Drilling Fluid Waste Management in Drilling for Oil and Gas Wells
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017 Drilling operation produces two major wastes which are produced water and drilling waste. The drilling waste must be properly managed to ensure no impact to the environment and human.

Subsurface Disposal of Fluid Wastes in Saskatchewan: ABSTRACT [PDF]
AAPG Bulletin, 1974 In the Williston basin region, deep-well disposal of industrial fluid wastes is confined largely to the Saskatchewan part of the stable, relatively shallow, tectonic shelf, which is flanked on the south by the deeper basin proper, and is delimited in the north by the Canadian shield.

High-density support matrices: Key to the deep borehole disposal of spent nuclear fuel [PDF]
, 2008 Deep (4–5 km) boreholes are emerging as a safe, secure, environmentally sound and potentially cost-effective option for disposal of high-level radioactive wastes, including plutonium.

Zircons and fluids: An experimental investigation with applications for radioactive waste disposal [PDF]
, 1990 The long-term stability of nuclear waste forms or barriers is related to changes in physical properties of the material induced through radiation damage and subsequent changes in solubility. Investigations conducted by us on natural zircons (ZrSiO{sub 4}) supports a positive correlation between level of alpha damage and fluid composition to enhanced ...

Microbiological influences on fracture surfaces of intact mudstone and the implications for geological disposal of radioactive waste [PDF]
, 2011 The significance of the potential impacts of microbial activity on the transport properties of host rocks for geological repositories is an area of active research. Most recent work has focused on granitic environments. This paper describes pilot studies

Scalable block preconditioners for saturated thermo-hydro-mechanics problems
Advanced Modeling and Simulation in Engineering Sciences, 2023 We are interested in the modelling of saturated thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) problems that describe the behaviour of a soil in which a weakly compressible fluid evolves.
