Unconventional oil refers to oil reserves that cannot be feasibly accessed using conventional drilling techniques. These reserves –notably tight oil, oil shale, and bitumen– must be extracted using novel methods.

The Shell Middle Distillate Synthesis(SMDS) plant now operational at Bintulu, Malaysia, is the latest in a series of partnership projects between Shell companies and the people of Malaysia that stretches back for more than 100 years. The new plant uses advanced technology to convert natural gas, abundantly available from the Central Luconia field offshore Sarawak, into liquid fuels of high purity. These fuels can also be used as components to upgrade lower quality stock derived from conventional crude oil processing. In addition, the plant can produce high-value waxes, as well as feedstocks for detergents and lubricants. The product mix can be varied to meet market needs. The SMDS technology was developed at the Shell laboratory in Amsterdam(KSLA) over a period of 20 years. After commercial and technical assessment, Bintulu was chosen in preference to sites in other parts of the world as an appropriate location for the employment of SMDS technology in the first commercial plant. 2, record 11, English, - Shell%27s%20middle%20distillates%20synthesis%20technology

Most horizontal wells have targeted crude oil reservoirs. Its successful employment... has encouraged testing of it in many geographic regions and geologic situations. The technical objective of horizontal drilling is to provide economic benefits by exposing significantly more reservoir rock to the well bore surface than can be achieved via drilling of a conventional vertical well.... Horizontal bore hole length grew rapidly and horizontal displacements have now been extended to over 8, 000 feet. Some wells have featured multiple horizontal bores.... Based on curvature rate, the most commonly used classification for types of horizontal wells are as follows : ultra-short radius, short radius, medium radius and long radius. 1, record 15, English, - radius

[Géométrie des puits horizontaux.] Le rayon de courbure de la partie de trajectoire qui relie la section verticale à la section horizontale dépend de plusieurs facteurs : - le déplacement horizontal recherché entre la localisation en surface et l'entrée dans le réservoir, - la position verticale du début de la déviation («kick-off point»), - la longueur de drain horizontal à forer, - les contraintes de complétion. D'une manière générale les longs rayons de courbure, supérieurs à 250 mètres, permettent de forer de plus longues sections horizontales et facilitent la complétion. Les longs rayons de courbure sont surtout utilisés pour les puits de développement alors que les courts rayons s'appliquent essentiellement aux opérations de recomplétion. 1, record 15, French, - rayon%20de%20courbure

The blow case is used to move liquids in instances where a conventional pump would be unsuitable(e. g., to transfer crude oil and water mixtures where the agitation of a pump would create undesirable emulsions). Blow cases are widely used to handle acids in laboratories and chemical plants. 1, record 16, English, - blow%20case
