The Tampa Port Authority document summarizes a public-private partnership project to build a new rail-to-pipeline ethanol facility at the Port of Tampa. It involved over 13,000 feet of new rail construction and 2,720 feet of pipeline installed by various engineering firms. The facility will handle over 300 million gallons of ethanol annually to reduce dependence on foreign energy and cut emissions, truck traffic, and highway delays in the region. It was completed on time and on budget despite heavy rainfall.

Onshore UK Shale Gas Exploration: An Update From Cuadrilla’s LeadingOperatio...Huw Clarke, MBA
I am a fan of pictures and figures when presenting, so I'll let you choose the words, or feel free to reach out. The presentation is split into thirds as follows:
1) The case for indigenous gas in the UK. Exploring the UK power mix and the role of gas globally as we forecast demand out to 2040
2) The 14 orders of magnitude of the Bowland shale, starting at the Basin scale working down to the nanometer mineral.
3) The operating environment and how Cuadrilla approaches this dynamic and high profile landscape.

Spectra Energy Pipeline Proposal for Maine Public Utilities CommissionMarcellus Drilling News
A proposal for a pipeline that will bring abundant, cheap and clean-burning Marcellus Shale gas to New England, helping to reduce the cost of both natural gas and electricity (since much of New England's electricity is generated by natural gas-fired plants). The Spectra plan to build a pipeline dubbed Access Northeast competes with a similar plan from Kinder Morgan to expand the Tennessee Gas Pipeline across Massachusetts.

Fuel efficiency optimization of tanker with focus on hullPradeep Jagdale
Fuel efficiency optimization is of crucial importance in industries. Marine transportation industry is no exception. Multi-disciplinary optimization is a branch of engineering which uses optimization methods for solving problems in which the objective function is simultaneously affected by several different factors. As one of the tools for this type of optimization, genetic algorithm has a high quality and validity.
The objective of the present study is to optimize fuel efficiency in tankers. All presented equations and conditions are valid for tankers.
Fuel consumption efficiency of tankers is a function of various influential factors. Given the lack of equations for describing and modeling these factors and unavailability of valid performance database for inferring the equations as well as the lack of literature in this field, the preset study includes five optimizing factors affecting the fuel consumption efficiency of a tanker in genetic algorithm by using the genetic algorithm toolbox of MATLAB software package.

Big infrastructure is building Canada’s futureAECOM
Large-scale infrastructure spending in Canada is five times more what it was a decade ago. Infrastructure, in the broadest sense, whether public or private, is the facilities and structures that support society. Investing in infrastructure helps address current needs, capture new opportunities and solve persistent challenges. We profile seven of Canada’s biggest infrastructure projects and their significance to the country’s future.
We've been working on tunnelling projects since 1961. In total, we’ve been involved in over 780km of tunnelling projects worldwide.
This slideshow provides just a small selection of our tunnelling projects from around the world.

The Harbor Brook CSO 018 Constructed Wetlands Pilot Treatment System Project serves the dual purposes of treating CSO 018 overflows currently discharged into Harbor Brook while also acting as a demonstration project to test the effectiveness of three types of constructed treatment wetland systems.

Glenwood Forest Tank Replacement Projectglenwood94901
This project involves replacement of the existing redwood tank at the Glenwood Forest Tank Site with one 90,000 gal bolted steel tank.
The project is one of the District's Capital Improvement Projects, which have been chosen because of the need for additional water storage in the area and also improve for fire protection. All work will be done on the District's property.
The project is in the design stage. Construction is scheduled to start in October 2009.
Presentation by Chi Cheung (415 945 1572) from the Marin Municipal Water District given at meeting on August 18th, 2009 at Glenwood Elementary School.

5. Project Facts
Storage and distribution services provided by the
Central Florida Pipeline
A subsidiary of Kinder Morgan
6. Project Facts
The First Port “Rail to Pipeline” facility in the United
States
7. Project Facts
Accomplished completion of “The Loop”
Since the 1970’s, the Port and CSXT acknowledged the
need to construct the rail connection required to link the
east and west sides of the Hooker’s Point Peninsula to
allow for more cost effective movement of goods
throughout the Port of Tampa
8. Project Facts
The first “on dock rail service” to the Port of Tampa’s
Marine Container Terminal
9. Project Facts
13,883 LF of rail constructed
2,720 LF of 12 “ stainless steel pipeline installed
Ethanol is pumped through the 12” pipeline at a
rate of 3,000 GPM
10. Outcome
The facility will handle over 300 Million gallons of
ethanol each year, with the ability to handle 3 times
the amount, thereby reducing dependence on foreign
energy sources.
11. Outcome
The facility will replace enough gasoline to reduce CO2
emissions by 1.1 billion pounds in the first year alone.
12. Outcome
44,369 trucks will be diverted from the regional
highways in the first year of operation
Highway delays (due to less trucks hauling
ethanol) will be reduced by 24,000 hours.
U.S.EPA review of the Environmental Assessment
resulted in a FONSI (Finding of No significant
Impact)
13. Safety
The containment cells are capable of handling the
volume of four (4) rail cars , during offloading the
project’s storm water outfall is closed off from the
bay, so that even if a spill occurs, it will never reach
the bay.
