• Automatic evaluation and adjustment of drilling fluid properties and compositions during MPD operations and its cost-benefit analysis 

      Frøyland, Nina (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IØRP/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-13)
      In this thesis a differential pressure system "Dual DP", originated at the University of Stavanger, is employed to test differential pressure of a fluid flow. From this, several properties of the fluid can be calculated ...
    • Costs of not Following Common Standards; A Case Study of Cost Implications of Using Customer Specific Requirements Instead of Industry Standards 

      Kjerkreit, Håkon (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IØRP/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)
      In recent years, costs of subsea production systems on the Norwegian Continental Shelf has escalated. In combination with a plunging oil price, this has led to reduced margins for the companies. In order to survive the ...
    • Efficiency of ICV/ICD systems 

      Gimre, Jeanette (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IØRP/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)
      Well completions today are very different from the traditional well completions. Reservoir complexity has increased, making horizontal wells the optimal solution in many reservoir cases, and an increase in the use of ...
    • Fast borestreng 

      Deeb, Yousef (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IØRP/2013;, Master thesis, 2013)
      Fast borestreng er når en ikke kan rotere den, eller bevege strengen opp og ned. Flere mekanismer kan forårsake dette, blant annet formasjonsrelaterte problemer som for eksempel: ukonsoliderte formasjoner, mobile formasjoner, ...
    • Killing a highrate blowout well through a relief well 

      Haugen, Ingrid (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2011;, Master thesis, 2011)
      A kick can be defined as an unintended influx of formation fluids into a borehole. If the kick can’t be controlled it will evolve into a blowout. In this case a relief well would have to be drilled to stop the influx. To ...
    • Shoetrack drillout 

      Enge, Anders (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IØRP/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-13)
      The petroleum industry constantly works to optimize operational aspects within drilling. The cost to drill a well is a parameter all companies want to minimize. To do this new technology and new methods are used to optimize ...
    • Studying and comparing 3D technology initiatives in the construction and petroleum industries 

      Einarsen, Simen; Jørgensen, Kevin (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-ISØP/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)
      The rapid advancements of new technologies paired with an increasing focus on both cutting costs and reducing carbon footprints is driving the world's industries towards a digital transformation. Despite technologically ...
