Abstract: The invention relates to a polymer transport and distribution system comprising a vessel, pipeline or network of pipes containing polymer mother solution, and one or more pumps for transporting polymer mother solution from a first location to one or more injection well sites at a second remote location, each injection well comprising a polymer mother solution input feed line, a water input feed line, and a second pump for controlling mother solution flow rate and pressure upstream from the water input feed line, for producing polymer daughter solution from polymer mother solution and water, and injecting the resulting polymer daughter solution into an oil or gas field well. Also provided are methods of distributing polymer to one or more injection well sites in an oil or gas field.

Abstract: Investors purchase shares of a closed-end investment fund of tuition package repurchase agreements with a university. On a specified date, the university receives cash based on their current tuition rates times the number of repurchase agreements into which they have entered. As the contractual repurchase agreements reach their specified maturity dates, the university is required to repay the fund in an amount corresponding to tuition rates prevailing at the stated maturity date. Monies collected from universities would be used to repay investors commensurate with the shares held.

Abstract: A system for transportation and storage of liquid carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) at low pressures in the region of 1600-2300 KPa comprises a mobile supply tank (20a, 20b) and an on side storage tank (70). The mobile supply tank (20a, 20b) and the on site storage tank (70) are thermally insulated and each tank is refrigerated by a refrigeration system (71) with an evaporator located in the upper gas space of each tank. The on site storage tank (70) is filled with liquid CO.sub.2 by a conduit (36a) extending from near the bottom of the mobile supply tank (20a, 20b) via a filling port (72) on the on site storage tank to an opening near the bottom of the on site storage tank. A closed circuit system is achieved by a further conduit (37a) extending via an outlet port (73) from the gas space near the top of the site storage tank (70) to a gas space near the top of the mobile supply tank (20a, 20b).
