Improving Reliability of Under Reaming While Drilling Operations by Advancing Understanding in Drilling Dynamics
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)Under reaming while drilling operations have become a common practice in the oil and gas industry to address drilling challenges, e.g. reactive and swelling formation, equivalent circulation density (ECD), tight casing ... -
Inclusion of mass transfer terms in the AUSMV transient flow model
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06)Gas contamination of an oil-based drilling mud while performing drilling operations, having influx of formation gas into the borehole in the form of a gas kick; pose a potential hazard to the personnel, environment and the ... -
Inclusion of temperature in the AUSMV scheme with simulation examples from Underbalanced and Mud Cap Drilling
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06-15)Transient flow modelling is actively used to understand dynamic flow scenarios. In this thesis a modification and improvement has been performed for a transient flow model called AUSMV (Advective upstream splitting method). ... -
Increasing Temperature Range of Geothermal Production Casing by Mechanical Pre-tensioning
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)Thermally-induced forces in a fully cemented geothermal production casing can cause compressive failure during production of high temperature formation fluids. These failures lead to production downtime and costly repairs. ... -
Influence of different factors to the strength development of the cement slurry with aplite as a pozzolanic material.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)This study has 18 experiments which were performed in order to see the influence of different factors to she strength development of cement slurry containing Aplite. Aplite is a pozzolanic material consisting mainly from ... -
Influence of different modeling techniques on reservoir volume
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06-15)Facies modeling is one of the initial stages on the way to reservoir volume calculations. Typically, for each depositional environment a particular facies modeling method is used. The geology of the area of investigation ... -
