Structural uncertainty in assisted history matching
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-16)Uncertainty in the building of a 3D geo-model process is a result of our limited knowledge of the actual condition (Bratvold, R. B. and Begg, S. H., 2010). Many interpretations, analogues, estimations and simplifications ... -
Study of a model for spontaneous imbibition as a mechanism for oil recovery in naturally fractured reservoirs
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-06-10)One of the principal recovery mechanisms in Naturally Fractured Reservoirs (NFRs) is spontaneous imbibition. Understanding the parameters affecting spontaneous imbibition is the first step to achieve optimum oil recovery ... -
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 ... -
Study of CO2 properties and transportation for injection well into reservoir
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2007, Master thesis, 2007)One of the possible solutions to reduce CO2 emission in atmosphere is to inject for storage in reservoir. This action is known as the residual gas geological storage project. One of the important aspects in this project ... -
Study of Slug Flow in Undulated Horizontal Wells
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)Terrain induced slugging have become more common as the petroleum industry matures. Late-life fields, deepwater fields and marginal subsea tiebacks to existing facilities are prone to terrain induced slugging. Extended ... -

Subsea live well intervention using a riserless/open water coiled tubing system - System overview and operational weather limitations
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)This thesis gives an introduction both to a conventional CT operation setup and to an open water coiled tubing (OWCT) system and focuses on the main differences. An overview of proposed OWCT concepts is briefly presented. To ... -
Subsurface characterization of structural traps in the Outer Nunchia Foothills, Colombia
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2015;, Master thesis, 2015-06-15)The integration and interpretation of 2D and 3D seismic data, well information, geological maps and public information was used to identify the structural configuration of the outer Nunchia Foothills, to define the ... -
Subsurface investigation in the Gulf of Corinth (GoC), Greece
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-08-11)Corinth Rift is an excellent rift laboratory to study the rift processes occurring during the early and late stages of continental extension due to exposure of a series of half-graben structures at the southern margin. ... -
Surfactant flooding in carbonate rock
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2013;, Master thesis, 2013-06-17)Studies with surfactant flooding in sandstones have been done. These studies have reported that surfactants can alter the flow functions in mixed wet cores. Carbonate rocks are usually not water wet and have microfractures. ... -
Survey interpolation: A software for calculating correct wellpath between survey stations
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)In this Master’s thesis a Microsoft Excel Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) scheme is developed to automatically interpolate and calculate between survey stations. Interpolation techniques of the assumed mathematical ... -
Techno-economic evaluation of hard rock drilling technologies - Establishing a baseline
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-07)The industry is moving forward to drilling in harder and more abrasive formations. This challenging environment poses a challenge upon bit technologies and rate of penetration (ROP). The aim of this thesis is to gain a ... -
Tectono-stratigraphic development of the Cenozoic sedimentary succession of the shallow water Norwegian Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)The understanding of Cenozoic sedimentary succession in the Norwegian Sea (62°N- 69°N) has proven to be important in petroleum exploration endeavors in the Norwegian Sea. The purpose of this study was to improve the ... -
Tectonostratigraphic Evolution of the Barbados Accretionary Prism and the Tobago Basin: Implications for Petroleum Systems
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)The Barbados accretionary prism is the only commercially hydrocarbon producing prism in the world. However, the offshore region is still underexplored and only one well has been drilled. Due to this there is poor understanding ... -
Temperature effects in low salinity waterflooding
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)In the past years it has been observed that low salinity floods often lead to production of additional oil recovery. Several theories have been proposed as explanation for improved oil recovery, though the key mechanism ... -
