A new double porosity fractal model for well test analysis with transient interporosity transfer for petroleum and geothermal systems
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2013;, Master thesis, 2013-06-06)A new double porosity model for Naturally Fractured Reservoirs (NFRs) assuming fractal fracture network behavior and its solution is presented. Primary porosity is idealized as Euclidian matrix blocks (slabs or spheres) ... -
A new method for through tubing drilling
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06-15)As the world energy needs rises, the demand for new oil and gas reserves will increase along with the need for increased recovery from existing reserves. Through tubing drilling is one method of accomplishing increased ... -
A New P&A technology for setting the permanent barriers
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)This thesis presents an innovative way of plugging wells in the near future. The technology is based on various exothermic reactions lowered into the well at desired plugging depths. The ensuing reactions melt and engulf ... -
A new species of Pollenia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 from Jordan (Diptera: Calliphoridae: Polleniinae)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-01)A new species, Pollenia bartaki sp. nov., assigned to the Pollenia rudis species-group in Pollenia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830, is described on the basis of a single male specimen captured in Jordan. Its strongly curved surstylus ... -
A Novel Approach to Data Extraction on Hyperlinked Webpages
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-11)The World Wide Web has an enormous amount of useful data presented as HTML tables. These tables are often linked to other web pages, providing further detailed information to certain attribute values. Extracting schema of ... -
A Novel Approach to Qualifying Bismuth as a Barrier Material
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-12)The barrier material conventionally used for permanent P&A is cement. Since two barriers are a requirement to properly isolate potentially flowing formations, the reliability of the barriers could be enhanced by introducing ... -
A novel approach to surfactant flooding under mixed-wet conditions
(PhD thesis UiS;202, Doctoral thesis, 2013-09-13)In early days, a large number of research studies have been done based on the assumption that most of the sandstone reservoirs are strongly water-wet. Now it is widely accepted that most of sandstone reservoirs are at ... -
A parametric study of variable deck load for drilling vessels
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-16)The size of semi-submersible drilling rigs has tripled over the past 50 years, with corresponding increase in cost. In order to change the direction of this development, the size of the rigs has to be challenged. Utilizing ... -
A PESTEL analysis of which areas that are appropriate for offshore aquaculture
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-ISØP/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)The current conventional aquaculture industry represents a need for technology development as the locations suitable farming are limited. At the same time, there are other challenges such as salmon lice and pollution of ... -
A pore-to-core scale investigation of hysteresis for CO2 storage processes using a discrete-domain method
(Master thesis, 2022)In this thesis we have studied a discrete-domain method that is implemented to demonstrate the immiscible, two-phase displacements of two fluids, namely CO2 and water (or brine) in an originally water-saturated reservoir ... -
A Practical Analysis of the Gorums Framework: A Case Study on Replicated Services with Raft
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IDE/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06-15)Gorums is a novel RPC framework developed to make it easier to build fault tolerant distributed systems. We want to assess whether Gorums can simplify the implementation of a practical fault tolerant service that supports ... -
A Proposed Framework for Strengthening Mitigations of Offshore Jacket Structures and its Application
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)The majority of offshore platforms and jacket structures are currently passing their assigned lifetime both on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS), the Gulf of Mexico (GoM), the United Kingdom Continental Shelf (UKCS) ... -
A proteomic study for serum biomarkers for variations of two genotypes of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in infected lambs
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2008;, Master thesis, 2008-12)The work in this thesis was Collaboration between the Norwegian School of Veterinary Science (NSVS), IRIS (the International Research Institute of Stavanger), and the University of Stavanger. NSVS innoculated two genotypes ... -
A quantitative analysis on the management of interest rate risk during 2022, by selected companies on the Oslo Stock Exchange.
(Master thesis, 2023)The purpose of the dissertation has been to look at how the hikes in interest rates have affected the most traded companies on the Oslo Stock Exchange (OBX). This has been done in a purely quantitative manner through manual ... -
