Development and Characterization of a Pressure Transmitting Sag Prevention Gel Pill
Penkala, Larisa Sonja (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-06-08)Barite sag is a risky phenomenon to manage as particle settlement occurs in all types of drilling fluids containing weighting agents’ materials to achieve density. This leads to the phenomenon of sag which is known to ... -
Formulation Development of Drilling Fluids with DOE Mixture Model Design Technique.
Aguayo, Santiago (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-07-09)The aim of this thesis study is to investigate the effect of three components of a formulation of an oil-based drilling fluid, and how the variation of the percentage of each component affects the rheological behavior of ... -
Identification and analysis of Potential Retarders for Geopolymers Designed for Well cementing
Eid, Elsayed (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2020;, Master thesis, 2020-06-15)Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is the primary material, which is used in oil well cement, isolation formation and plug and abandonment. OPC has many advantages and some limitations reviewed by different authors. The ... -
Industrial feasibility study for the use of barite as a permanent well barrier element
Bø, Eskild Muri (Master thesis, 2021)As more and more wells reach the end of their production life, the focus on permanent plug and abandonment has increased in interest. Cost-efficient abandonment of wells with ceased production is an important economic goal ... -
Input Selection for Dimensionless Shear Rates in Herschel-Bulkley and Power-Law Models
Brasileiro, Raoni (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IEP/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Herschel-Bulkley and Power-Law models are mathematical expressions widely used to describe the pseudoplastic nature of drilling muds. Despite their popularity, these models carry an intrinsic limitation because the consistency ... -
Investigating the Necessity of Standardized In-Situ Testing Procedures for One-Part Granite-based Geopolymers: An Experimental Study of the Influence of Loading Rate
Landaas. Stine Lise (Master thesis, 2023)Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is the most popular choice for cementing material for petroleum well cementing. Since cement is used in the petroleum industry as an essential part of creating zonal isolation and ensuring ... -
Investigating the Necessity of Standardized In-Situ Testing Procedures for One-Part Granite-based Geopolymers: An Experimental Study of the Influence of Pore Pressure
