(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 ... -
Characterization of Nannofacies in Upper Cretaceous Chalks used in IOR Research
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-07)The aim of this thesis is to contribute to enhanced oil recovery (EOR) research by characterizing nannofacies in chalk samples used in increased oil recovery (IOR) flooding experiments with a MgCl2 brine at reservoir ... -
Comparison of facies models based on stochastic versus deterministic AVO inversion
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2020;, Master thesis, 2020)This thesis compares facies models based on deterministic AVO inversion – which is a standard approach in the industry, and stochastic AVO inversion – which is a newer, less popular approach, but according to literature, ... -
Data Assimilation Methods in Seismic Inversion
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06)Full-waverform inversion (FWI) is a powerful tool for getting high resolution images from seismic data to understand formations and the reservoir characteristics. But the inversion problems usually do not have unique ... -
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 ... -
