• Downhole Temperature Modeling for Non-Newtonian Fluids in ERD Wells 

      Sui, Dan; Langåker, Vebjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Having precise information of fluids' temperatures is a critical process during planning of drilling operations, especially for extended reach drilling (ERD). The objective of this paper is to develop an accurate temperature ...
    • Finding Clusters in Petri Nets An approach based on GPenSIM 

      Davidrajuh, Reggie; Krenczyk, Damian; Skolud, Bozena (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Graph theory provides some methods for finding clusters in networks. Clusters reflect the invisible grouping of the elements in a network. This paper presents a new method for finding clusters in networks. In this method, ...
    • Rate of penetration optimization using moving horizon estimation 

      Sui, Dan; Aadnøy, Bernt Sigve (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Increase of drilling safety and reduction of drilling operation costs, especially improvement of drilling efficiency, are two important considerations in the oil and gas industry. The rate of penetration (ROP, alternatively ...
