Petrophysical Evaluation and Seismic Interpretation of Geowil Hydrocarbon Bearing Reservoir in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria.
(JASEM, 2023-09-30) Osisanya, O. W.; Ogugu, A. A.; Saleh, A. S.; Eyankware, O. M.; Oyanameh, E. O.
The objective of this research was to carry out a petrophysical evaluation and seismic interpretation of Geowil hydrocarbon-bearing field in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria using standard techniques. Three hydrocarbon-bearing sands were identified, namely reservoirs R-1000, R-2000 and R-3000, from the well log data. The result showed that both reservoir R-1000 and R-2000 reveal high resistivity values and low water saturation while reservoir R-3000 indicates that the hydrocarbon contained is oil and gas. Both reservoir R-1000 and R-2000 are observed to be thinning out across the field, reservoir R-3000 is seen to be slightly undulating across the field. The petrophysical computation obtained for the three reservoirs (R-1000, R-2000 and R-3000) revealed that they all have very good average porosity anomalies of 27%, 27% and 25% respectively as well as moderate permeability values (159.974Md, 126.9Md, and 162.02 Md respectively) rating. The hydrocarbon saturation index obtained for all the three reservoir (55%, 54% and 50%) showed that they are all good indicator of prolific hydrocarbon accumulation. The result of the volume of hydrocarbon originally in place and the volume that can be recovered estimated revealed that R-1000 has STOIIP of 262.47MMSTB, R-2000 has 2.66MMSTB and R-3000 has 42.67MMSTB. The ultimate recovery for the three reservoirs is 19.31MMSTB, 1.19MMSTB, and 19.2MMSTB respectively. This implies that the reservoir has great potential for oil resources in considerable size.
Users Perception of Services, Resources and Facilities in Federal University of Petroleum Resources Effurun (FUPRE) Library.
(University of Nebraska - Lincoln, 2020-01) Ijiekhuamhen, Osaze P.; Oyovwe-Tinuoye, Gloria O.
The purpose of this study is to examine users’ perception of library services, resources and facilities in Federal University of Petroleum Resources Effurun (FUPRE). This study adopted a descriptive survey research design. The researcher used a simple random sampling technique in selecting samples for the study. The instrument used for data collection in this study was a structured questionnaire. The respondents comprises of registered users of the library, which cut
across the entire academic community, which includes the lecturers, non –teaching members of staff, students and external researchers among others who registered between October, 2014- August, 2019. Out of 200 copies of questionnaires distributed, 150 copies were filled and returned for analysis hence given a response rate of 75% which was found usable for the study. The data collected from the respondents were analyzed using descriptive statistics (Frequency
counts and Percentage). The study revealed that undergraduate students who were majority visit the library daily; followed by academic staff while non teaching staff and other researcher hardly visit the library to use its resources, services and facilities. Majority of the respondents visited the library to do assignments, to consult textbooks followed by to consult reference materials, to study for examinations, among others. In terms of services users were satisfied with library user
education /orientation services, library research help service, library references services and dissatisfied with internet services, library electronic services, inter-library loan services and library loan services. In terms of resources, users were satisfied with Encyclopedia and Year Books. While users were dissatisfied with library books, journals, magazines, electronic resources, online resources, among others. In terms of facilities users were satisfied with the library printer, photocopying machine, digital board /projectors, notice board and shelves, while users were dissatisfied with tables and chairs, reading carrels, fans /air conditioning, networked computers, internet access, scanners, laminating machine, instructional facilities. Majority of the users were satisfied with the library personnel. In terms of general assessment of the library, users were satisfied with the library policy, assistance from the librarians, the position of the
library in meeting users’ needs, the rules and regulations as well as organization of the library. Users were dissatisfied with the library location, building book lending procedure and opening and closing time
Automation Software and its Utilization: The Case of Libraries in Nigeria.
(Kohacon15, Ibadan, Nigeria, 2015-10) Omeluzor, Saturday U.; Otuza, C. Evans; Oyovwe-Tinuoye, Gloria O.
This paper discussed the adoption and use of Integrated Library Software (ILS) in libraries across Nigeria. It focused on the concept and benefits of automation. It also highlighted some approaches for adoption and implementation of integrated library software (ILS) in libraries. This paper further discussed some ILS adoption procedures in academic libraries across Nigeria while expatiating on KOHA ILS as viable solution to libraries for effective service delivery to its users. This paper explicitly discussed a step-by-step strategy used to import a total of 23, 274 records from X-Lib automation software to KOHA ILS at Laz Otti Memorial Library,
Babcock University and concludes by encouraging libraries to adopt viable automation software such as KOHA in order to forestall problems associated with system failure, poor service provision to the clientele and none visibility of the library and its materials to the users.
Effect of literature in the school library on the social development of empathy and friendship skills of children.
(University of Idaho Library, 2021-11-25) Ojeabulu, N.
The paper examined the effect of literature in the school library on the social development of empathy and friendship skills of children. The study was done with two private primary schools in Orerokpe Educational Zone of Delta State, Nigeria. Two objectives and two research questions guided the study. The population of the study was 28,172 and the sample comprised 63 primary four pupils. Purposive and cluster sampling techniques were used to sample 32 pupils in experimental group one and 31 in the experimental group two (control group). Cluster sampling technique was further employed to draw out the two intact classes for the experiment. Data collected was were analyzed using mean and standard deviation, while analysis of covariance was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. From the findings, it was discovered that exposing children to literature is effective and significant in both their ability to empathize with others and their ability to make friends. The implication is that schools should pay adequate attention to literature books when stocking the library, especially those with empathy and friendship themes as they will greatly impact the children on their ability to empathize with others and their ability to make friends with ease.
The Use of Social Media by Teenagers in Day Secondary School, Delta State, Nigeria
(Publishing India Group, 2021) Oyovwe-Tinuoye, Gloria O.; Adomi, Esharenana E.
The study investigated the use of social media by teenagers in day secondary school in Delta State. A descriptive survey research design was embraced for the study, with a self-constructed questionnaire as the tool of data collection. The questionnaire was constructed after consultation of related literature to ensure
that relevant items were included in it. A structured questionnaire was designed by the researchers with six research questions. The population of the study comprised all teenagers in day secondary school in Delta State, Nigeria. The researchers used a simple random sampling method in selecting samples for the study, because the method allows members of the populace under study to have equal chances of being selected. Data was collected through the use of a self-constructed questionnaire entitled ‘The use of social media by teenagers in day secondary (USMTDS)’. The data collected were analysed using simple percentages and descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings revealed that a majority of the respondents have access to social media and the devices used
were bought for them by their parents; Facebook is mostly used by teenagers; teenagers access social media during the day; they did not know the length of time they spent on social media; teenagers used social media for academic matters; teenagers are monitored by parents on social media; and social media exposes teenagers to pornography materials. The paper recommended that efforts should be made by parents to ensure constant monitoring and supervision of teenagers on social media to reduce the crime rate, as well as restrict the sites they can access.
