Published: March 2024

Background: Using a multidisciplinary team is a natural progression in cancer care, reflecting the gains achieved by many professions and disciplines and the use of various therapeutic modalities and patient support.

Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of endometrial cancer, related risk factors, management, and follow-up before and after multidisciplinary team care (MDTC).

Methods: This cross-sectional observational study was conducted on 186 patients with endometrial cancer confirmed by endometrial biopsy cytology (endometrioid/non-endometrioid type). Patient data on clinical, surgical, pathological, and adjuvant therapies were collected, including age, body mass index (BMI), surgical procedure, nodal staging, and final pathological analysis. Assessment of risk factors and clinical follow-up was done by the MDTC method.

Results: The patient’s age at menstruation was >12 years in 151 (83.9%) patients and <12 years in 29 (16.1%) patients. No significant difference was observed between the two groups in examining cancer and evaluating risk factors. However, the evaluations in the MTC group were associated with minor changes in order to improve and manage risk factors.

Conclusions: The MDTC can be effective in the overall management of endometrial cancer.

Published: March 2024

This study examined how board independence and female directors (i.e., women in leadership) affected the performance of Malaysian small-cap firms. Small-cap firms trading on the Bursa Malaysia ACE (Access, Certainty Efficiency) market were the subject of this study due to the less strict listing standards imposed on them than large-listed firms. The 2012-2014 annual reports of firms listed on the ACE market were downloaded through the Bursa Malaysia website and the required data was hand-collected. The hypotheses were tested using quantile regression (QR). The data reveal that board independence and firm performance are unrelated unless company performance is in the 0.10 quantile. Board independence has a negative impact on business performance at the 0.10 quantile. Similarly, the connection between women directors and business success was negative in the lower quintiles particularly in the 0.10 and 0.30 quantiles. Nevertheless, in other quantiles, board independence and the presence of female directors on firm performance were not associated. The significance of the study lies in the possibility that small firms might find it excessively expensive to comply with the Malaysian Code of Corporate Governance (MCCG). This study examines the hitherto ignored roles of board independence and women directors in small-cap enterprises on firm performance.

Published: March 2024

Background: The present investigation was carried out to study the “productive and reproductive performance” of Indigenous Milch Cows reared under Gaushalas. This study describes productive and reproductive performance of milch cows through onsite observation and interviews with structured questionnaires of 30 (no.) Gaushalas randomly selected from 10 districts of Haryana. Methods: The total 30 Gaushala in 10 districts of Haryana were studied, which were rearing more than 34,279 indigenous cows (mostly Hariana and Sahiwal cow). These Gaushalas were divided into three categories based on the total number of animals present in Gaushalas as small (100-500 animals), medium (501-1000 animals) and large size Gaushalas ( greater than 1000 animals). To assess the productive performance of the milch cows, milk yield per day (MY/D), lactation length (LL) and lactation yield (LY) were utilized as indicator traits. In addition, age at first calving (AFC), service period (SP), number of services per conception (NSPC) and calving interval (CI) were considered as an indicator of the reproductive performance traits. Result: It was observed that the average milk yield per day and lactation yield in large size gaushala were significantly (P less than 0.05) higher than the medium size Gaushalas and small size Gaushalas. Large Gaushalas had a significantly higher lactation length (P less than 0.05) than small size Gaushala. The average service period, number of services per conception and calving interval in large size Gaushalas were significantly (P less than 0.05) lower as compared to small size Gaushalas. From the above finding, it could be concluded that the productive and reproductive performance were better in large size Gaushalas.

Published: March 2024

Background: Hepatotoxicity is an adverse complication in 5-Fluorouracil cancer treatment. Inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis and DNA damage are essential in the pathogenesis of liver damage. The present study evaluated the ameliorative effect of Naringenin (NG) in 5-FU at two different intervals in hepatic damage. Methods: Total (n=48) Albino Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups (N=12), Control-normal saline (group-1) per oral, 5-FU (group-2) @ 20 mg/kg b.wt was injected intraperitoneal (IP) for first 5 days, NG (group-3) @100 mg/kg b. wt/day orally for 28 days. Another group-4 was concurrently treated with NG along with 5-FU for 28 days and sacrificed on the 14th and 28th day of the experiment. Result: On exposure to 5-FU, biochemical variation of liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP and TP) were significantly increased while NG treatment significantly reduced these biomarkers in group 2 on 14th day and 28th day of the experiment. Furthermore, NG treatment significantly reduced lipid peroxidation and increases the antioxidant profile. It also significantly reduced elevated concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines like tumour necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin -1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6) with increased concentrations of interleukin-10 (IL-10) along with reduced immunohistochemical expression of nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) and Caspases -3 (Cas-3) by NG. On histopathology, pathological lesions were observed to support biochemical variations in group-2 rats. In group-4 rats, NG ameliorates liver enzymes, inflammatory cytokines and oxidative indices through an anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic property.

Published: March 2024

<p>Type the Arab Springs and the rise of Daesh in Syria and Iraq gave the niqabi women a special stand and visibility they never had before. Some niqabis women became visible sharing during the demonstrations calling for justice and social changes, others who believe in the Salafi jihadi trend were intensely mediatised due to their implication, next to Daesh, in tortures and bomb attacks. The civil societies in Egypt and Indonesia started to shape new calls to ban niqâb and presented it as a danger for the country. In both countries’ controversy has raised among Islamic mass organizations and universities. The Salafi doctrine which control women to cover the body including the face have increased in Egypt by the 70’ and in Indonesia during the 90’. It has entailed deep socio-religious norms’ transformations in both countries, with different impacts. This research focuses on how niqabis negotiate their modern identities in Indonesia and Egypt. It employs mixed method and uses surveys, in-depth interview (life stories), and focus group discussion. This paper would like to expose some results of those investigations happened in Indonesia and Egypt from June to November 2018. <strong></strong></p>

Abstract
In November 2021, the overall injection in this ADNOC Onshore field had dropped to its lowest ever level at 506 mbd. As production growth was expected over the next 5 years drastic steps needed to be taken to not only increase the water injection (WI) capacity but also improve the operations efficiency. This paper will provide details of how the asset achieved this as well as ended up doubling the injection volumes within 24 months.
There were 3 different methods where injection capacity could not only be increased but also sustained. These were adding new WI clusters (WIC), enhancing the capacity of existing clusters and improving the operational efficiency (OE). New WICs were already planned through existing ongoing Projects. Following close coordination between the Subsurface and Field Electrical Submersible Pumps (ESP) teams it was decided to do a proactive changeout of existing ESPs in water supply wells (WSW). Lastly OE was tackled through enhanced surface level agreement (SLA) with Drilling for well shut-in requirements, efficient replacement of failed ESPs in WSW's as well as quick repairs of flowline leaks, surface pumps and other operational issues.
7 new WICs were added between 2021 and 2023 through existing projects which added approximately ~175 mbd of capacity. Out of these all 7 WIC's have been commissioned and currently 6 are online. 2 WSW ESPs were proactively changed out by adding new ESP with higher capacity and more stages and this added ~20 mbd of capacity. The entire SLA was renegotiated with Drilling and was based on simulation modeling, interference testing followed by trials in pilot wells, and this added approximately ~20 mbd to overall OE. Previously, it would take 4-6 weeks to replace a failed ESP, and this was seen as an improvement opportunity and following close coordination between Subsurface, Operations and ESP team this time was reduced by 50% to 2-3 weeks. Lastly, the Operations team helped to deliver the largest OE improvement through effective management of repairs of flowline leaks, surface pump failures as well as other repairs. Overall, these changes resulted in the Field injecting over 1,000,000 bwpd with 24 months of record lows.
On average, one WIC was down every day due to flowline leaks. This was not sustainable, and a Leak detection task force was established to manage this. Instead of doing sectional flowline repairs, entire lengths were replaced. "Quick leak repair" methodology was developed and utilized in the Field. Lastly, successful pilots of using reinforced thermoplastic (RTP) flowlines were started in the Field and these are currently in evaluation phase with full field deployment expected soon. As a result of these changes flowlines leaks were reduced by over 50% and helped improve OE significantly.
Circularity & Decarbonization at A Seawater Injection System in the Oil & Gas Industry

Published: March 2024

The sea water injection department has a clear mission, which can be summarized in four main items: treat, transport, inject, and sustain. Let's take a closer look at each of these items to understand what they mean and why they are important.
Item 1: Treat The first item is "Treat". This refers to the process of treating sea water to make it suitable for injection into oil reservoirs. By treating sea water, we can ensure that it is safe and effective for use in oil recovery operations.
Item 2: Transport The second item is "Transport". This refers to the process of transporting the treated sea water from the treatment facility to the injection site. Efficient and reliable transportation is essential to ensure that the sea water is delivered to the injection site on time and in the right quantity.
Item 3: Inject The third item is "Inject". This refers to the process of injecting the treated sea water into oil reservoirs to enhance oil recovery. This is a key step in the oil recovery process, as the injected water helps to displace oil from the reservoir and push it towards the production well.
Item 4: Sustain The fourth and final item is "Sustain". This refers to the goal of sustaining oil recovery operations over the long time by using sustainable practices. This includes optimizing the use of water resources, minimizing waste and emissions, and reducing the environmental impact of oil recovery operations.
Challenges and Lesson Learned of Water Shut-Off Campaigns in Umm-Gudair Field in Kuwait

Published: March 2024

Abstract
Umm Gudair field, West Kuwait onshore field has been on production for more than 60 years. MN-Oolite is an upper cretaceous carbonate reservoir, and it is the main reservoir in Umm Gudair Field. After a lengthy period of production, water production began to constrain and restrict oil production, and as a result, water production drastically raised the total operating costs of the field and overburdened the surface facility. In addition to this excess artificial lift horsepower demand for lifting fluids, corrosion-related concerns and well completion damage are on the rise.
In Um Gudair field, several mechanical and chemical water shut-off procedures were applied. Some of them were quite efficient and commendable in terms of increasing oil potential and decreasing water cut. However, this is not the case for all wells in the field; certain wells did not respond adequately to the mechanical water shutoff, primarily due to the conning effect, and required a different water shutoff strategy. In such situations, limiting water output by lowering the influence of water coning necessitates the use of a chemical polymer to form a chemical barrier.
This paper discusses the lessons gathered from more than 30 polymers water shut-off projects undertaken in Umm Gudair field during the past three decades. A rigorous research was undertaken with a precise diagnosis, information integration, and historical well work-over and completion, production, and reservoir data integration. All data is centralized, processed, and reviewed prior to and after water shut-off treatments in order to extract lessons learned for future projects.
The study indicates that the crosslinked polymer treatment is beneficial for a period of time in reducing water generation. In certain circumstances, the water cut may progressively increase, and in some cases, it will reach the pre-treatment level. In addition, the results indicate that the cross-linked polymer can improve well integrity by obstructing tiny cement channels. With high production rates, a high oil viscosity ratio, and high vertical to horizontal permeability in the reservoir, the severity of the water cone influences the polymer, and it is increasing. The success of the treatment is contingent on a number of factors, including the depth of polymer penetration in the formation, rock petrophysics, formation heterogeneity, polymer characteristics, and the correct operation techniques and implementation.

In the oil and gas industry, monitoring the percentage of water content in produced hydrocarbons is crucial to ensure optimal production quality control and prevent equipment damage. The accurate estimation of the water cut, representing the proportion of water produced relative to the total fluid volume extracted from oil and gas wells, is crucial for effective reservoir management and production optimization. It allows the Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) to come up with an optimized production strategy to minimize water production while maximizing oil recovery.
Management of water has a direct impact on the economic factor of oil field operations. Unwarranted water production can raise the lifting cost and efforts to manage, process, and dispose of the produced water. Having a system to monitor the water cut with an accurate estimation helps optimize the cost, utilizes the resources effectively, allows planning and design of facility ahead of time to provide sufficient capacity and efficient processes and equipment, helps KOC to comply with the environmental regulations on disposing of the produced water, and enable informed decision making for reservoir management and development.
The water cut from production tests such as Portable Gas Oil Ratio (PGOR) is considered the most accurate. It is acquired approximately 3-4 times a year for each producing well and therefore cannot provide continuous water cut monitoring. Downhole sensor data including pressure discharge provide real-time data on reservoir dynamics and fluid behavior within the well. By strategically deploying, an array of these sensors along the wellbore, valuable insights into liquid composition can be obtained, offering the potential for accurate water cut estimation.
