Prospects for Marine Minerals in the US Pacific OCS and EEZ
Authors: McConnell D. R. 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
The seafloor in the US Pacific OCS and EEZ is enriched to varying degrees in critical and economically important minerals such as nickel, manganese, cobalt, copper, zinc, REY (rare earth elements plus yttrium), titanium, vanadium, antimony, gold, and silver. These mineral deposits take the form of polymetallic nodules on the seabed, cobalt rich ferromanganese crusts on seamounts and ridges swept clean of sediment accumulation, and seafloor massive sulfides formed by hydrothermal systems at geologic plate spreading centers and volcanic margins. Each of these mineral deposits form on or near the deep ocean seafloor where water depths are typically 4000 m to 5500 m and on the seamounts and volcanic arcs that rise from these depths. Commercial interest in deep sea mineral deposits and the potential for collecting or mining them began in earnest in the 1970s but has been heightened in the last 20 years as the international framework for developing these minerals in International Waters has matured that has coincided with forecasted rapid rising demand for minerals to supply energy and manufacturing needs for the green economy. Compilation reports published by academia, government, and private companies are reviewed to assemble data and assess the prospects for deep sea marine minerals in the US Pacific OCS and EEZ. Key compilations were made by the Circum-Pacific Council and USGS in the 1980s and 1990s. These, together with recent (2023) efforts by USGS to compile geochemical data from USGS affiliated marine research sampling cruises from the 1980s and 1990s, historical data maintained by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), and recent publicly disclosed results from ISA contractors are used to inform the known occurrence and prospectivity for polymetallic nodules, cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts, and seafloor massive sulfides in the US Pacific OCS and EEZ.

Abstract
The utilization of CO2-carbonated water-alternating-gas (CWAG) has been extensively studied as an EOR technology, demonstrating significant promise in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS). The objective of our work is to create a reliable and precise machine learning model and optimization workflow that optimizes operation parameters and accurately predicts production levels, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the CWAG process.
Following the development of the reservoir numerical model with typical numerical simulation software, this study proceeded to build up 5000 distinct numerical models. Each of these models was characterized by varying reservoir geology parameters, fluid parameters, initial conditions, as well as operation parameters. To assess the performance of the reservoir numerical models, cumulative oil production and carbon storage were calculated as prediction and evaluation indicators. A training set comprising 70% of the available data was utilized, while the remaining 30% served as the evaluation set. This division ensured a robust evaluation of the machine learning regression methods employed in the study. Then seven regression machine learning methods was applied to conduct the analysis, enabling a thorough examination of the dataset, and facilitating the training and evaluation processes. Following the evaluation process, the XGBoost algorithm achieved the best prediction performance among all methods. Building upon this finding, an efficient and reliable optimization workflow was developed by integrating the trained XGBoost model with a hybrid genetic algorithm. The workflow aimed to enhance the efficiency and accuracy in optimizing various parameters related to the CO2-WAG operation process.
This coupling workflow facilitates the swift optimization of parameters pertaining to CO2-WAG flooding in field development design, as well as the prediction of production outcomes under diverse geological conditions. The objective is to achieve high oil recovery and carbon storage efficiency simultaneously. By incorporating a broader range of factors into consideration, the XGBoost model demonstrates an impressive accuracy rate of 98%. This significant improvement in accuracy highlights the superiority of the XGBoost model over traditional numerical simulation methods.
The research workflow and optimization workflow developed in this study exhibit good extensibility, making them applicable to a wide range of EOR methods beyond CO2-WAG. They can be effectively utilized for the prediction and optimization of water flooding, chemical flooding, and other EOR techniques.
Blowout Contingency Decision-Making Leveraging Pressure Modeling: Cap-And-Restrain or Cap-And- Divert?
Authors: Khouissat Abdelhakim , Michael Andreas 
Published: April 2024

AbstractAfter the MC 252-1 "Macondo Well" blowout on April 20, 2010, in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM), notable efforts were placed on subseawell capping and containment in order to enhance the industry’s response to an offshore-blowout event. The thrust of this paper is the important role that the accurate modeling and monitoring of the reservoir pressure can play in determining the best practice to kill a blown well. A novel workflow is presented for supporting blowout contingency by assisting decision-making across different postblowout intervention strategies integrating reservoir simulation, wellbore mechanics, and the surface equipment’s operating limits.Due to the unique set of challenges for each blowout, a well-intervention method that proved effective in one scenario might not be the optimal for the next—it could lead to failure, or be unimplementable. Proper response to a well-control event of this type is divided into two broad categories. The first category is cap-and-restrain, which requires forward-modeling of the wellbore pressure buildup, identifying the critical post-blowout-discharge-flowrate value, above which it is safe to shut-in the capping stack (CS). The second category is cap-and-divert, which requires the CS to be partially or completely opened with the flow being diverted to an external storage unit. This is done after confirming that the well has sufficient integrity to handle the backpressure of the controlled discharge.This work focuses on the methods and processes planned to contain a subsea blowout either by "cap-and-restrain" or by "cap-and- divert" using an innovative workflow coupled with a generic, multi-purpose, three-dimensional (3D), two-phase (water/oil), reservoir simulator, "Program for Integrated Modeling of Petroleum Systems" (PIMPS3D2P). Once the feasibility of subsea-capping-stack deployment and landing is evaluated, the implementation of a well-kill procedure becomes vital for reaching the static well conditions required. Our innovative workflow has been successfully applied to the Macondo Well’s blowout scenario.

ABSTRACT.
Extralymphatic filariasis caused by filaria of zoonotic origins has been frequently reported in Thailand over recent years. Here, we report the first case of ocular filariasis in a 7.5-year-old Thai boy who initially presented with progressive conjunctival redness and blurred vision in his right eye. A small, slender, coiled worm was found and surgically removed from the right anterior chamber. Histopathological examination illustrated predominant eosinophilic inflammation surrounding the parasite, which showed smooth and thin cuticle, prominent lateral chords, flat and broad muscle cells, one intestine, and two reproductive tubes with unsegmented ova, typically characteristic of a female adult Brugia filarial nematode. The parasite was also molecularly identified as B. pahangi, based on mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequence analysis. The patient was then empirically prescribed albendazole, systemic prednisolone, and topical methylprednisolone. Unfortunately, his vision did not recover after 2 months due to severe maculopathy, most likely resulting from parasitic infestation and subsequent vitreous inflammation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of ocular infestation by B. pahangi with visual complications that occurred outside a filariasis-endemic area of Thailand. Furthermore, this report provides clinical data on preceding cases of B. pahangi filariasis formally reported in southeast Asian countries, including Thailand and Malaysia, which facilitate a better understanding of the epidemiology of this sporadic zoonotic infection for effective disease elimination.

Published: April 2024

This study aimed at developing an instructional unit in Arabic language based on literary awareness and test its effectiveness on developing the skills of literary appreciation among second year scientific secondary school students in Jordan. The participants of the study consisted of (80) female students from the second year of scientific secondary school at Al-Baqa’a Comprehensive Secondary School for Girls. The sections were randomly assigned into two groups, so that Division (C) represented the experimental group that was taught using the developed unit, and Division (A) represented the control group that studied using the usual way.
To achieve the objectives of the study, the unit was developed, the literary appreciation test was prepared, and the test was applied to the two groups before and after teaching, as the experimental and control group studied for (20) days in the second semester of the academic year (2021/2022), and the results of the statistical analysis showed the absence of statistically significant differences in literary appreciation skills between the experimental and control groups on the pre-test among students of the second grade of scientific secondary school in Jordan, and the existence of statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups in the literary appreciation test in favor of the experimental group attributed to the development of the unit based on literary awareness. In light of the results the study recommended conducting more studies on the development of academic units in other branches of Arabic language, with the concern of curriculum makers in the inclusion of literary awareness in the Arabic language.

Published: April 2024

The study focused on the e-learning experiences of blind students at King Saud University during Coved-19 pandemic. The study goal was to increase awareness about the appropriate course design for blind students in particular. The study tried to understand five elements (The reality of teaching academic achievement student interaction, student's communication, best education for blind students). A qualitative methodology was used to understand the e-learning experiences of blind students. The researcher used a snowball sample that included five male undergraduate students. An interview was used for data collection and thematic analysis to describe the data. The results also showed that the students faced difficulty in e-learning due to the visual tasks that require fast interaction during online lectures. Students' achievement was lower and communication depended on the course's teachers. The format of the educational content was one of the biggest challenges that participants emphasized because it was incompatible with the screen reader program. Study recommendations of the study were: providing activities appropriate to the abilities of students with visual disabilities in the e-learning environment.

Costureira de uma cidade do interior do norte do Paraná, Jardelina da Silva gritava nas ruas com a missão de “salvar o mundo”. A cada aparição, criava uma nova vestimenta, fazendo-se fotografar no estúdio local. No total, são mais de 200 imagens, realizadas durante anos. A partir desse material, das entrevistas gravadas e das publicações em jornais e revistas, criei - apropriando-me de suas realizações - o ‘Museu Jardelina’, que vem sendo veiculado como parte de minha própria obra como artista.
E lhe foi mandado passar o presente diploma... (o Grupo Acre esteve aqui)
Authors: Sabino Isabel 
Published: April 2024

Após os anos 60, a abertura nas páticas artísticas com abolição de regras, ampliação de conceitos, desmaterialização de objetos, desvio dos lugares convencionais de exposição e, finalmente, a ideia de qualquer pessoa poder ser artista, acaba por criar uma espécie de contra-tendência “ordenadora” que, partindo da crítica institucional, age como reforço da legitimação posta em risco. Entre casos de certificados que atestam a autoria artística e constituem obra, o nosso foco aponta os diplomas do Grupo Acre (colectivo artístico português ativo entre 1974 e 1977) que operam na identificação do próprio artista.
