This document provides an overview of oil field drill rig safety. It defines key safety terms and identifies common hazards like catheads, poor machine guarding, rotary tables, and high pressure hoses. It emphasizes that over 90% of accidents are preventable through safe acts and conditions. Pictures showcase proper safety procedures and identify unsafe acts like working without fall protection or near unguarded machines. The goal is to educate oil field workers on hazards and safety best practices to prevent accidents.
Overall Safety of plants and Personals, it's really important to know about the safety precautions before you start to do any thing in the operation side. Particularly in the Process Industries or where there lot of reasons of risk.

Water scarcity is the lack of fresh water resources to meet the standard water demand. There are two type of water scarcity. One is physical. The other is economic water scarcity.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Final project report on grocery store management system..pdfKamal Acharya
In today’s fast-changing business environment, it’s extremely important to be able to respond to client needs in the most effective and timely manner. If your customers wish to see your business online and have instant access to your products or services.
Online Grocery Store is an e-commerce website, which retails various grocery products. This project allows viewing various products available enables registered users to purchase desired products instantly using Paytm, UPI payment processor (Instant Pay) and also can place order by using Cash on Delivery (Pay Later) option. This project provides an easy access to Administrators and Managers to view orders placed using Pay Later and Instant Pay options.
In order to develop an e-commerce website, a number of Technologies must be studied and understood. These include multi-tiered architecture, server and client-side scripting techniques, implementation technologies, programming language (such as PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and MySQL relational databases. This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

5. 5
More than 90 % of all accidents are avoidable, being caused
by human error rather than by mechanical failure.
It is extremely important that every person on a drilling rig
develop a sense of safety in drilling operations.
That person must use this sense in combination with the kind of
good judgment it takes to drive a car safely, or to do anything
else in a safe manner.

IT’S THE LAW !
In the State of Texas, all persons working in the oil field where
H2S concentrations are known MUST complete a H2S
certification course annually.
The objective is to educate employees about the physical &
chemical properties, toxicity, concentration levels, personal
protective equipment use, detection measures, rescue and first
aid.
The best way way to reduce the chance of employee exposure to
H2S is to provided the best possible training, provide appropriate
personal protective equipment, and ensure employs follow the
correct work procedures, rules and requirements.
25. 25
COMMON SOURCES OF
H2S
Naturally in nature
Oil Fields – Mines – Volcanoes –Geothermal Exploration
Through decay of organic matter
Fishing industry – Tanneries - Manure Processing
Municipal sewers - Brewery Industry – Landfills
Chemical Processes
By Product – Catalyst – Felt Making – Asphalt Roofing
26. 26
H2S or Toxic Gas Exposure
Hydrogen Sulfide – characterized by an odor
of rotten eggs. A very small concentration
can be fatal. When encountered, employees must wear
approved type masks when their work requires them to be
exposed to the gas,in any way.
27. 27
H2S or Toxic Gas Exposure
Hydrogen Sulfide is highly toxic, colorless, and heavier
than air. It has the odor of rotten eggs, initially.
Most frequently encountered in the production and refining of high sulfur
petroleum and in natural gas. It burns with a blue flame and produces Sulfur
Dioxide.
It forms an explosive mixture with air. The LFL is 4.3%
and the UFL is 45.5%.
28. 28
H2S or Toxic Gas Exposure
Its odor is NOT a reliable warning signal because
higher concentrations of the gas temporarily
destroys the sense of smell. This is the primary
reason for employees not detecting the presence
of H2S and consequently inhaling a lethal
amount. The only positive means is by testing
with an approved H2S detector. DO NOT RELY
SOLELY ON THE SENSE OF SMELL!

Summary
Oilfield Safety is no different than Safety
anywhere else. Different tools, different
equipment, but the same COMMOM SENSE
principles.
Look for Hazards, protect you and your co-
worker. Remember, Identify the Hazard,
Develop a plan to fix it and then Fix it!
Fix Your Hazards = No Accidents
Get everyone interested. Its for you good and
theirs.
