Dynamics of multiphase dispersed systems in rotating annulus
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)An investigation of multiphase dispersed system dynamics in rotating annulus is described. The investigation was based on measuring rheological constant (viscosity) of two-phase flowing system. The flow was obtained between ... -
Fracture propagation modeling
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)In oil and gas production, hydraulic fracturing is often performed to increase the productivity of hydrocarbon reservoirs. During drilling operation, when the differential well pressure exceeds the strength of the ... -
En studie av kunnskapsdeling og erfaringsoverføring i boreoperasjon og brønnplanlegging

Study of CO2 effect on asphaltene precipitation and compositional simulation of asphaltenic oil reservoir
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)A model which is based on Flory-Huggins polymer-solution theory and Hildebrand solubility concept has been developed which shows an excellent match with experimental data. The fine-tuned model is then possible to predict ... -
Effect of core cleaning solvents on wettability restoration and oil recovery by spontaneous imbibition in surface reactive, low permeable limestone reservoir cores
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)The success of oil recovery, by water flooding, in naturally fractured, low permeable limestone reservoirs strictly depends on imbibition of injected water into the reservoir matrix block. Prerequisite of imbibition process ... -
Evidence for tectonic control deposition of the Brent Group, northern North Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)Detailed examination of well-constrained three-dimensional seismic data introduces the role of tectonics in controlling the nature of syn-rift sequences on the hanging wall of faulted blocks, typical Late Jurassic structural ... -
Effect of water flow in gravel pack with regards to heavy oil production
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)The objective of the thesis is to see how the effect of water is displacing the oil through gravel pack. Experimental solutions have been developed for displacement performance of two vertical displacements and one horizontal. ... -
Rheological characterization of borate crosslinked fluids using oscillatory measurements
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)Fracturing fluid has a very important role in hydraulic fracturing treatment. Viscosity of hydraulic fracturing fluid affects transporting, suspending, and deposition of proppant, as well as flow back after treatment. ... -
Drilling optimization : drill bit performance optimization using DROPS simulator ( Ekofisk/Eldfisk Field)
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)Two drilled Wells: Well A and Well B were analysed under the following input data; drilling parameter, survey data, lithology data and bit information using DROPS simulator to showcase the bit performance optimization ... -
Wettability alteration in carbonates: the effect of water-soluble carboxylic acids in crude oil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed; Doctoral thesis, 2010)Acidic components in crude oil influence the wetting condition through their effect on electrostatic interactions with the mineral surfaces. In this paper, we have extracted water-soluble acids from a crude oil with a high ... -
