Grand Trunk Railway way bills, 1900

The Grand Trunk Railway initially ran from Montreal to Toronto, then with expansion of Canada operated to British Columbia, linking major cities together. In 1900, two way bill forms were completed; one for the Niagara Falls Wine Co. and the other for T.G. Bright & Co. Both companies were headquartered in Niagara Falls, Ont. The consignors were John Mayberry & Co. and John Eleareys?.

Revisión y análisis de la estructura de costos del transporte terrestre de crudo en Colombia - Pacific Rubiales Energy 2012

Se espera que la producción de petróleo en Colombia supere para 2015 el millón de barriles por día. Sin embargo, a 2012, tres años antes de lo esperado, nos acercamos a la meta produciendo cerca de 900kbpd. Este progresivo crecimiento indica que es urgente fortalecer la infraestructura de transporte para crudo en el país, apoyándose en alternativas secundarias como el transporte de crudo por carrotanque para alivianar el sistema, siendo esta modalidad una “válvula de escape” para las petroleras. Consientes de los retos que esto implica, es necesario encontrar una estructura de costos óptima que permita fijar fletes razonables y competitivos en el mercado de transporte de crudo, sabiendo que un flete de estas características f ideliza y alinea a los proveedores (en este caso las empresas transportadoras prestadoras del servicio), a buscar el mismo objetivo: crecimiento. De esta forma Pacific Rubiales, la segunda petrolera con mayor presencia en el país podrá abrazar su operación, estableciendo no solo una sólida estrategia de evacuación del crudo por los oleoductos, sino a su vez un sistema efectivo de transporte por tierra, donde todos los involucrados en la cadena de valor se encuentren altamente fidelizados y satisfechos con las condiciones de operación que brinde la empresa; Traduciéndolo en pocas palabras, a un esquema con una operación segura, confiable, rentable y donde todos ganan. Es importante resaltar que la estructura actual para la definición de fletes, planteada por el gobierno a través del Software Sice, no se ajusta a la operación de petroleras como Pacific Rubiales, debido a las mismas características de la operación (ubicación de campos) y, a variables fijas en el sistema de información como: el real consumo y rendimiento del combustible en las rutas establecidas y, los costos de mantenimiento.

Estructura organizacional del área de responsabilidad social de Pacific E&P

Este artículo tiene como objetivo describir la estructura del área de Responsabilidad Social de Pacific E&P, mediante un proceso que explique el funcionamiento y desarrollo de la estructura de RSE. Este trabajo se desarrolla bajo una matriz estratégica la cual incluye variables como: evolución del área (historia), plataforma estratégica (plan de acción que desarrolla una ventaja competitiva de la empresa), división del trabajo (Fragmentación de trabajo y especialización entre sus fuerzas laborales) y por último la coordinación del trabajo (sincronización de fuerzas laborales). Los resultados que se obtienen de este estudio mostrarán las distintas unidades de trabajo de la organización y la forma de trabajar de la misma, bajo el marco de la Responsabilidad Social Corporativa.

Geochemistry of basement carbonates from ODP Site 801 in the western Pacific Ocean

Many studies argue, based partly on Pb isotopic evidence, that recycled, subducted slabs reside in the mantle source of ocean island basalts (OIB) (Hofmann and White, 1982, doi:10.1016/0012-821X(82)90161-3; Weaver, 1991 doi:10.1016/0012-821X(91)90217-6; Lassiter, and Hauri, 1998, doi:10.1016/S0012-821X(98)00240-4). Such models, however, have remained largely untested against actual subduction zone inputs, due to the scarcity of comprehensive measurements of both radioactive parents (Th and U) and radiogenic daughter (Pb) in altered oceanic crust (AOC). Here, we discuss new, comprehensive measurements of U, Th, and Pb concentrations in the oldest AOC, ODP Site 801, and consider the effect of subducting this crust on the long-term Pb isotope evolution of the mantle. The upper 500 m of AOC at Site 801 shows >4-fold enrichment in U over pristine glass during seafloor alteration, but no net change to Pb or Th. Without subduction zone processing, ancient AOC would evolve to low 208Pb/206Pb compositions unobserved in the modern mantle (Hart and Staudigel, 1989 [Isotopic characterization and identification of recycled components, in: Crust/Mantle Recycling at Convergence Zones, Eds. S.R. Hart, L. Gqlen, NATO ASI Series. Series C: Mathematical and Physical Sciences 258, pp. 15-28, D. Reidel Publishing Company, Dordrecht-Boston, 1989]). Subduction, however, drives U-Th-Pb fractionation as AOC dehydrates in the earth's interior. Pacific arcs define mixing trends requiring 8-fold enrichment in Pb over U in AOC-derived fluid. A mass balance across the Mariana subduction zone shows that 44-75% of Pb but <10% of U is lost from AOC to the arc, and a further 10-23% of Pb and 19-40% of U is lost to the back-arc. Pb is lost shallow and U deep from subducted AOC, which may be a consequence of the stability of phases binding these elements during seafloor alteration: U in carbonate and Pb in sulfides. The upper end of these recycling estimates, which reflect maximum arc and back-arc growth rates, remove enough Pb and U from the slab to enable it to evolve rapidly (<<0.5 Ga) to sources suitable to explain the 208Pb/206Pb isotopic array of OIB, although these conditions fail to simultaneously satisfy the 207Pb/206Pb system. Lower growth rates would require additional U loss (29%) at depths beyond the zones of arc and back-arc magmagenesis, which would decrease upper mantle kappa (232Th/238U) over time, consistent with one solution to the "kappa conundrum" (Elliott et al., 1999, doi:10.1016/S0012-821X(99)00077-1). The net effects of alteration (doubling of l [238U/204Pb]) and subduction (doubling of omega [232Th/204Pb]) are sufficient to create the Pb isotopic signatures of oceanic basalts.
