Our solution for Paper A 2024 - Deploying liquid into a well
Here's our attempt at this year's paper A.
The topic was a device for deploying a liquid into a well, and to a method of treating a well using the device. While the device is quite structural/mechanical, aspects of its use (e.g., use of glue as the deployment liquid) were more chemistry-themed. A main problem seemed to be to draft the device in such a way that it is novel over D2 (which actually is from a more remote field, namely turbines).

Please do not post your comments anonymously - it is allowed, but it makes responding more difficult and rather clumsy ("Dear Mr/Mrs/Ms Anonymous of 02-03-2021 22:23"), whereas using your real name or a nickname is more personal, more interesting and makes a more attractive conversation. You do not need to log in or make an account - it is OK to just put your (nick) name at the end of your post.
