Improving history matching performance in a 3D field-scale case study by combining tracer and production data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Reservoir models are often subject to uncertainties, which, if not properly taken into account, may introduce biases to the subsequent reservoir management process. To improve reliability and reduce uncertainties, it is ... -
Well Control System Enhancement (Kick and Loss Detection)
(Master thesis, 2024)The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of downhole sensors in NOV’s EMS and ASM tools for early detection of loss and kick events in drilling operations. The research involves analyzing a well that initially ... -
Utilizing Wastewater Tunnels as Thermal Reservoirs for Heat Pumps in Smart Cities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-09)The performance of heat pump systems for heating and cooling heavily relies on the thermal conditions of their reservoirs. This study introduces a novel thermal reservoir, detailing a 2017 project where the Municipality ... -
Transient Modelling of Gas-in-Riser Unloading and Investigation of Supersonic Flow Conditions and Pressure Build-Up at Surface
(Master thesis, 2024)Gas-in-riser has always been one of the major risks in oil & gas drilling operations. A gas kick entering the riser can lead to riser unloading. Recently, there has been an increased awareness of the gas behaviour when it ... -
Building Performance Simulation of MyBox Energy Lab in Norway: Integrating the Human Dimension in Energy Use Analysis
(Conference object, 2024)The MyBox energy lab at the University of Stavanger presents an innovative integration of living and research spaces housed within six repurposed shipping containers, where energy consumption data has been logged hourly ... -

Well Completion Design, Integrity Evaluation and Stress Analysis on NCS
(Master thesis, 2024)The NORSOK D-010 defined well integrity as the application of technical, operational, and organizational solutions to minimize the risk level of uncontrolled fluid leaks from a well. During drilling and production phases, ... -
Analysis of Different Wellbore Failure Criteria Applied to Reservoir Depletion A Simulation Oriented Approach
(Master thesis, 2024)Wellbore instability has been and still is a challenging issue for the oil and gas industry. This thesis evaluates the impact of reservoir depletion on the wellbore stability window in a horizontal well drilled in the ... -
An Experimental Investigation of the Bullheading Process with Newtonian Fluid in the Lab
(Master thesis, 2024)Bullheading, a technique often employed in well control operations, involves the forced injection of fluids to displace unwanted gases or fluids downwards within a wellbore. The effectiveness of bullheading is highly ... -
Investigations of Transient Behaviour for non-Newtonian Fluid in a Vertical Well
(Master thesis, 2024)One of the most important factors in well-drilling operations is the accurate calculation of friction pressure loss. The accuracy of calculating this factor directly affects the management of bottom hole pressure and erosion ... -
Modified BOURGEYNE&YOUNG ROP Modelling, Applying Non-linear Multiple Regression
(Master thesis, 2024)Rate of Penetration (ROP) plays a crucial role in the effectiveness and affordability of drilling operations. By identifying important factors and their interactions, this thesis investigates the use of multiple regression ... -
Subsea Pumped Hydro Energy Storage : Exploring the need, possibilities, and limitations in the Energy Transition
(PhD Theses UiS;792, Doctoral thesis, 2024)In light of the global challenges posed by climate change and the required mitigation of its effects, the transition from conventional fossil fuels to renewable energy sources has accelerated, albeit with significant ... -
Transient Flow Modelling and Experimental Validation of Bullheading Process
(Master thesis, 2024)Bullheading is an essential technique used for well control in drilling operations but also for removing hydrocarbons from production wells and re-establishment of the fluid density as a well barrier. The technique is based ... -
Mitigation Strategies for Shallow Gas Hazards: A Comparative Analysis and Proposal for Enhanced Prevention Technique
(Master thesis, 2024)Shallow gas hazards present significant challenges in drilling operations and hazards to personnel safety and the environment. This study addressed shallow gas issues and compared different mitigation strategies that ... -
Evaluation of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) efficiency of smart water, ionic liquid blends using spontaneous imbibition tests.
(Master thesis, 2024)Smart water technology has shown promise in improving oil recovery in several oil fields globally through effective field implementations. Statoil’s smart water technique in Ekofisk and Heidrun fields, BP’s Low salinity ... -
GEOTHERMAL FRONTIER: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF KEY CHALLENGES IN GEOTHERMAL DRILLING AND CONVENTIONAL DRILLING PRACTISES: A CASE STUDY OF ICELAND DEEP DRILLING PROJECT (IDDP-2)
