Deepwater operations - running and cementing casing with small clearances
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)The petroleum demand is increasing and the line between success and failure is marginal. Thus, the drilling industry moves further into deeper waters, stretching the limits of engineering, economics and new technology to ... -
Depleted reservoir drilling : a study of the Ula field in the North Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2010;, Master thesis, 2010)Ula is an oil field operated by BP in the southern part of the Norwegian North Sea. As the field matures depleted intervals are drilled to access remaining reserves. Drilling in highly mature fields is challenging, both ... -
Depleted reservoir drilling: A North Sea HPHT case study
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012-06)Drilling infill wells in HPHT fields can represent a severe challenge. Narrow drilling windows are prevailing in HPHT reservoirs, and pressure depletion will decrease this window even more. It may be critical to drill ... -
Depositional setting and diagenesis as keys to reservoir quality: Lower Cretaceous in the southwestern Barents Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06-20)Porosity and permeability are controlled by the interaction of sediment provenance, depositional processes, and diagenesis. This study attempts to determine and predict which role the depositional environment has in enhancing ... -
Depth issues in the oil patch : a study of wellbore position uncertainty in the Ekofisk Field
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)The understanding of the subsurface geometrical position of the wellbore is crucial. The wellbore positioning data is relied upon by different disciplines or functional groups throughout the life of any given field. For ... -
Design for operation and maintenance of the Johan Sverdrup oil and gas field
(Student paper, others, 2014-04)The Johan Sverdrup field was discovered in 2010, formed by three blocks (PL 501, PL 265 and PL 502) on the North Sea, with an estimated of reserves between 1.8 billion to 2.8 billion Barrels of Oil, so assessing the ... -
Design of a hypothetical relief well for a shallow reservoir, possible challenges.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-05-09)Blowouts are one of the biggest threats during exploration and production of oil and gas. Losing control of a well can lead to severe consequences both economically, environmentally and put the working crew in danger. ... -
Designing Well Tests to Understand Performance of Induced Fractures
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)Presently, more and more water injection wells operate under induced fracturing condition. Induced fractures geometry and their orientation with respect to the injection well and nearby production wells are crucial factors ... -
Detailed reservoir study of the Lower Jurassic Tilje Formation around the Noatun and Linnorm discoveries, Halten Terrace, Norwegian Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2013;, Master thesis, 2013-11-14)Tilje Formation in Halten Terrace is significantly affected by the strongly heterolithic nature of its component of lithofacies and the complicated reservoir architecture, which largely controlled by eustatic process of ... -
