The novel approach of unraveling the potential of bypassed hydrocarbon reservoir a thinly laminated geology by comparing the petrophysical parameters and computed Stock Oil Initial-in-Place (STOIIP) obtained from conventional log response to that obtainable in high resolution image data sets was carefully initiated. Archie's equation was adopted in the estimation of water saturation. The net-to-gross was estimated directly from the logs. TECHLOG 2.7 Version was used to estimate the pefrophys...

- Elections are the bedrock of democracy and voting is one of the electoral processes that ensure the sustenance of democracy, political growth and democratic stability of any society. We have designed an Enhanced Electronic Voting System (EnEVoS) with a Hybrid Authentication Technique, which will reduce electoral malpractices and manipulation of results to its barest minimum. The implementation of this Enhanced Electronic Voting System (EnEVoS) in Nigeria will boost the integrity and image o...
The work is on the distribution pattern of filling station in Benin metropolis, it also shows the conformity of filling stations in regards to the rules and regulations of the DPR (Department of Petroleum Resources) in Nigeria.
In this research work, we have reviewed and studied two disease models: a disease model with logistic recruitment rate with and without incubation period and a disease model with linear recruitment rate with and without incubation period. The existence and stability or otherwise of the equilibrium states of the models were studied; also numerical experiments were conducted using a written computer program in MATLAB function ode45; for which table of parameter values were generated using sec...
Abstract One major environmental hazard causing serious social problem in oil producing communities in Niger Delta is oil spills. This is as a result of the numerous petroleum related installations. T he the aquifer via pathways along which contaminants flow from the surface to th deterioration of water quality in shallow and vulnerable aquife rs spills contaminate e aquifer causing . Electrical resistivity investigation of the SombreiroWarri Deltaic Plain deposits of the Niger Delta was carr...

ABSTRACT Ditch cutting samples collected from interval 2590 3300 metres in Well K-27, Greater Ughelli depobelt, Niger Delta were studied for their lithology and foraminiferal content with the aim of dating and subdivision of the sequences penetrated by the well into biozones. The samples were processed using standard foraminiferal processing methods involving sample disaggregation and washing through a 63 micron mesh sieve, drying and picking and subsequent analysis of the foraminifera and a...

Department of Geology, Gombe State University, Gombe, Nigeria (Sabbatical), 2. Department of Geology, University of Calabar, Calabar, Nigeria ABSTRACT Seismic and checkshot data, geophysical data and biostratigraphic data extracted from ditch cutting samples, were used for the sequence stratigraphic analysis of Beta-24 we...
ABSTRACT Bio-fuels are prominent in current discussions both as a solution to problems and as a creator of problems. They have promise as a substitute for fossil fuels, particularly petroleum as the raw material for transportation fuel. But bio-fuels also have pitfalls, especially when produced at a scale sufficient to replace a significant proportion of the world's use of petroleum. This controversial topic has attracted great political, economic and social attention because of its touching...
Aim: This study was carried out to isolate and identify the microbial pathogens of medical importance on the external body surfaces of Periplaneta americana collected from toilet areas, residential/hostel areas and health facilities in Umuahia metropolis, Abia State, south-eastern Nigeria. Study Design: Cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: The study was carried out in Umuahia ...
Health related quality of life is one of the growing subjects used for evaluating health conditions among patients who suffer from specific ailment.It has been assumed that identification of the variables is able to mirror the one's general health conditions.However,formulating the extent of contribution is multiple variable towards overall health conditions is not straight forward as the arbitrary nature of HRQL variables.This paper aims to model the relationship between HRQL variables using...
Abstract: Aim: isolation, purification and NMR characterization of secondary metabolites in Mimosa pudica. Study design: extraction, isolation and identification of the secondary metabolties from the petroleum ether and metabolites extracts from Mimosa pudica. Methodology: In the course of our study on Mimosa pudica, a compound was isolated and purified using different chromatographic techniques and the structure of the compound determined on the basis of their spectroscopic data (IR, H...
ABSTRACT In this study, the whole plant of Mimosa pudica was extracted using absolute ethanol. The crude ethanolic extract and its isolated triterpenoid glycoside were tested for antifungal activity towards Aspergillus flavus and Trichophyton rubrum using Well Diffusion Method. At concentrations of 25 –100 mg/mL, the extract possesses antifungal activity (from being partially active to very active) against Aspergillus flavus and Trichophyton rubrum. The TLC profile of the crude extract...
Abstract: The side effects and the increasing microbial resistance to synthetic drugs in the management and treatment of infections remain an issue in modern medicine, hence the increasing research in phytomedicine. Therefore in the present study, the active phytocomponents of Mimosa pudica’s wholesome parts were revealed using quantitative phytochemical analysis. The antibacterial activity of the Ethanolic extract was studied using Well diffusion method. The activity was tested aga...
