Calculation of forces acting on a rotary steerable liner drilling system
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2009;, Master thesis, 2009)Torque and drag calculations performed on a new liner drilling design indicate that a very high grade drillpipe, up to S-135, is required in order to satisfy the requirements which both axial and torsional loading place ... -
Nonlinear analysis of a space frame subjected to loading from dropped objects
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2009, Master thesis, 2009)There is always a risk of an object being dropped during offshore lifting operations. Any underlying structure or equipment might be severely damaged, and in worst case, lives might be lost. Consequently, structures which ... -
Grafisk presentasjon av GPenSim-simulering
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IDE/2009, Master thesis, 2009)GPenSim er et verktøy for modellering og simulering av diskret hendelsesystemer (DES). GPenSim er integrert i Matlab-plattformen, og har dermed tilgang til innebygde Matlabfunksjoner som plot etc. I GPenSim blir Petri ... -
Use risk-based method to develop a foundation for quantitatively assessing the contribution of maintenance activities in offshore petroleum oil and gas industry
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IKM/2009, Master thesis, 2009)As the world market becomes more benefit-oriented, increasingly companies and organizations are becoming aware of the maintenance’s contribution to value generation, as well as its contribution to risk reduction. Maintenance ... -
Through tubing rotary managed pressure drilling
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2009;, Master thesis, 2009)Managed pressure drilling (MPD) has been known to the industry for a few years. MPD with the ability of coping with risky down-hole pressure situations has gained a great deal of attention. Compared to MPD, the drilling ... -
Design of optimal power cogeneration for north-east Sri Lanka based on stand-alone renewable energy systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)This paper presents an optimal model to satisfy electricity needs of North-east Sri Lanka (NE-SL). With the absence of indigenous fossil fuel and large-scale hydrologic resources, NE-SL depends on the import of fossil ... -
