STAVANGER, Norway Equinor and its partners will end production from the Veslefrikk field in the Norwegian Sea in spring 2022.

Operations started in 1989 through Norways first floating production platform, and the facilities have since produced over 400 MMboe.

Investments to date total around NOK20 billion ($2.36 billion), and the fields productive life has been extended several times: it was originally expected to cease production in 2009.

Veslefrikk B is a semisubmersible production platform is connected to the fixed Veslefrikk A wellhead platform (converted from the drilling rig West Vision).

In 2002 the field also began processing from the Huldra field (since decommissioned) with a shared control room and crew.

Equinor operates Veslefrikk from its center in Sandsli outside Bergen, which also oversees operations at the Oseberg area.

In the fall of 2020, the company submitted its decommissioning plan to the Norwegian authorities. Its new Field Life Extension (FLX) business area has responsibility for implementing decommissioning projects on the Norwegian continental shelf.

Before Veslefrikk B can be towed to shore for dismantling in the fall of 2022, its topside systems must be shut down and cleaned, and oil and gas export pipelines cleaned and disconnected.

Over the years 74 wells have been drilled on the field. Archer started plugging wells from Veslefrikk B last month, with Baker and Ardyne supplying most other drilling and well services: a total of 24 wells will be plugged.

Veslefrikk A should be removed in 2025/26.

Before mid-2021 Equinor expects to award contracts for removal and dismantling of Veslefrikk A; dismantling and recycling of Veslefrikk B; and work on the seafloor associated with export pipeline cleaning and disconnection.

Further contracts will follow for the planning, management, and implementation of the towing of Veslefrikk B to shore.

Other partners in the license are Petoro, Repsol Norge, and Wintershall Dea Norge.

Objective: To observe the efficacy of Actinidia eriantha polysaccharide (AEPS) combined with PD1 antibody therapy in colorectal cancerxenograft mice.Methods: CT26 cells were inoculated into 80 C57BL/6 mice to establish the colorectal cancer xenograftmouse model. Mice were divided evenly into a model group, AEPS group, anti-PD1 group, and combined group. AEPS 5mL/kgday was given orally and 10 mg/kg anti-PD1 injected intravenously for 28 days. Tumor growth and mouse survival were observed. Tumor-cell proliferation and metastasis markers Ki67, N-cadherin, KLF4, and Oct4 were detected with immunochemistry and Western blotting, T-cell infiltration in spleens and tumors was detected with MTT and flow cytometry. IFN and TNF were detected with ELISA.Results: Tumor growth was significantly retarded and survival prolonged in the AEPS, anti-PD1, and combined groups. Ki67 expression decreased in the anti-PD1 and combined groups, and N-cadherin, KLF4, and Oct4 expression decreased in the AEPS and combined groups. IFN and TNF levels, T-cell infiltration in spleen, and tumor all increased distinctively in the AEPS and combined groups. The combined group showed better antitumor effects and life-extension effect than the other two groups.Conclusion: AEPS and PD1 antibody-combination therapy can suppresses tumor growth and prolong survival of colorectal cancerxenograft mice by regulating immunofunction, and the combined therapy showed better therapeutic efficacy than the single treatment.

Keywords: colorectal cancer, PD1 antibody, Actinidia eriantha polysaccharide, combined therapy

Can anyone perceive questions and provide answers in the midst of a vivid dream? It is possible, say researchers of a recent study whose results might sound like a real-life extension of the Hollywood blockbuster Inception.

The findings of the study indicate that it is possible for people while dreaming to follow instructions, do simple math, answer yes-or-no questions, or tell the difference between different sensory stimuli.

"We found that individuals in REM sleep can interact with an experimenter and engage in real-time communication," said researcher Ken Paller from Northwestern University in the US. According to the researcher, dreamers are capable of comprehending questions, engaging in working-memory operations and producing answers.

"Most people might predict that this would not be possiblethat people would either wake up when asked a question or fail to answer and certainly not comprehend a question without misconstruing it," Paller said. But the research shows that people in dreams could respond using eye movements or by contracting facial muscles.

For the study, published in the journal Current Biology, the researchers evaluated 36 people who aimed to have a lucid dream, in which a person is aware they're dreaming. The researchers refer to it as "interactive dreaming."

The researchers said that future studies of dreaming could use these same methods to assess cognitive abilities during dreams versus wake. Outside of the laboratory, the methods could be used to help people in various ways, such as solving problems during sleep or offering nightmare sufferers novel ways to cope, the team noted.

Strathclyde secures funding for low carbon SME projects – University of Strathclyde

Posted: at 2:19 pm

Two projects involving the University of Strathclyde have received funding from Scottish Enterprises Low Carbon Challenge Fund.

The Low Carbon Challenge Fund is a partnership between the Scottish Government and Scottish Enterprise with total investment of 2.79 million with 1.39 million from the European Regional Development Fund and match-funding from the projects.

The University of Strathclyde is leading one project which will help the aerospace, rail and renewables sector to address the challenges around life extension and repurposing of assets and builds on linked projects.

The university will work with companies across Scotland to support their journey from identifying opportunities to reduce waste to demonstrating the process towards a circular economy.

Dr David Butler, Reader in the Department of Design, Engineering and Manufacturing Management, said: The project provides for timely intervention and support for SMEs who wish to engage the three sectors and benefit from the opportunities arising from aircraft decommissioning and the life time extension of rail rolling stock and onshore wind turbines.

With the drive towards the Scottish Governments net-zero targets it is important that we look for environmentally sustainable routes to develop new products and services which demonstrate best green practices and encourage reuse rather than disposal at the end of the product life cycle.

A second project, led by the University of St Andrews, and partnering with Strathclyde will assist companies throughout the hydrogen supply chain from fuel cell manufacturers to energy specialists to create a strong Scottish original equipment manufacturing (OEM) base.

The project builds on wider strategic initiatives around the Scottish Governments hydrogen action plan and hydrogen policy statement.

The fund was set up last year and provided opportunities for public, third sector and academic institutions to, in turn, develop projects for SMEs to support low carbon innovation and manufacturing capabilities across Scotland.

Scottish Enterprise Chief Executive Linda Hanna said: The Low Carbon Challenge Fund is a catalyst to support economic opportunities in Scotland and nurture businesses to develop net zero products, processes and services.

I look forward to seeing these pioneering projects take shape as they have the potential to transform the way companies work whether it is reducing manufacturing waste, future-proofing transport to developing new hydrogen products.

The three successful projects will harness the expertise of public sector partnerships and engage businesses in Scotland towards the transition to a net zero nation.

The university will establish a business advice service, seminars and provide access to testing equipment in addition to supporting early stage prototyping to identify innovation opportunities.

Carlos Correa: Extension talks ‘are nowhere right now’ with Astros – Houston Chronicle

Posted: at 2:19 pm

Chandler Rome,Staff writer

Feb. 22, 2021Updated: Feb. 22, 2021 1:05p.m.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. Carlos Correa said there have been no talks about a long-term contract extension between his representation and the Astros.

"There's no talks right now about that. Talks are nowhere right now," Correa said. "I leave that up to my agent and the organization, but right now, there's no talks about it. I haven't heard from them since the arbitration was settled. That's where we are right now."

Last month, Correa told a team-sponsored radio show that he'd love to be "an Astro for life." He's among a star-studded group of shortstops set to enter free agency following the 2021 season.

"I'm not scared of free agency, but as I've said before and shared before, I feel like this is the team I grew up in. I feel like this is my team. I feel like I belong here. But they have to feel the same way."

Correa added "ifthe Astros want to extend me, I would like to get it done before the season starts."

Chandler Rome joined the Houston Chronicle in 2018 to cover the Astros after spending one year in Tuscaloosa covering Alabama football - during which Nick Saban asked if he attended college. He did, at LSU, where he covered the Tigers baseball team for nearly four years. He covered most of the Astros' 2015 playoff run, too, as an intern for MLB.com

Francisco Lindor open to Mets extension, but talks haven’t started: ‘I’ve never been scared of free agency’ – Yahoo Sports

Posted: at 2:19 pm

Francisco Lindor during spring training Zoom on Feb. 22 2021

With Opening Day just over a month away, the Mets and Francisco Lindor have not had any talks about a contract extension. But there is "mutual interest" in getting one done, Lindor said on Monday.

"We haven't found the time," Lindor told reporters via Zoom. "I obviously got to get to know the organization, get to know the people. And they have to get to know me. If something comes up, we'll see in the future.

"That's between my agent and Sandy (Alderson) and the rest of the staff. I'm just focused on my business and that's doing things the right way here. There's been no insistence. I think it's too early, I think. I'm not sure."

In addition to Lindor, the Mets are also open to a long-term extension with Michael Conforto, who -- like Lindor -- is set to hit free agency after the season.

And while the Mets and Lindor haven't yet had serious talks about a deal (something acting GM Zack Scott recently said would likely happen at spring training), Lindor said there is interest from both sides.

"There's mutual interest. Like I said earlier, I've never been shy about an extension," Lindor explained. "Cleveland did what they had to do. They couldn't keep me. They weren't in the position to keep me. They decided to go in a different route. I've never been shy about an extension, but everything has to make sense. It has to make sense. If it doesn't make sense, then that's just not fair."

Asked about the Opening Day deadline for an extension that he loosely put in place during his introductory news conference as a Met, Lindor said the point of the deadline is to keep the focus on the field once the regular season starts.

"The reason why I have said I don't want it to (go beyond) Opening Day is because as players we have a duty. And the duty is show up and win," he said. "It would be unfair for me and the rest of the team to have an ongoing conversation about extending -- whether it's me or other players -- and we show up on Opening Day and our mind is somewhere else and we don't focus on our duty."

Asked if the 14-year, $340 million deal Fernando Tatis Jr. recently signed with the San Diego Padres would impact him, Lindor instead focused on Tatis' achievement and mentioned that he texted to congratulate him, adding about his own future:

"I've never been scared of free agency. It's not like I got to rush to sign a deal or I can't wait for free agency. I live life on a daily basis."

Opportunity Zone Extension Proposed in the House – Motley Fool

Posted: at 2:19 pm

The centerpiece of the Opportunity Zone (OZ) Program would get two more years of life under bipartisan legislation introduced this month in the U.S. House of Representatives. The Opportunity Zones Extension Act of 2021 would extend by two years -- until 2028 -- the ability for taxpayers to defer capital gains taxes by investing in qualified opportunity funds (QOFs).

"The Opportunity Zones Program was making a difference in East Tennessee communities and underserved areas around the country before the COVID-19 pandemic rocked our economy. Extending this program would give investors additional time to provide meaningful financial support to businesses and create quality, good-paying jobs in opportunity zones," says Rep. Tim Burchett, the Knoxville Republican who introduced the bill along with Texas Democrat Henry Cuellar.

Opportunity zones were created with bipartisan support as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 to incent investment in economically distressed areas, about 8,700 of them in areas designated by census tract across the country.

Generous deferments on capital gains invested and then realized within the QOF investments themselves have attracted billions of dollars into QOFs, although just how much is unclear.

For instance, the White House Council on Economic Advisors pegged it at $75 billion in a report last August. Burchett's news release said $52 billion before the pandemic struck. And Novogradac, the San Francisco-based consultancy that operates the Opportunity Zone Working Group (OZWG), says that 659 of the 969 QOFs it's tracking have reported dollar amount of equity they've raised and that as of year's end it was at $15.16 billion, up $3 billion since August.

"Despite unprecedented economic challenges, people continue to invest in opportunity zones," John Sciarretti, head of the OZWG and a Novogradac partner working out of its Dover, Ohio, office, says in his firm's Feb. 3 news release. "As time passes and investors become more comfortable and familiar with investing in opportunity funds, we expect the amount of investment to continue to grow."

Some stakeholders in the Opportunity Zone Program and QOFs see 2021 as the year when the program begins to gain significant traction as all that money begins to go to work, primarily in residential and commercial projects.

How this latest bill fares in Congress also will be a bellwether for the program, which provides tax breaks the likes of which were seen as possible targets by an incoming Biden administration. However, the tradeoff in economic development and job creation is seen as a win-win, and the program is gaining interest both from prominent wealth and investors more of the Main Street variety.

It would seem the OZ Program has a decent chance of continued support in Congress and the White House, although it's also safe to assume some regulatory reform will be coming, particularly in the area of reporting on the program's impact.

Perhaps the impetus to report progress as a means of justifying their existence will help push QOF managers to put that money to work sooner than later.
