Massive Volcanic Eruptions Control of Climate Paleo-Records. This paper focus on comparing cause-effect of massive eruptions that took place in two of these localities; the Siberian Traps at the end of Permian, and the Deccan Traps lava flows formed at the K/T transition boundary, these massive eruptions having remarkable correlations with green-house paleoclimates.. 2019.

Final Year Project of Master in Oil Gas and Energy Engineering. 2017. Shahzad, Yasir. Solutions to Geo-Hazard related problems in Offshore gas pipeline project from Aphrodite gas field, Cyprus to Egypt.. This paper proposes the solutions and recommendation in Egypt-Cyprus offshore pipeline project’s challenges. Aphrodite gas field is located in Block 12 of Cypriot Exclusive Economic Zone. Aphrodite field is about to produce 6-7 trillion cubic feet gas.. 2017. Shahzad, Yasir. Executive summary on "Safety of offshore oil and gas operations: Lessons from past accident analysis". The offshore industry in different Member States operates to different environmental, health and safety standards. To date EU legislation does not cover all the aspects of the offshore oil and gas industry and national legislation is very different between Member States.. 2016. Shahzad, Yasir. Gas Chromatography- Mass Spectrometry in Reservoir Engineering. Gas chromatography-Mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is a systematic procedure which is used in a range of forensic discipline for example toxicology, drug chemistry, petroleum engineering and reservoir engineering etc. There is a chemical analyzer, which is used to detect and identify chemical compounds of interest which can include drugs, poisons, fire, debris, explosives and gunshot residues.. 2016. Shahzad, Yasir; Sohail Tanveer; Abdul Razzaq. A Hybrid AC/DC Microgrid and Its Coordination Control Smart Power Grid Management. This report paper shows a hybrid dc/ac mirco grid. The reduction process of multiple ac-dc-ac and dc-ac-dc from dc/ac grid individually will be shown in this paper. In bidirectional multiple converters there are the connections of both dc and ac networks which already functioning in hybrid grid.. 2016. Shahzad, Yasir. Evaluation of the Enhance Oil Recovery (EOR) Potential of Water and Gas Injection in Oil Shale Reservoirs. From oils operators interests has been made by producing oil from unconventional shale reservoirs due to the relatively unpretentious natural gas price. The ultimate recovery of shale resources is still low from 5 to 10 percents assuming even though many incredible work on it has been done to develop shale resources.. 2016. Shahzad, Yasir; Zeeshan Ashraf. http://ssrn.com/abstract=2478558. Hypothetical approach to estimate recovery of shale gas in lower cretaceous Sember formation of lower Indus Basin, Pakistan, using simulation techniques. Estimation of contacted gas-in-place/reserves in unconventional (low/ultra-low permeability) gas reservoirs is a problematic issue, and the uncertainty associated with the estimate is relatively high. Gas shales have become an attractive target because they represent a huge resource and as the price of gas rises, the economic challenge of their development is reduced.. 2014.

The intention of the cram was to do research about the connection between of job performance and conscientiousness. In order to scrutinize the facts and figures primary data compilation method that is questionnaires was used. Much has been made of Conscientiousness as a predictor of job performance.. 2014.
