Tapt sirkulasjonsmateriale - Påvirkning på viskøse egenskaper til vannbaserte borevæsker: Karakterisering av Herschel-Bulkley-væsker ved hjelp av dimensjonsløse skjærhastigheter.
(Bachelor thesis, 2023)Vannbaserte borevæsker brukes vanligvis i olje- og gassindustrien på grunn av deres gunstige miljøegenskaper og evne til å bore effektivt i myke og uavstivede formasjoner. Tapt sirkulasjonsmateriale (LCM) blir tilsatt for ... -
Techno-Economic Assessment of Hydrogen Production from Seawater
(Master thesis, 2021)Population growth and the expansion of industries have increased energy demand. In addition, the use of fossil fuel as an energy source produces greenhouse gases and increases air pollution. As a result, countries are ... -
Techno-economic assessment of low-carbon ammonia production
(Master thesis, 2021)Decarbonization of the ammonia production industry would require the use of innovative low-carbon production technologies. The use of electrolyser-based ammonia production instead of steam methane reforming may potentially ... -
TEM, SEM and optical microscopy analyses of Berea sandstone cores flooded with sodium silicate polymers for IOR purposes
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-07-13)Improved Oil Recovery (IOR) is a “hot topic” in the Oil and Gas industry. Sodium silicate (SS) is a polymer which can be injected into a reservoir as a fluid and due to polymerization it precipitates into a semi rigid gel ... -
The Application of Data Analytics and Machine Learning for Formation Classification and Bit Dull Grading Prediction
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)The oil and gas industry, especially its upstream part generates a massive amount of data. The proper data collection and processing are the vital elements of reducing the non-productive time and increasing the drilling ... -
The Effect of Adsorption of Crude Oil Polar Organic Components on Wettability and EOR Potential by Smart Water on Sandstone Cores
(Master thesis, 2021)Reservoir wettability is widely acknowledged as one of the most influential parameters in oil recovery processes. The complexity of the underlying crude oil brine rock (CoBR) interactions at the interface boundaries acting ... -
The Effect of Injection Rate and Oil Viscosity on Oil Recovery by Waterflooding on Sandstone Cores
(Master thesis, 2021)With every passing day, the rise for developing and optimizing oil recovery methods and techniques grows, since the global demand for energy is increasing exponentially. Water flooding is still regarded as the most widely ... -
