An Integrated Study of the Oligocene Sequence Stratigraphic Framework in the Egersund Basin, Norwegian North Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-07-13)The Oligocene interval of the Egersund basin in the Norwegian North Sea is under-studied stratigraphic successions due to its minor significance for the oil and gas industry. The purpose of this study was to improve the ... -
Applying Geological Process Modeling to a turbidite system in the northern North Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)In recent years, several mathematical methods, especially those based on geostatistics, have been used in reservoir characterization. The reliability of the static models derived from these techniques depends on available ... -
Fault Activity Control on Upper Jurassic-Early Cretaceous Wedges in the Snorre Fault Block and its Surrounding Area
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-07)In this study, the question” how fault activity controlled the infill and geometry of the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous wedges in the Snorre Fault Block and surrounding area” is addressed. To achieve the goal, three-dimensional ... -
Joint Bayesian AVO and RMO inversion
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)Seismic amplitude variation with offset (AVO) has proved to be a useful technique in oil exploration. However, the sensitivity of AVO to residual move-out (RMO) is considered a severe limitation. Small misalignments between ... -
Lateral compositional variations in the Upper Jurassic source rock in the southwestern Barents Sea – an organic or inorganic disclosure
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Prominent high-value gamma-ray spikes in the maximum flooding surfaces of the Alge Member of the Hekkingen Formation display an uncommon stratigraphic and regional variation in the southwestern Barents Sea. The variation ... -
Modeling of turbidite systems in deep-water, thrust-related bivergent anticlines
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)In deep-water fold and thrust belts, thrust-related folds that switch vergence along strike can occur and are considered to have a major impact on reservoir distribution (Higgins et al., 2009). Syn-sedimentary processes ... -
Origin of anticline structure in the southern Hammerfest Basin and their impact in sedimentation and coarse-grained distribution
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)This thesis shows how extensional fault-related folding holds a fundamental control on basin physiography and syn-kinematic sediments. The study has used two- and three-dimensional seismic data in combination with a ... -
Principle Component Analysis as a Method For Error Covariance Matrix Inflation
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-07-13)An oil and gas discovery goes through a multiple-stage process to increase the understanding of the asset in hand. By increasing the understanding of the field, production plan gains extra credibility and the uncertainty ... -
Provenance on the Lysing-Lange megasequences on the Dønna Terrace: focus on stratigraphic variability and lateral sandbody connectivity
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-29)The Cenomanian to Coniacian-Turonian Lange-Lysing megasequences are located on the Dønna Terrace in the Norwegian Sea. Provenance study using traditional provenance methods such as petrography, whole-rock geochemistry, and ... -
Reservoir Characterization of the Snorre field: A pseudo wells based inversion approach
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-14)Complex reservoirs make hydrocarbon exploration challenging, and therefore improvement of methods for discovering and producing hydrocarbons is desired. Consequently, various seismic inversion algorithms have been developed ... -
Reservoir Modeling and Uncertainty Estimation: A Comparison Between Stochastic and Deterministic Inversion.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-29)This study compares the uncertainty estimation based on both deterministic and stochastic inversion with the Gauss Simulation technique applied to modelling the distribution of limestone facies in a sand-shale reservoir. ... -
Salt Controlled Fluvial Systems in the Norwegian Danish Basin, Central North Sea; The Impact on Triassic Petroleum Prospectivity
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)The Norwegian Danish Basin is situated in the intracratonic Central North Sea. During Triassic the basin filled with thick units of syn halokinetic arid to dryland fluvial successions of the Smith Bank Formation and the ... -
