Development of a procedure for the assessment of microbiologically influenced corrosion
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-16)Operating offshore oil and gas production facilities is often associated with high risk. In order to manage the risk, operators commonly use aids to support decision making in the establishment of a maintenance and ... -
Development of a surrogate model of a trans-critical CO2 heat pump for use in operations optimization using an artificial neural network
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Conventional physics-based models can demand substantial computational resources when employed for operational optimization. To allow faster system simulations that can be employed for operational optimization, a surrogate ... -
Development of a Thermal Based Flow Measurement Technique for Very Low Flow Velocities
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06)A measurement technique for very low flow velocities based on thermal measurements is proposed as an alternative for measurements in larger- diameter pipes. The velocity of a locally accelerated thermal flow is calculated ... -
The development of a tool to assess medical students’ non-technical skills–The Norwegian medical students’ non-technical skills (NorMS-NTS)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Purpose New physicians need to master non-technical skills (NTS), as high levels of NTS have been shown to increase patient safety. It has also been shown that NTS can be improved through training. This study aimed to ... -
Development of a Wave-Driven Pump for Energy Production
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)Since the year of 2014, the oil and gas industry worldwide has experienced a backlash from years of prosperous field developments and implementation of technology for improved recovery. Overproduction of oil and gas has ... -
Development of a work process for condition management of topside static mechanical equipment
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2011;, Master thesis, 2011)Degradation and fatigue of static equipment is common in the offshore industry. The combination of saltwater, temperature, and humidity can significantly reduce the integrity of static process equipment, and thereby increase ... -
