Breathing prediction of fracture deviated wellbore through flooding mechanism
Abstract: Wellbore breathing is a common occurrence during drilling operations, but the down hole mechanism and how it manifests itself in surface and subsurface processes, is not well understood. It often result in a drilling fluid gain at surface and are misidentified as a kick, resulting in unneeded shut in periods and associated non-productive time (NPT). Further, misidentification of wellbore breathing as underbalance often results in increases in mud weight, which …

A Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Health Instruction Module (HIM) on Knowledge Regarding Varicose Vein and DVT and its Preventive Measures Among Laborers in Selected Small Scale Industries at Greater Noida
Abstract: Varicose veins square measure veins that became enlarged and tortuous. The term usually refers to theveins on the leg, though unhealthy veins will occur elsewhere. Veins have leaflet valves to stop bloodfrom flowing backwards (retrograde flow or reflux). Leg muscles pump the veins to come back bloodto the Heart (the calf muscle pump mechanism), against the results of gravity. When veins becomeunhealthy, the leaflets of the valves now not meet …
