in the next level, which includes performance. Below are some ways to do this in your day-today work.
Deliver beyond expectations.
Have you ever purchased a sandwich and a drink only to be called back to the counter because the price also included a bag of chips or a cookie? It is a good feeling. You think to yourself, “This is a good value and I am pleasantly surprised.”
As you deliver your work, presentations, or reports, always give a little extra. If the request is for A, B, and C, think beyond this and include D and maybe even E. I once had a team member in a leadership team who embodied this way of being. I would ask her to extract data from a system so that I could evaluate it. She would give me the data in record time and share her analysis of the data: trends, categories, and observations. As you can imagine, this saved me a ton of time and gave me a starting point that I didn’t expect.
Current Research and Challenges Pertaining to CO2 Flooding and Sequestration

CO2 Enhanced Oil Recovery: Background
With 50% to 65% of the original oil in place (OOIP) remaining in many reservoirs after primary and secondary recovery, more operators and governments are considering the use of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes as an opportunity whose time has come. Additionally, in the face of global warming, the prospect of CO2 sequestration has arisen with the potential of sequestering large quantities of CO2 in depleted oil fields as a means of preventing its release into the atmosphere.
The concept of injecting gas into a formation to stimulate recovery of residual oil is not new. Successful laboratory gas-injection experiments generated a lot of optimism in the 1950s, but by the 1970s field experiments yielded only moderate recoveries of 5% to 10% of the remaining OOIP. Viscous fingering, solvent channeling, and reservoir heterogeneity were found to be the main culprits for the disappointing field performance. Early efforts were directed at developing methods to “improve” the injected gas’s mobility and volumetric sweep efficiency, and included the water-alternating-gas (WAG) process, using foaming agents and polymers. Much of these research efforts continue today in universities and other research laboratories. One concern, however, is that the research favors modeling work rather than experimental development of new concepts and processes.
Interview with Aidan Heavey

The Way Ahead Interview - Interview with Aidan Heavey, Chief Executive Officer, Tullow Oil
What was your first job in the oil and gas industry, and what were your first impressions of the industry when you began working in it?
My first job in the industry was starting up Tullow, which was very different from my previous jobs. The global aspect of the business, the opportunity to become involved in operations around the world, and the chance to meet fascinating people in doing so were the things that first excited me about the industry.
What made you decide to start Tullow Oil?
My background was not in engineering. I was an accountant before I decided upon a change of career. Back in the 1980s the oil industry grew fast before the oil price collapse. The North Sea was in full swing and many small oil companies were starting up in Ireland. It was similar to the dotcom boom during the late 1990s. Oil and gas seemed like an exciting industry, and setting up Tullow was the way for me to get involved. In 1985, I spoke with a friend in London about exploration fields in Africa that big companies were abandoning because they were discovering gas rather than oil. One of these was a gas field in Senegal discovered by SAP (Société Africaine de Pétrole). This particular field was connected to a power station. Following negotiations with the Senegalese government, the lease was then granted to us and from there Tullow was born.
