Investigating the impact of solvent salinity on the viscometric functions of IOR polymers
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)One of the promising methods of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is injection of polymers dissolved in low salinity water. This leads to a dramatic increase in the sweep efficiency due to increased apparent viscosity. It is ... -
Investigating the implementation of the safety-diagnosability principle to support defence-in-depth in the nuclear industry: A Fukushima Daiichi accident case study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-05)‘Defence in depth’ (DID) is a fundamental safety principle applied in several industries, including nuclear. The key is to protect safety critical systems by employing multiple layers of protection, i.e. barriers. The ... -
Investigating the molecular epidemiology of Norwegian blood culture isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae using whole genome sequencing
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKBM/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Abstract Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a rapidly increasing threat to public health, and was in 2019 listed as one of top ten global health threats by the World Health Organization (WHO). The gram-negative ... -
Investigating the Necessity of Standardized In-Situ Testing Procedures for One-Part Granite-based Geopolymers: An Experimental Study of the Influence of Loading Rate
(Master thesis, 2023)Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is the most popular choice for cementing material for petroleum well cementing. Since cement is used in the petroleum industry as an essential part of creating zonal isolation and ensuring ... -
Investigating the Necessity of Standardized In-Situ Testing Procedures for One-Part Granite-based Geopolymers: An Experimental Study of the Influence of Pore Pressure
(Bachelor thesis, 2023)Portland cement has been the primary binder used in well construction due to its availability, affordability, and favorable characteristics. However, alternative options are being explored due to well integrity challenges ... -
Investigating the Necessity of Standardized In-Situ Testing Procedures for One-Part Granite-based Geopolymers: Examining the Impact of Temperature and Confining Pressure through Experimental Study
(Master thesis, 2023)Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is widely used in primary cementing and plug and abandonment operations due to its well-known properties, global availability, and affordability. However, it has limitations and durability ... -
Investigating the Polar Code’s function-based requirements for life-saving appliances and arrangements, and the performance of survival equipment in cold climate conditions – test of SOLAS approved desalting apparatus at low temperatures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)As the sea ice extent steadily decreases, the Arctic region is simultaneously experiencing extensive growth in commercial shipping activities, in areas which previously were considered inaccessible for most ships during ... -
Investigating the PS seismic imaging of faults using seismic modelling and data from the Snøhvit field, Barents Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)PS seismic data from the Snøhvit field are compared with seismic modelling to understand the effect of azimuthal separation and incidence angle on the imaging of faults and associated horizon discontinuities. In addition, ... -
Investigating Transport Energy Consumption Patterns on Sustainable Campuses
(Master thesis, 2023)This research investigates the energy consumption patterns of the students at the University of Stavanger, particularly that of the students residing in student housing facilities (SIS). An energy estimation methodology ... -
Investigation and analysis of anaerobic digestion plant at SNJ, IVAR.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2011;, Master thesis, 2011)Biodegradation of organic matter by anaerobic digestion is an old sludge treatment technique. The process offers many advantages with effective conversion of a broad range of organic wastes. The major application of anaerobic ... -
Investigation and study on reinforcement learning for optimizing well path
(Master thesis, 2021)Designing an optimal path has been considered one of the key challenges for drilling engineers. Even for a group of competent engineers, it takes many months to plan a well. A robust optimized path can influence total cost ... -
Investigation into development of safety levels on Norwegian installations in the north sea post-1990
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IØRP/2011;, Master thesis, 2011)There have been no major fatal accidents in the Norwegian sector after 1985, and those which occurred before that are not considered very relevant to the current investigation, because circumstances and policies differed ... -
