Once debe, ever debe.

its been long since dawn

thanks evry1 but it still doesnt install, ive tried chaging the tcp settings to
APN: web.gprs.mtnnigeria.net
yserbame web
password web
anybody with anything else i can try?

yeah, and i downloaded opera mini but the thing just wont install

yeah i was really thinking about the cost but i just think the blackberry browser is so wack, ive tried installing opera, no luck, pls do u know how i can install opera on my bb. i downloaded it but it wont install.

pls what do i use for username and password while dialing up

Thanks.

ok its an 8820 and i use MTN

pls see this

http://www.blackberryforums.com/blackberry-guides/2019-user-howto-use-blackberry-modem-laptop.html

thanks, but i googled it before asking, you need some network settings peculiar to your network(mtn in this case) i need someoe who has actually done it before.
thaks for trying sha.

hi, i was wondering if i could connect my blackberry to my computer and then browse with it.
i have also been unable to install opera mini
anyone pls help

Yeah, had my birthday today, got a surprise cake from my girlfriend, prayed a little. I'm off to sleep now.

Course Outline
Liquid and Gas pipeline hydraulics

liquid pipeline hydraulics covers the steady state transportation of liquids in pipelines. These include water lines, refined petroleum products and crude oil pipelines. This course will prove to be a refresher in fluid mechanics as it is applied to real world pipeline design. Although many formulas and equations are introduced, we will concentrate on how these are applied to the solution of actual pipeline transportation problems.

First, the liquid properties are discussed and how they vary with temperature and pressure are analyzed. The pressure in a liquid and liquid head are explained next. Then the classical Darcy equation for determining pressure drop due to friction in liquid flow is introduced and a modified more practical version is explained. Common forms of equations relating flow versus pressure drop due to friction are introduced and applications illustrated by example problems. In a long distance pipeline the need for multiple pump stations and hydraulic pressure gradient are discussed.

Next the pumping horsepower required to transport a liquid through a pipeline is calculated. Centrifugal and positive displacement pumps are discussed along with an analysis of the pump performance curves. The impact of liquid specific gravity and viscosity on pump performance is explained with reference to the Hydraulic Institute charts. The use of drag reduction as a means to improving pipeline throughput is explored. Batching of different products in a pipeline simultaneously, with minimum commingling, is discussed next. The internal design pressure in a pipeline and the hydrostatic test pressure for safe operation are explained with illustrative examples.



This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

* Properties of liquids
* Calculating Reynolds Number and friction factor
* How to calculate liquid pressure drop in a pipeline using Moody Diagrams and pressure drop equations such as Miller Equation, MIT Equation and Hazen Williams
* Components of total pressure and how to maintain the hydraulic pressure gradient above the elevation profile
* The effect of temperature on liquid pipeline calculations
* Looping a pipeline to increase flow rate
* Determining the quantity and location of pumping stations and the required horsepower
* Plotting pump vs. system head curves
* Evaluating pump curves, including head vs. flow rate, efficiency vs. flow rate, BHP vs. flow rate, NSPH vs. flow rate
* Using the pump affinity laws
* Using drag reduction agents (DRA) to increase a pipeline's capacity
* Pumping different products, such as jet fuel and diesel, through a pipeline using batching methods
* Calculating pipe wall thickness based on MAOP



Gas pipeline Hydraulics.

gas pipeline hydraulics covers the steady state analysis of compressible fluid flow through pipelines. Mathematical derivations are reduced to a minimum, since the intent is to provide the practicing engineer a practical tool to understand and apply the concepts of gas flow in pipes. In particular, we will cover natural gas pipeline transportation including how pipelines are sized for a particular flow rate, the pressure required to transport a given volume of gas and the compression horsepower required.

The properties of natural gas that affect pipe flow will be reviewed first followed by the concepts of laminar and turbulent flow and Reynolds number. Frictional pressure loss and the method of calculating the friction factor using the Moody diagram and the Colebrook and AGA methods will be illustrated with examples. Several other popular flow equations, such as the Weymouth and Panhandle formulas will be introduced and explained with example problems. Increasing pipeline throughput using intermediate compressor stations as well as pipe loops will be discussed. The strength requirement of pipes, allowable operating pressure and hydrostatic test pressure will be reviewed with reference to the DOT code requirements. Several fully solved example problems are used to illustrate the concepts introduced in the various sections of the course.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty-five (25) questions at the end of the course to obtain credits.

WHAT IS NIGERIAN CONTENT POLICY

Nigerian Content is defined as the quantum of composite value added or created in the Nigerian economy through the utilisation of Nigerian human and material resources for the provision of goods and services to the petroleum industry within acceptable quality, health, safety and environmental standards in order to stimulate the development of indigenous capabilities

The targets set by the Federal Government for Nigerian content is 45% by 2006 and 70% by 2010

WHAT DOES THIS IMPLY

This means that by law, oil producing companies are to carry out their design, construction and installation of oil facility locally using locally sourced manpower but not compromising quality delivery. These projects were previously done overseas. To drive this home, any bidding done for any oil company, by law a specific percentage of the local content must be stated before the bidder is given a consideration (the target is 45% in 2006 and 70% in 2010.



Now by 2010, Nigerians are going to carry out 70% of all Design, construction and installation of oil facilities.

To be part of this you cannot afford to sit down and wait, you have to take action to be part of the opportunities in the oil and gas industry.
