Abstract: A rotary steerable drill string (16) employs a drill bit (10) selected to positively contribute to underpressure in a preselected azimuthal segment of the borehole relative to an opposing azimuthal section. Generally, a high flow velocity of drilling fluid in the selected azimuthal segment relative to in other segments will result in a more pronounced underpressure in the selected azimuthal segment. Drill bit designs which locally enhance the drilling fluid flow velocity are proposed to be employed in the present rotary steerable drill string.

Abstract: A distribution of sand sediment class in a subsurface of the Earth is identified. Three-dimensional stratigraphic images of sediment distribution in a subsurface of the Earth are constructed, including at least two depositional domains, by simulating sediment transport and deposition over a selected time interval of sediments originating from one or more clastic sediment input sources. The simulation uses at least two equilibrium surfaces bounding the at least two depositional domains and at least two sediment classes, and updates the equilibrium surfaces in a sequence of timesteps, by accounting for sediment feed from the one or more clastic sediment input sources, erosion and deposition in accordance with mass-balance equality constraints. The images are used to identify a distribution of sand sediment class in the subsurface of the Earth suitable for acquiring hydrocarbons or fresh water, or for storing gas or liquids.

Abstract: Process for the preparation of hydrogen by reacting a feed gas comprising methane and carbon monoxide with steam in the presence of a steam reforming catalyst at a pressure of at least 15 bara in the heated zone of a steam reformer to obtain a raw hydrogen containing product stream, wherein (a) the feed gas is mixed with the steam before entering the steam reformer resulting in a reaction mixture of the feed gas and steam having a temperature below 540° C.; and (b) the reaction mixture obtained in step (a) is fed into the heated zone of the steam reformer where it is first contacted with an inert material before it is contacted with the steam reforming catalyst.

Abstract: A hydroprocessing catalyst composition that comprises a chelant treated metal containing support material having incorporated therein a polar additive. The catalyst composition is prepared by incorporating at least one metal component into a support material followed by treating the metal incorporated support with a chelating agent and thereafter incorporating a polar additive into the chelant treated composition.

Abstract: A method for autonomous geosteering for a well-boring process uses a trained function approximating agent. A geological objective is determined. Then, using the trained function approximating agent, a sequence of control inputs is determined to steer a well-boring tool towards the geological objective. The trained function approximating agent is adapted to enact the sequence of control inputs upon receiving a signal from a measurement from the well-boring process.
