Abstract:
This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper SPE 207506, “Deepest Deviated HP/HT Gas Well Drilling and Testing Challenges on an Offshore Island: Case Study,” by Mubashir Ahmad, SPE, Ayman El Shahat, and M. Osama El-Meguid, ADNOC, et al. The paper has not been peer reviewed. A deep deviated appraisal well in the Upper Khuff reservoir on a small artificial island approximately 100 km offshore Abu Dhabi was drilled and tested successfully. The project was driven by the goal of maximizing ultimate value and benefit for the operator, its partners, the community, and the UAE. The field is in a highly sensitive and ecologically important area and is designated a United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Biosphere Reserve. The complete paper presents the challenges faced and overcome while drilling and testing the high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) sour offshore well. Background The operator has pursued the appraisal and delineation of the Arab, Khuff, and Pre-Khuff gas reservoirs in the huge offshore shallow-water field west of Abu Dhabi. During the early 1980s, in order to evaluate the field’s capability, an evaluative program was launched that involved dredging a channel and creating an artificial island, from which a test well was drilled and capped. Many wells have been drilled in the structure since, all in the northwest part of the field. Testing results have indicated impurities [including hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon dioxide (CO2)] ranging from 14 to 33% in some reservoirs.

Abstract:
The island fauna has special characteristics that depend not only on biotope diversity, but also on the island’s geographical features: area, provenance, distance from the mainland, and hydrodynamic processes. Black Sea Biosphere Reserve includes islands located in Tendrivska and Yagorlytska bays. The islands of Babyn, Smalenyi, Potiyivski, Sybirski, and others are located in Tendrivska Bay. The island of Tendrivska Kosa (Tendra Island) separates Tendrivska Bay from the Black sea. In Yagorlytska Bay, there are the Malyi and Velykyi Kinskyi islands, Dovhyi and Kruhlyi islands, and the Yehypetski Islands. The total area of the islands of protected bays of the Black Sea Biosphere Reserve is 3365 hectares, and the length of the outer coastlines is 179.5 km. The following biotopes were identified on the islands: reed thickets, sandy and shell beaches on the sea coasts and coasts of the deep-water parts of the bays; flooded solonchaks; the inner parts of the islands with plant associations that are typical for the coastal steppe and the littoral-coastal complex. The mammal assemblage of the islands includes 18 spe¬cies belonging to 6 orders, 10 families, and 16 genera. From 0 to 15 species of mammals live on individual islands. The species composition of the mammal fauna depends on the area of the island, available biotopes, the possibility of animal exchange between the island and the mainland. A number of islands have no other inhabitants except birds during the nesting period, primarily colonial ones. A number of islands belong to the complex of reed thickets, in particular the Yehypetski and Sybirski islands. These islands are located along the mainland coast and are regularly visited by wild boars and carnivorans; other islands are littoral (Novi, Potiyivski), and there are no permanent residents on them. Other islands are covered only with reeds and have no permanent inhabitants. On large islands, such as Dovhyi and Tendrivska Kosa, there are 11–15 species of mammals (migrating dolphins and bats not included), of which almost 20% are invasive and associated with human activity. The species composition and state of populations of micro- and mesomammals on the islands depend on many factors, mainly catastrophic flooding, storms, local epizootics, which can occur due to both natural abiotic and anthropogenic factors.

Biodiversitas 20: 819-823. Conservation management in the buffer and transition zones of Biosphere Reserves play an important role in ensuring enhanced core zone protection. Tambolongan and Polassi are two islands located in the administrative region of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, and part of the transition zone area of UNESCO’s Taka Bonerate-Kepulauan Selayar (TBKS) Biosphere Reserve (BR). These two islands can be considered as some of the most populated islands in the region, containing a variety of human activities. These human activities, such as the ever expanding agriculture and the building of human habitation have put pressures toward ecosystem and species conservation in the BR. Bird are often the focus of conservation efforts, due to their roles in supporting the ecological functioning of their habitats. This study aims to provide baseline data of bird diversity in Tambolongan and Polassi that can be used as a proxy indicator of ecosystem health and input to conservation strategies within the BR area. A Visual Encounter Survey (VES) method is used to examine bird diversity index. Results from the observation recorded a total of 29 species were found in both islands, with 5 listed as protected species and 3 categorized as migratory species. The comparison between the two islands showed that the bird diversity index (H’) differs only slightly (H’Tambolongan=2.98; H’Polassi=2.71). This study provided the initial attempt in understanding the role of habitats or land cover types, guild types and human interferences in determining the diversity of bird population - and related ecosystem health - in the area. Such knowledge is essential in providing the information necessary for sustainable management practices. This work represents the first study to inventorize avian species diversity in the transition zone of TBKS BR.

Abstract:
AbstractBird watching is one of the most popular ways of getting close to nature, laying the foundations for what is now known as Birdwatching or Birding, nowadays a niche within ecotourism. The Canary Islands are an exceptional centre for ornithological tourism, standing out for the presence of six endemic species that are exclusive worldwide. In this context, the island of El Hierro is the least visited island for bird watching in the Canary Islands archipelago, even though it has been designated as a Biosphere Reserve and Geopark. This paper aims to lay the foundations for the development of ornithological tourism on the island of El Hierro, following the methodology proposed by Gosálvez Rey (El Valle de Alcudia y Sierra Madrona, 2009), Puhakka et al. (PLoS One 6, 2011) and the Ornithological Tourism Strategy for the Canary Islands (SEO/Birdlife in Estrategia de Turismo Ornitológico para la Macaronesia, 2016). A geographical analysis of the diversity of species is addressed, the most suitable trails and points for birdwatching are indicated and the mechanisms for promoting this tourist activity are outlined. The island of El Hierro has 22 species and subspecies of birds of interest for birdwatching, the best areas for birdwatching being the Natura 2000 sites (EU) and Birdlife International's IBAs. The island of El Hierro is served by a network of paths provided by the Cabildo de El Hierro and the Spanish government's Caminos Naturales programme, complemented by a set of fourteen lookout that serve as strategic points for bird watching. The challenge for the island of El Hierro will be to develop birdwatching that respects and even enhances natural values, avoiding endangering the species observed and their habitats.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives/Scope Deepest Deviated Appraisal well in Upper Khuff reservoir in a small artificial island, located about 100 KM away from Abu Dhabi shore was successfully drilled and tested. The well has been recognized as the deepest deviated well on offshore Island with highest bottom hole reservoir temperature in UAE about 375 deg F (190 degrees C) and exceeding 9000 psi reservoir pressure complemented with impurities of H2S ranging from 10-22% and CO2 between 9-20%. Methods, Procedures, Process The challenges were immense, from designing to execution, including securing special materials for the unique well design to accommodate the sour environment of Khuff reservoir as exploring new reservoirs always counter many risks comparing to developed reservoirs. The execution was driven with the focus of maximizing the ultimate value and benefit for ADNOC, our respected partners, the community and the UAE. The field is located in the most sensitive and ecological important area and is under UNESCO Biosphere reserve. Results, Observations, Conclusions The appraisal well was successfully drilled to Khuff reservoir at a depth of 19000 ft. The well test using Drill stem test (DST string) was conducted. Multiple challenges ranging from HSE, material selection, drilling and logging tools availability, limitations and procuring them in time were overcome by utilizing the World First Integrated Zero Waste Discharge Solution in Restricted & Highly Environmentally Sensitive Areas. Another major challenge faced during the drilling deeper reservoir was mud rheology changes due to high temperatures. The logging program was tailored to overcome the challenges posed by the mud, high temperature, high pressure, sour condition and to gain maximum representative reservoir data in a reservoir where high-pressure steaks and geological unconformities were anticipated. The Drill stem test, (DST) string was successfully POOH after acquiring all the objectives from Khuff K-4 testing under above mentioned harsh environment. The zonal isolation was carried out with cement and rig was released. Novel/Additive Information The drilling and testing operation was conducted with high level of cooperation and excellence accomplishing the well set objectives without (Lost Time Injury). Lessons learned are widely shared with all the teams across the region to expedite and improve on the technologies used for sour gas production. ADNOC Onshore demonstrated 100% HSE, full commitment, high collaboration and efficient outcome ensuring safety compliance for the successful delivery of this highly critical project. This paper presents the various challenges faced and overcome while carrying out the Drilling and testing of the HPHT Sour well offshore.
