• A simple model for predicting the internal and external filtration during produced water re-injection using field data from Grane well G-32. 

      Dahle, Svein Kåre Malo (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-05-14)
      Produced water re-injection is a method for managing the produced water in an environmentally friendly way by injecting produced water into a porous formation. This is also a method of maintaining the reservoir pressure. ...
    • Automatic Management of Rate of Penetration in Heterogeneous Formation Rocks 

      Akisanmi, Olaleke Anthony (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)
      Rate of penetration (ROP) is dependent on several factors and it is essential to properly manage and control this in order to save cost of drilling operations. Drillbotics test skid is an automated machine that is expected ...
    • Cementing Geothermal Steam Wells 

      Haavik, Inger Lill (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06)
      Cementing wells with severe temperatures and/or pressures has become a common matter over the years. Running casing and designing the cement job is very difficult with temperatures above 150°C (300°F) which is a common ...
    • Challenges related to magnetics and navigation within directional drilling 

      Kular, Sandeep Singh (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-15)
      Magnetic distortion of magnetometer readings affects the accuracy and efficiency of the wellbore positioning operations, which in turn degrades the industrial viability of the magnetic measurements while drilling survey ...
    • Effect of Nano Additives on Friction in a Bentonite Water Based System 

      Forthun, Shirin Charlotte (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2016;, Master thesis, 2016-06-13)
      This thesis will present relevant literature study and theory for the experimental and simulation parts. Several water based drilling fluids containing high and low concentrations of TiN, MoS2 and Graphene in nano-size ...
    • Time Estimation of Future Plug and Abandonment Operation at Brage Field 

      Fjelde, Olav (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06-15)
      Production of oil on the Norwegian continental shelf started in the early 70’s. Many of these fields are now reaching the end of their production time. The industry is now awaiting a “plug wave” in the not too distant ...
