• Cuttings Transport With Oil- and Water-Based Drilling Fluids 

      Ytrehus, Jan David; Lund, Bjørnar; Taghipour, Ali; Saasen, Arild (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-01)
      Deviated well sections are common in most modern offshore well construction designs. In the North Sea region, which is a good example of mature areas, practically all producer or injector wells have highly deviated well ...
    • Data-driven sensitivity analysis of complex machine learning models: A case study of directional drilling 

      Tunkiel, Andrzej Tadeusz; Sui, Dan; Wiktorski, Tomasz (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-12)
      Classical sensitivity analysis of machine learning regression models is a topic sparse in literature. Most of data-driven models are complex black boxes with limited potential of extracting mathematical understanding of ...
    • A solution for funding the development of technology in oilwell drilling 

      Amorim Jr., Dalmo S.; Santos, Otto L. A.; Azevedo, Ricardo C.; Chieregati, Ana Carolina; Hølland, Kari (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-11)
      This article proposes a novel methodology to solve an existing gap in benchmark definition by the adoption of statistically defined benchmarks as references to test products or technical procedures. In a win–win partnership, ...
    • Validation study of water weakening research from outcrop chalks performed on Eldfisk reservoir cores 

      Kallesten, Emanuela Iedidia; Cherif, Yosra; Madland, Merete Vadla; Korsnes, Reidar Inge; Omdal, Edvard; Andersen, Pål Østebø; Zimmermann, Udo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-03)
      Seawater injection for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) purposes can increase the hydrocarbon recovery factor in carbonate reservoirs but are also responsible for weakening their mechanical strength. This study investigates the ...
