A Novel Thermo-Thickening Oil-Based Drilling Fluid Based on Composite Thickener Under High Temperature and Pressure

open access: yesEnergies
Under high-temperature conditions in deep well formations, oil-based drilling fluids tend to show degraded rheological properties and reduced suspension capacity, which may impair wellbore cleanliness and circulation pump pressure and hinder drilling. To

Nutritional, Functional, and Anti‐Hypercholesterolemic Properties of Sourdough Breads From Unripe Plantain, Tiger Nut, and Fenugreek Flours

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Composite sourdough breads were developed from blends of unripe plantain, tiger nut, and fenugreek flours. Optimized formulations improved pasting stability and enhanced texture, producing softer more elastic crumbs. The enriched breads contained higher dietary fiber and bioactive compounds, and significantly reduced serum cholesterol markers ...

Quality of Spontaneous and Backslopped Fermented Cassava Flour From Different Cassava Landraces and Sensory Acceptability of the Cooked Dough

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The cooked Oko‐iyawo spontaneously fermented cassava flour's sensory acceptability was correlated with its amylose content, pH, pasting temperature, and water absorption capability. Cassava processors may be able to create consistently high‐quality fermented cassava flour for various end users with the use of the information provided in this study ...

Effect of Additives on Rheological Properties and Fluid Loss of Oil Based Drilling Fluids

open access: yesAnnual Transactions of the Nordic Rheology Society
Oil-based drilling fluids are often used to drill geothermal or petroleum wells in hot locations. These fluids normally consist of dispersion of organophilic clays in water-in-oil emulsions. If loss of fluid to the formation is expected, fibres or other additives for fluid loss prevention are added.

Gel Evolution in Oil Based Drilling Fluids

open access: yes, 2012
Drilling fluids make up an essential part of the drilling operation. Successful drilling operations rely on adequate drilling fluid quality. With the development of new drilling techniques such as long deviated sections and drilling in ultra-deep waters, the standard of required performance of the drilling fluids continue to increase.

Opium trade and use during the Late Bronze Age: Organic residue analysis of ceramic vessels from the burials of Tel Yehud, Israel

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Organic residue analysis was conducted on various vessels from burials at Tel Yehud, Israel. The analyses led to new reliable evidence for the presence of opioid alkaloids and their decomposition products. This research revitalizes a decades‐old discussion on the presence and function of the opium trade across a cultural region of utmost ...
