How Do You Reduce the Oil on Your Face?

How do you reduce the oil on your face?

I think the best thing for this (I have oily skin too) is to have a good skincare regime, even if you are male (you do not have to tell anyone). Use a cleanser on your face to clean off dead skin, then toner to tighten pores and reduce oil secretion, and finally a light oil-free moisturizer. I started doing this twice a day and found it really helped. Other things that are good are facial saunas (just fill a saucepan with boiling water and a few drops of tea tree essential oil, put a tea towel over your head and let the steam open up your pores. Then wipe your face with a clean towel and apply a light moisturizer.) The key is not to over clean your face, as this will in turn stimulate oil production. It's a normal thing in teenage years and you will probably grow out of it. In the meantime if your skin is getting greasy in the day, lightly pat it with a tissue, or if you are a girl, apply a formulated foundation (Clinique's superbalanced range is great) and powder to help suppress greasy patches. Hope that helps!

As protest to the war lets all stop buying and using oil products. Any up for it?

Curtail your use of oil products for several reasons. The revenue from oil goes into the pockets of those that despise us and helps to fund jihad. Using oil fouls the environment. Conserving on oil puts money in your pocket and allows you to spend it on more important things. The point is, cut back on your use of oil!

I’m getting confused over the different terminology used in extracting oil from old wells.?

IOR means "Improved Oil Recovery" and EOR stands for "Enhanced Oil Recovery". One term deals with the measurement, or how great an increase of oil production there is from a well, in contrast to the output at a given point in time. EOR refers to advancements in technology and equipment that is separate from conventional extractions means. Let's use a real example. Team Resources has acquired leases on old oil fields in Kansas so that they can apply new techniques and equipment to increase the output of what were considered to be exhausted, mature wells. In their case, one of the technologies involves lateral drilling using Radial Jet Technology. Kevin Boyles, CEO of Team Resources LLC, has initiated a program of oil recovery that goes well beyond conventional systems previously in place. This is what would be referred to as EOR. When the system is in full operation, Team Resources will measure the output from the wells as compared to previous amounts. In this way they can evaluate the success of their efforts. In summary: EOR is how you do it, and IOR is how much you get for doing it.

Oil Production

Cables revealed that the US was warned by Sadad al Husseini, a senior Saudi government oil executive, that the country's oil reserves are overstated by as much as 300 billion barrels (40% of the claimed reserve). It is therefore not possible for Saudi Arabia to prevent the oil price from rising.

Oil production and smuggling in ISIL

Oil production and smuggling was the largest source of revenue for the finances of ISIL (the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) in Syria and Iraq until the complete loss of its territory in 2019. Most oil extracted was distributed for use within the Islamic State, but some was also smuggled to surrounding states at below market price. Oil products, e.g. petrol and mazout, were the backbone of the economy of ISIL-controlled areas, with mazout being the preferred power source for small-scale electricity generators. Not all energy production was provided by oil, and some electric power supply was continued to Syrian government-held areas. Oil production in the Islamic State developed over time, reaching its peak in 2014. Due to military interventions, ISIL subsequently lost all of its territory in Syria and Iraq.

Separator (oil production)

The term separator in oilfield terminology designates a pressure vessel used for separating well fluids produced from oil and gas wells into gaseous and liquid components. A separator for petroleum production is a large vessel designed to separate production fluids into their constituent components of oil, gas and water. A separating vessel may be referred to in the following ways: Oil and gas separator, Separator, Stage separator, Trap, Knockout vessel (Knockout drum, knockout trap, water knockout, or liquid knockout), Flash chamber (flash vessel or flash trap), Expansion separator or expansion vessel, Scrubber (gas scrubber), Filter (gas filter). These separating vessels are normally used on a producing lease or platform near the wellhead, manifold, or tank battery to separate fluids produced from oil and gas wells into oil and gas or liquid and gas. An oil and gas separator generally includes the following essential components and features: 1. A vessel that includes (a) primary separation device and/or section, (b) secondary "gravity" settling (separating) section, (c) mist extractor to remove small liquid particles from the gas, (d) gas outlet, (e) liquid settling (separating) section to remove gas or vapor from oil (on a three-phase unit, this section also separates water from oil), (f) oil outlet, and (g) water outlet (three-phase unit). 2. Adequate volumetric liquid capacity to handle liquid surges (slugs) from the wells and/or flowlines. 3. Adequate vessel diameter and height or length to allow most of the liquid to separate from the gas so that the mist extractor will not be flooded. 4. A means of controlling an oil level in the separator, which usually includes a liquid-level controller and a diaphragm motor valve on the oil outlet. 5. A back pressure valve on the gas outlet to maintain a steady pressure in the vessel. 6. Pressure relief devices. Separators work on the principle that the three components have different densities, which allows them to stratify when moving slowly with gas on top, water on the bottom and oil in the middle. Any solids such as sand will also settle in the bottom of the separator. The functions of oil and gas separators can be divided into the primary and secondary functions which will be discussed later on.
