Investigating the PS seismic imaging of faults using seismic modelling and data from the Snøhvit field, Barents Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)PS seismic data from the Snøhvit field are compared with seismic modelling to understand the effect of azimuthal separation and incidence angle on the imaging of faults and associated horizon discontinuities. In addition, ... -
Investigation of a new application for cellulose nanocrystals: a study of the enhanced oil recovery potential by use of a green additive
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-02)Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) were investigated for use in a potential new application, enhanced oil recovery. Core flooding experiments were performed on outcrop sandstone cores using CNC particles dispersed in low salinity ... -
Joint History Matching of Multiple Types of Field Data in a 3D Field-Scale Case Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-08)This work presents an ensemble-based workflow to simultaneously assimilate multiple types of field data in a proper and consistent manner. The aim of using multiple field datasets is to improve the reliability of estimated ... -
Jurassic to Early Cretaceous basin configuration(s) in the Fingerdjupet Subbasin, SW Barents Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-06)The Fingerdjupet Subbasin in the southwestern Barents Sea sits in a key tectonic location between deep rifts in the west and more stable platform areas in the east. Its evolution is characterized by extensional reactivation ... -
A laboratory scale approach to wettability restoration in chalk core samples
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Wettability in chalk has been studied comprehensively to understand fluid flow mechanisms impacting coreflooding experiments. Wettability becomes paramount in understanding the parameters influencing chalk-fluid interactions. ... -
Load mitigation method for wind turbines during emergency shutdowns
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-02)Wind turbines experience countless shutdowns during their lifetimes. A shutdown is a transient process characterised by a pitch-to-feather manoeuvre of three blades. Such a pitch manoeuvre is often collective, open-loop, ... -
Machine learning based decline curve analysis for short-term oil production forecast
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-05)Traditional decline curve analyses (DCAs), both deterministic and probabilistic, use specific models to fit production data for production forecasting. Various decline curve models have been applied for unconventional ... -
Managing Uncertainty in Geological CO2 Storage Using Bayesian Evidential Learning
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-03)Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been increasingly looking like a promising strategy to reduce CO2 emissions and meet the Paris agreement’s climate target. To ensure that CCS is safe and successful, an efficient ... -
The Middle Jurassic to lowermost Cretaceous in the SW Barents Sea: Interplay between tectonics, coarse-grained sediment supply and organic matter preservation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Syn‐rift successions contain both prolific organic‐rich and coarse‐grained rocks, but these rocks are usually studied independently. Thus, the interplay among organic matter deposition, tectonics and sediment supply is not ... -
Mineral replacement in long-term flooded porous carbonate rocks
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09)This study reports mineralogical and physical property changes linked to geo-chemical alterations processes during three ultra-long-term tri-axial tests on outcrop-chalk from Liège (Belgium). The test core plugs were flooded ... -
Mineralogy and geochemistry of reservoir and non-reservoir chalk from the Norwegian continental shelf
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-05)A first and detailed study of the geochemistry and mineralogy characterizing the North Sea reservoir and non-reservoir chalk is provided in this work. The study is based on 185 cores from exploration and development wells ... -
The missing link of Rodinia break up in western South America: A petrographical, geochemical, and zircon Pb-Hf isotope study of the volcanosedimentary Chilla beds (Altiplano, Bolivia)
