Anti-Cancer Drugs-Common Types in Libya Tamoxifen: Structure and Synthesis
Abstract: This research reviews the role of anticancer organic compounds, focusing on Tamoxifen as a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM) and briefly comparing it to Vincristine and Vinblastine (Vinca alkaloids). At first, the review includes: classification of cancer stages, revealing symptoms of each stage. Moreover, the review gives an overview of the general classification of most of the cancer drugs, types of cancer drugs used specially in Libya, their structural differences …

Identification of Some Imported Lubricating Oil Additives Used in Libya and Synthesis of the Most Consumed Ones from the Local Raw Materials
Abstract: This paper presents the identified six additives imported under trade names used in the lubricating oil blending factory of A-Zawia-Libya. Their structures have been completely confirmed by examining their physical properties and using modern analytical techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), infra-red (IR), atomic absorption (AAS) and gas chromatography (GC). The synthesis of most important and more consumed additives in lubricating oils in Libyan oil industry from local …

Modeling and Optimization of Continuous Gas Lift Performance in Libya Oil Field
Abstract: With a massive number of oil and gas field becoming mature, the upstream engineering is facing new challenge. How to develop , or at least steady production while keeping obtainable reserves at their existing level, As matter of fact unstable production in gas lift wells. The Key issues most operators encounter with oil fields are the effects of high water production that may lead to wells died and decrease in …

Anti-static Additive and Particulate Formation in Jet Fuel at Low Temperature
Abstract: Over-dosed anti-static additive Stadis 450 can form particulates in jet fuel when temperature goes down to around -38oC. The particulate formation was observed during freezing point test. The jet fuel produced by Toruk refinery of Arabian Gulf Oil Company of Libya had freezing point of about -55OC which is lower than required-47OC for jet fuel A-1. Key words: Libya, Tobruk refinery, Sarir refinery, Jet Fuel, Anti-Static Additive, Particulate, Low Temperature

Assessment of the Current Situation of Drinking Water in the Al Jufra Region–Libya
Abstract: Rainwater, groundwater and surface water are considered the most important sources of water for most Arab countries in general. Most Libyan cities depend mainly on groundwater for drinking water sources. Al-Jufra is one of the areas that has suffered from a lack of water resources in recent years as a result of urban, population and agricultural development. And as it occupies an important geographical area in the center of the …

Organic Compounds as Anti-inflammatory Agents, Natural and Synthetic
Abstract: Inflammation diseases still threaten humanity everywhere. For which there is always a continuous demand for immediate medication, the so-called anti-inflammatory drug. Anti-inflammatory organic compounds are either of natural origin or synthetic. Many drugs represent the main constituent of plants. Turmeric, ginger, garlic, spinach, broccoli, ginseng, blueberries, clove, Aloe Vera and pineapple all are plants almost rich in anti-oxidant and flavonoids that reduce inflammation. Researchers still have spent decades of years …

Estimation of Dulling Rate and Bit Tooth Wear Using Drilling Parameters and Rock Abrasiveness
Abstract: Optimisation of the drilling operations is becoming increasingly important as it can significantly reduce the oil well development cost. One of the major objectives in oil well drilling is to increase the penetration rate by selecting the optimum drilling bit based on offset wells data, and adjust the drilling factors to keep the bit in good condition during the operation. At the same time it is important to predict the …

Well Integrity and Reservoir Behavior under Sudden Field Shutdowns During Armed Conflicts: A Comprehensive Technical Review
Abstract: In the oil and gas industry, the sudden and unplanned cessation of operations resulting from armed conflicts or pandemics typically poses complex and multifaceted technical challenges to both well integrity and reservoir behavior. Minimal or no opportunity for proper pre-shutdown preservation procedures in unplanned shutdowns, unlike planned shutdowns that follow established operational protocols. The mechanisms and consequences of well integrity degradation and reservoir performance alteration under such conditions are synthesized …
