Drill string oscillations during connections when drilling from a semi-submersible platform
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)As the operational window is getting narrower, pressure control is becoming more important. Drilling from a semi-submersible platform can in this context offer new challenges as the top of the drill string will follow the ... -
Models for water flooding, imbibition and coupled fracture-matrix flow in a fractured reservoir
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2013;, Master thesis, 2013-06-17)The study of reservoir performance during waterflooding is important to reservoir engineers. Numerous analytical, semi-analytical and numerical flow models with different assumptions have been submitted over the years, ... -
Numerical Simulation and Experimental Study of Reelwell’s Heavy over Light Solution in Vertical Well Sections
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06)Reelwell has developed the Reelwell Drilling Method (RDM), including the Heavy Over Light (HOL) solution. The HOL solution allows drilling with simultaneously use of two different drilling fluids, i.e. a near static ... -
Optimization of jars
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-07-01)Stuck pipe is a major problem for the oil industry, and getting bigger as more complex horizontal and deviated wells are drilled. What causes this problem and the ways to avoid it are presented. The main tool to unstuck ...
