The light blue colored area represents the lower section of the Birds Nest. Enhanced recovery wells were added into the Google Earth Pro model to give an idea of how many Class II wells are injecting in the Birds Nest for disposal or enhance recovery. The blue colored dots in Figure 4 represent the enhance recovery wells. Enhance recovery wells inject produced water to help increase the production oil and gas. The produce water results from these wells were not selected because the injected…

Astrolabes, an analysis in Islamic context Astronomical instruments from the ancient world were generally built upon various mathematical principles and hold much sophistication in their use and form.
