Planning types

NOTE A test plan type for an item accelerated test is called the [k R tq] type when failed items after failure occurrence are replaced (see Fig. 1). Replacing failed items after failure occurrence is the main principle of the test. The principle of the test acceleration is represented by increased condition effect - heat in our case. This is due to simulation of the presumably real condition of the item operation and its behaviour... 

Plan type = linear Nnmber of branches = 1 N=l reaction stage M=1 reaction 1=2 input materials Overall AE = 100%... 

Plan type = convergent Nnmber of branches = 3 N=5 reaction stages M = 8 reactions / = 10 inpnt materials Overall AE = 30.4%... 

The survey requirements will depend on rig type and the extent of the planned development e. single exploration well or drilling jacket installation. Atypical survey area is some 4 km by 4 km centred on the planned location. Surveys may include... 

The time taken to complete a base line study and EIA should not be underestimated. The baseline study describes and inventorises the natural initial flora, fauna, the aquatic life, land and seabed conditions prior to any activity. In seasonal climates, the baseline study may need to cover the whole year. The duration of an EIA depends upon the size and type of area under study, and the previous work done in the area, but may typically take six months. The EIA is often an essential step in project development and should not be omitted from the planning schedule. 

Figure 5.21 helps to explain how the phase diagrams of the main types of reservoir fluid are used to predict fluid behaviour during production and how this influences field development planning. It should be noted that there are no values on the axes, since in fact the scales will vary for each fluid type. Figure 5.21 shows the relative positions of the phase envelopes for each fluid type. 

The amount of detail input, and the type of simulation model depend upon the issues to be investigated, and the amount of data available. At the exploration and appraisal stage it would be unusual to create a simulation model, since the lack of data make simpler methods cheaper and as reliable. Simulation models are typically constructed at the field development planning stage of a field life, and are continually updated and increased in detail as more information becomes available. 

The type of development, type and number of development wells, recovery factor and production profile are all inter-linked. Their dependency may be estimated using the above approach, but lends itself to the techniques of reservoir simulation introduced in Section 8.4. There is never an obvious single development plan for a field, and the optimum plan also involves the cost of the surface facilities required. The decision as to which development plan is the best is usually based on the economic criterion of profitability. Figure 9.1 represents a series of calculations, aimed at determining the optimum development plan (the one with the highest net present value, as defined in Section 13). 

By plotting the cumulative resource weighting against time, the planned progress of the project can be illustrated, as shown in Figure 12.8. This type of plot Is often referred to as an S -Curve, as projects often need time to gain momentum and slow down towards completion (unlike the example shown). 

GOST 30415 specifies plans for inspection the products of different types and sets formulae for calculation of inspected numbers while applying magnetic inspection. The procedure of random inspection is predetermined to check the authenticity of the correlated relation usage and regulations are introduced to enter data file of non-destructive and parallel tests. 

By analysing the scans, different types of tube characteristics, wastage patterns or profiles can be documented and effectively used to make immediate decisions during shut downs and in planning maintenance programs. 

Alternatively, the user can construct ASCII input files manually. The file format includes many numerical flags to control the type of calculation. The researcher should plan on investing some time in learning to use the program in this way. Jaguar can be executed from the command line, making it possible to use batch processing or job queue systems. 

There are three types of TAP emissions continuous, intermittent, and accidental. Both routine emissions associated with a batch process or a continuous process that is operated only occasionally can be intermittent sources. A dramatic example of an accidental emission was the release of methyl isocyanate [624-83-9] in Bhopal, India. As a result of this accident, the U.S. Congress created Tide III, a free-standing statute included in the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) of 1986. Title III provides a mechanism by which the pubHc can be informed of the existence, quantities, and releases of toxic substances, and requires the states to develop plans to respond to accidental releases of these substances. Eurther, it requires anyone releasing specific toxic chemicals above a certain threshold amount to aimuaHy submit a toxic chemical release form to EPA. At present, there are 308 specific chemicals subject to Title III regulation (37). 

New product development programs present another type of challenge to the researcher. Often the researcher has no guidelines for evaluating the new product and must formulate a unique plan for developiag enough iaformation to constmct a matrix that would show the risks and rewards of the project. Reference 6 presents 10 commandments for new-product development.
