Ice dams are literally dams of ice that form on roofs and cause water to back up. Ice dams form when the snow that touches the roof melts, and then that water freezes again before running off the roof. This usually happens at the edges of roofs, but not always. If you’d prefer to watch a video that explains everything in this marathon blog post, I’ve created a marathon video that covers all of this. This video is a heavily-edited, stripped-down version of my one-hour class on ice dams.

Sir, my question is on the P&L side. One is looking at the 3 items. Given that rupee-dollar on a quarter-on-quarter basis has rupee strengthened, is there any ForEx gain that we have? And second is if you can comment a bit on the depreciation charges, which has slightly been on the higher side. I mean in terms of — because if I’m correct, we do not have specific plant that we have kind of commissioned in this quarter. And third is, sir, on the balance sheet side, if you can also talk a bit more on their inventory. Where has the inventory been on the higher side? Is it primarily on the finished goods? And what is the reason behind it to build this kind of inventory ahead of the season?

Twenty-two months have now passed since the tragic fire which had occurred in the Grenfell Tower Block in North Kensington in London on June 14th, 2017.  Much of the footage that I’d watched on television news shows, as well as articles that I’d read in newspapers about the tragedy, were focused on the materials that were used to manufacture the exterior cladding of the tower block.  While the cladding obviously was dangerous, it was not the only factor which contributed to this tragedy. If automatic overhead sprinkler systems had been required in apartments towers in the U.K. when the Lancaster West Estate had been built back in the 1960s, or if the tower complex had been retrofitted with sprinkler systems at a later date, the June 2017 fire would likely have been extinguished within the first couple of minutes after it began.  Future tragic tower fires are in fact preventable, and this involves implementing a technology which has been well understood since the 1870s.

Yes, there is. So there is three ways to think about the gross margin on these projects. If you get the process technology and equipment suite together, that’s the highest gross margin combination. I mean, that’s when I commented earlier, kind of, think of it as 33% to 40% for these projects, that’s at the higher end of that. If you are a brazed, plus a cold box combination, plus air cooled, then you’re in that mid-30%s range, kind of low-to-mid 30%s. And if you are strictly air cooled, you’re in the mid 20%s.

27 March. The recent award of city gas distribution (CGD) rights to Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) such as Indian Oil Corp (IOC) and Bharat Petroleum Corp Ltd (BPCL) will help them diversify and maintain their market shares in the domestic cooking and auto fuel markets over the long term, according to Fitch Ratings. IOC and Hindustan Petroleum Corp Ltd (HPCL) won CGD rights in nine geographical areas each last month, and BPCL got rights to two areas. BPCL won the rights to 11 geographical areas in a previous auction in September 2018 as well. Fitch said it expects the state-owned oil marketing companies’ increased presence in city gas distribution to help them diversify from their oil refining and marketing business and reinforce their existing strong positions in the auto fuel market, with piped natural gas (PNG) usage gradually competing with auto fuels and replacing liquefied petroleum gas in the domestic cooking fuel market. Natural gas consumption increased by about 3 percent in the April 2018-January 2019 period and 4.5 percent in the financial year ended March 2018.

“We took the original front office of the building and turned it into a really inviting, motivational kind of space for what the rest of the building could look like,” he said. “It feels like we’re breathing life into the place in the style of Mainstem Malt.”

The diesel capacity has been created at Dahej. As soon as we have the Sarigam plant up and running, both the plants together will bring in the total capacity. We can start it from the day when we start Sarigam.

29 March. Romania’s government will maintain a 2 percent tax on turnover for all energy companies except coal-fired power plants and will still cap gas prices for households but not for industrial consumers, Prime Minister (PM) Viorica Dancila said. Initially, the government wanted to cap gas prices at 68 lei ($16) per megawatt hour until February 2022 for households as well as a list of 83 industrial consumers, according to energy regulator ANRE.

Zawaideh, though, is happy with what they’ve done so far. “We developed the very first practical upper body exoskeleton,” he said. “It’s light enough and breathable enough for people who work hard. It moves with the person’s natural motions, so it help without being in the way. And it relieves back and shoulder strain.”

That five-year pact runs from this year through to 2023 and targets oil, gas and chemicals plants, as well as floating production, storage and offloading vessels and floating LNG vessels.
