文摘As decarbonization pressure on traditional fossil fuel-related industries gradually intensifies,CCUS has been increasingly incorporated into energy transition strategies by various oil companies.From a development opportunity perspective,oil companies possess four key advantages in developing the CCUS industry:exploration and development technology advantages;geological resource advantages;capital advantages;source-sink matching advantages.In terms of challenges,oil companies face numerous issues in developing the CCUS industry,including technological development,economic viability,and policy and legal aspects.At the national level,China’s oil companies should advocate for improving and optimizing relevant laws and regulations,enhancing the policy support system,incorporating CCUS into the carbon trading market,and strengthening top-level design and medium-to long-term planning;at the enterprise level,they should continuously advance full industrial chain technologies and reduce CCUS project operating costs,selectively participate in industrial segments that suit their capabilities,strengthen CCUS full industrial chain operational capabilities,and enhance talent development and strengthen international exchange and cooperation.
文摘This study systematically reviews the development history and key technological breakthroughs of large gas fields in the Ordos Basin,and summarizes the development models of three gas reservoir types,low-permeability carbonate,low-permeability sandstone and tight sandstone,as well as the progress in deep coal-rock gas development.The current challenges and future development directions are also discussed.Mature development models have been formed for the three representative types of gas reservoirs in the Ordos Basin:(1)Low-permeability carbonate reservoir development model featuring groove fine-scale characterization and three-dimensional vertical succession between Upper and Lower Paleozoic formations.(2)Low-permeability sandstone reservoir development model emphasizing horizontal well pressure-depletion production and vertical well pressure-controlled production.(3)Tight sandstone gas reservoir development model focusing on single-well productivity enhancement and well placement optimization.In deep coal-rock gas development,significant progress has been achieved in reservoir evaluation,sweet spot prediction,and geosteering of horizontal wells.The three types of reservoirs have entered the mid-to-late stages of the development,when the main challenge lies in accurately characterizing residual gas,evaluating secondary gas-bearing layers,and developing precise potential-tapping strategies.In contrast,for the early-stage development of deep coal-rock gas,continuous technological upgrades and cost reduction are essential to achieving economically viable large-scale development.Four key directions of future research and technological breakthroughs are proposed:(1)Utilizing dual-porosity(fracture-matrix)modeling techniques in low-permeability carbonate reservoirs to delineate the volume and distribution of remaining gas in secondary pay zones,supporting well pattern optimization and production enhancement of existing wells.(2)Integrating well-log and seismic data to characterize reservoir spatial distribution of successive strata,enhancing drilling success rates in low-permeability sandstone reservoirs.(3)Utilizing the advantages of horizontal wells to penetrate effective reservoirs laterally,achieving meter-scale quantification of small-scale single sand bodies in tight gas reservoirs,and applying high-resolution 3D geological models to clarify the distribution of remaining gas and guide well placement optimization.(4)Further strengthening the evaluation of deep coal-rock gas in terms of resource potential,well type and pattern,reservoir stimulation,single-well performance,and economic viability.

文摘Global climate change has created substantial difficulties in the areas of sustainability,development,and environmental conservation due to the widespread dependence on fossil fuels for energy production.Nevertheless,the promotion of renewable energy programs has the potential to significantly expedite endeavors aimed at tackling climate change.Thus,it is essential to conduct a thorough analysis that considers the financial aspects to fully understand the main hurdles that are preventing the advancement of renewable energy initiatives.Italy is a leading country in the worldwide deployment of renewable energy.The objective of this research is to assess the impact of financial growth,economic progress,and energy expenses on Italy’s adoption of renewable energy sources.By employing the Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag(ARDL)technique,we analyzed annual data spanning from1990 to 2022.Findings revealed that a 1%increase in financial and economic development would boost renewable energy consumption in the long run by 0.29%and 0.48%,respectively.Instead,a 1%increase in energy prices might reduce consumption of renewable energy by 0.05%in the long run.This study’s primary significance lies in furnishing actionable strategies for Italy to augment green finance for renewable energy,fostering sustained social and economic progress.Moreover,the analytical insights gleaned from this research offer valuable insights for energy-importing nations worldwide.
文摘BACKGROUND Unintended pregnancy occurs when an individual or couple conceives without planning or desire,which can potentially affect a child’s physical,mental,and social well-being.This can then lead to long-term socioeconomic challenges for families and communities.Although its impact on child growth and development is a pressing concern,research remains limited particularly in multicenter settings.AIM To examine the long-term consequences of unintended pregnancy on the critical years of early childhood growth and development.METHODS This analytical observational study employed a case-control design and was conducted in research centers across Indonesia,encompassing those located in Central Java,Lampung,Bali,and West Nusa Tenggara.A total of 700 children aged≤5 years with histories of intended or unintended pregnancies participated.Data collection involved structured interviews and direct anthropometric and developmental assessments.Data analyses were conducted using multivariate statistics and partial least squares structural equation modeling.RESULTS Unintended pregnancy was found to have a statistically significant effect on both child growth(t=8.178;P<0.001)and child development(t=25.688;P<0.001).Key growth problems identified included underweight,undernutrition,abnormal head circumference,and stunting.Developmental challenges prominently associated with unintended pregnancy included behavioral and emotional disorders,autism spectrum disorder,attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder,social and motor skill deficits,as well as visual and hearing impairments.CONCLUSION Unintended pregnancy significantly affects child growth and development,underscoring the need for early intervention,quality prenatal care,and strengthened family planning policies.

文摘Dongyuemiao Member shale in the Sichuan Basin,China,is characterized by organic-rich shale intervals with different types of interbeds and accumulation modes.The aim of this study is to elucidate the impact of paleoenvironmental indicators on interbed development.With this aim in mind,we established an interbed classification scheme and quantified the development of different types of interbeds and their frequencies.We categorized the shale interbeds into three types based on interbed type:silt interbeds(SIs),shell fragment interbeds(SFIs),and shell skeleton interbeds(SSIs).The SIs,SFIs,and SSIs are respectively the products of extrabasinal low-density turbidity currents,intrabasinal debris flow,and intrabasinal low-density turbidity currents.We propose that variations in paleoenvironmental conditions primarily influenced the types of interbeds that developed but had minimal impact on the frequency of their development.Models depicting the interbed development within the 1st Submember of Dongyuemiao Member indicate that during the early Dongyuemiao depositional period,under conditions of relatively aridity,weak weathering,high terrigenous input,and strong hydrodynamic activity,SSIs were well developed.In the middle depositional period,as the climate gradually transitioned to more humid conditions,and the weathering intensity and amount of terrestrial input increased,the development of SIs and SFIs significantly increased.During the late depositional period,with a continuous decrease in terrestrial inputs and sedimentation rates,the development of SIs decreased while that of SSIs increased.
