Experimental investigation of the potential of UCA and NMR for the detection of particle sedimentation in drilling fluids
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2013;, Master thesis, 2013-06-17)Both ultrasound and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) have previously been investigated for the potential of monitoring barite sag in drilling fluids. The Ultrasonic Cement Analyzer (UCA) registers the speed of ultrasound ... -
Experimental study of low salinity EOR effects from the Varg field
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)The extra oil recovery obtained when flooding a sandstone reservoir with low saline water is called low salinity (LowSal) effect. The term salinity refers to amount (and type) of salt that makes up the ionic composition ... -
Experimental study on Wood' theory within buckling
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010) -
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 ... -
Hole cleaning and hydraulics
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)Cuttings transport and efficient hole cleaning remains a vital challenge when planning and drilling vertical, deviated, high angle and extended reach wells. Optimization of cuttings transport depends on so many factors- ... -
Identification of local environmental, geographical or cultural factors that may influence offshore operations and maintenance processes.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IØRP/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-16)The oil and gas industry has evolved for centuries. The development of the society and the rapid grow of global economy require energy as a driven force for the engine of global economy plays a significant role in providing ... -
Importance of fault communication for predicted Snorre performance
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2009, Master thesis, 2009) -
Mathematical modeling of water-rock chemistry during water injection and its impact on the composition and porosity of chalk
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010) -
Numerical simulation of surfactant flooding in mixed wet reservoirs
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)Surfactants have been considered for enhanced oil recovery either by reduction of oil–water interfacial tension (IFT) or through wettability alteration. This study reveals the effect that reduced interfacial tension has ... -
Real time production monitoring with prediction and validation
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2009, Master thesis, 2009)This Master of Science studies Optimum Online’s real time estimated production at the Ekofisk Field. Information from offshore process sensors are used to validate the individual well estimates and to detect any deviation ... -
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. ... -
Seismic characterization of fault zones for use in fault facies reservoir models

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 ... -
The influence of pore pressure on rock-fluid interaction
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2009;, Master thesis, 2009)The experimental work in this thesis was performed at the chalk laboratory in University of Stavanger. The main objective is to determine the overall influence of pore pressure on the mechanical strength of chalk in the ... -
The use of sea water tracer as a tool for history matching of the Statfjord Fm simulation model
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)In this study, the Statfjord Fm reservoir simulation model was set up to track injected sea water. The sea water itself thereby forms a tracer in the simulation model. This sea water tracer was included with the intent ... -
Water and surfactant flooding at different wettability conditions
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2011;, Master thesis, 2011)In a surfactant flooding of oil reservoirs, surfactant products are added to the injected water to reduce the oil-water interfacial tension (IFT) and thereby mobilize capillary trapped oil. The theory in classic surfactant ... -
Wettability alteration in carbonates : the effect of water-soluble acids in crude oil and application of enzyme for wettability alteration
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)The objective of the project is defined in two phases. The first phase is to study the effect of oil composition and carboxylic acids in the crude oil on the wetting condition and wettability alteration process using ...
