This research was conducted in a response to the dissolved oxygen (DO) decline in winter in the Athabasca River. Sediment oxygen demand (SOD) is considered as one of the major factors contributing to the DO decline in the Athabasca River. The SOD is influenced by physical phenomena, chemical...

Failure Pressure Prediction of Cracks in Corrosion Defects in Pipelines using eXtended Finite Element Method
DownloadFall 2020
Pipelines are one of the safest means of oil and gas transportation. In Canada, 97% of all oil and gas production is transported by pipelines. However, their increasing age can constitute integrity concerns due to the presence of defects such as cracks, welds, dents, and corrosion. These defects...

Bitumen is extracted either using surface mining or in situ processes, such as Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD), that could produce large quantities of oil sands process water (OSPW) and SAGD produced water. SAGD produced water is generally characterized by a slightly basic pH (7-8), high...
