Analytical solutions for forced and spontaneous imbibition accounting for viscous coupling
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Theoretical and experimental work has shown that fluid mobilities can depend on flow configuration, and are typically lower when fluids flow in opposite directions as compared to when they flow in the same direction. Such ... -
Decision-Driven Data Analytics for Well Placement Optimization in Field Development Scenario - Powered by Machine Learning
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)Application of Data Analytics and Machine Learning (ML) in petroleum reservoir management have received a lot of attention in recent years, mainly due to the availability of sheer computational resources and recorded big ... -
Effect of Wettability on Waterflooding and Relative Permeability at Slightly Water-Wet Conditions
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-14)The wettability of a porous system is of high importance when waterflood behavior and relative permeability are investigated, because both will be strongly affected. Adsorption of polar organic components (POC) are responsible ... -
Effect of Wettability on Waterflooding and Relative Rermeability at Medium Water-Wet Conditions.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)This project contributes with experimental measurement that could increase our understanding on how relative permeability is affected by wettability during an oil recovery process. Wettability has significant attention ... -
Experimental Investigation of Material Functions of EOR Polymer Solutions
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)The material functions of multiple EOR polymers were measured and analyzed. Investigating the start-up and relaxation behaviour of multiple polymeric solutions were the main focus of this thesis work. The experimented data ... -
Hybridization of gradient-based and gradient-free optimization techniques for simultaneous optimization of number of wells, their location and drilling time in a 2-dimensional reservoir
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06)Optimization has always been a challenging scope in any field of science, and reservoir management is no exception. By the advent of computational power, the use of mathematical algorithms in conjunction with reservoir ... -
MICP-Based Rock Typing of Complex, Multi-Modal Formations in Edvard Grieg Field
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)Rock/pore typing is a process of classifying reservoir rocks into units with similar petrophysical properties. When properly classified, each unit possesses a unique porosity-permeability relationship. This leads to improved ... -
Production of Smart Water by Acid Flooding in Chalk Cores: Oil Recovery Effects at Intermediate Temperature
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-14)Considering that most carbonates are of low water wetness, it is of great interest to inject a brine that can alter the wettability to enhance oil production. Smart Water injection has therefore become the most meaningful ... -
Production of Smart Water by Acid Flooding in Chalk: Temperature Limitation at Slightly Water-Wet Conditions
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-14)Seawater has proven to be an excellent injection fluid in chalk due to its ability to alter the wettability towards more water-wet conditions at high temperatures. This chemically induced wettability alteration improves ... -
Reactive Flow Simulation
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)Sea water-injection in carbonate formations leads to reactive processes that are linked to affecting oil recovery via wettability alteration and chemical compaction. The concentrations of divalent ions, such as Ca2+, Mg2+, ... -
Reservoir Simulation of Chemical Inflow Tracers in Horizontal Wells
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-14)Conventional production logging tools can be challenging to deploy and interpret in long horizontal wells. Inflow tracer technology can address these challenges, by allowing continuous monitoring of the horizontal section. ... -
Simulation of Water Management Processes
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)Conformance control practices are commonly used to tackle issues related with injected fluids bypassing potentially oil-bearing formations, due to the presence of conductive fractures. To improve the prospect of such a ... -
Smart Water EOR potential in Brazilian oilfields
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)The fact that the petroleum industry still invest a lot of money on different oil recovery techniques indicates that there is an increasing demand for oil that needs to be met. Water flooding is a common secondary oil ... -
