A Comparative Simulation Study of Chemical EOR Methods Applied to the Norne E-Segment Using Eclipse 100
Tveit, Martin (Master thesis, 2014)Secondary recovery techniques such as waterflooding are often used to maintain pressure during depletion. Still, unfavorable mobility ratios, reservoir heterogeneity and strong capillary forces may cause a waterflood alone ... -
An evaluation of the combination of EOR technologies based on applied reservoir simulation
Herud, Marte (Master thesis, 2012)This master thesis investigates a combination of two different chemicalEOR methods: 1) polymer flooding and 2) deep profile control.The combination of these EOR methods are simulated by the useof ECLIPSE100 on a simplified ... -
An open-source approach to Integrated Operations
Kristoffersen, Brage Strand (Master thesis, 2017)This thesis is based on exploring the topic of Integrated Operations (IO) and software development in the oil and gas industry. The philosophy of IO and how it impacted the oil and gas industry in the last decade is ... -
ANALYSIS OF THE DRIVE MECHANISMS OF THE SONGO SONGO GAS FIELD
Tibiika, Julieth Anthony (Master thesis, 2014)This report focuses on establishing the drive mechanisms of the Songo Songo gas field inTanzania. The thesis is based on determining the presence or absence of aquifer, determining type of aquifer, size of aquifer, aquifer ... -
Application of WAG and SWAG injection Techniques in Norne E-Segment
Nangacovié, Helena Lucinda Morais (Master thesis, 2012)AbstractInside of the Norne E-segment remains a considerable amount of residual oil even after applying the primary and secondary oil recovery methods (water injection). Recently, several methods have been studied based ... -
Applying Chemical EOR on the Norne Field C-Segment
Abrahamsen, Anders (Master thesis, 2012)The world energy demand will grow and oil will continue to be a major part of the energy consumption. Enhanced Oil Recovery will play a key role in meeting the oil demand by increasing the low oil recovery factors in the ... -
Assessing Weighting Coefficients in Seismic History Matching of the Norne Field
Nygaard, Simen (Master thesis, 2013)4D seismic data has become an important tool for oil and gas field operators. Reservoir characterization, evaluation and monitoring are all improved by including seismic data in the history matching routine.History matching ... -
Assessment of the production of Wisting green field through an Integrated Asset Model
Boulahdaj, Amal (Master thesis, 2017)Wisting is a newly discovered oil field located in the northern part of the Barents Sea, Norway. This green field is expected to produce its first oil by 2024. The field development concept selected by the operator of the ... -
CO2 EOR Potential in the Brent Group at the Statfjord Field
Bjørnå, Petter Agersborg (Master thesis, 2017)CO2 flooding is an enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technique that can be used to improve displace- ment efficiency and volumetric sweep efficiency. This is due to its favorable interactions with oil, which can be beneficial ... -
Comparison of Gas Reservoir Performance from Simulation and General Material Balance
Mkinga, Oras Joseph (Master thesis, 2014)The study of comparing gas reservoir performance using two different methods, namely numerical simulation and general material balance was conducted. The Songo Songo dry gas field in Tanzania was used for this study. The ... -
Comparison of Improved Oil Recovery Processes on the Norne Field, C-Segment
Mbwilo, Sarah Exaud (Master thesis, 2015)The main task is to carry out a comparative simulation study for the polymer flooding, low saline water flooding and well location optimization; and then comparing their performance in terms of net present value. -
Cyclic Water Injection: A Simulation Study
Langdalen, Henrik (Master thesis, 2014)Cyclic waterflooding is a recovery method that increases the cumulative oil production in stratified, heterogeneous reservoirs. The process is based on alternated injection rates and alternating waterflood patterns within ... -
Development of constraint handling techniques for well placement optimization in Petroleum Field Development - Problem formulation and implementation for FieldOpt software including well index calculation for deviated wells
Magnusson, Hilmar (Master thesis, 2016)Well placement optimization is an important part of Petroleum Field Development. However, in order to improve the optimization procedures, it can be important to incorporate considerations like knowledge about the geology ... -

Drainage Strategy of Gamma Main Statfjord at the Oseberg Main Field
Birkeland, Marie (Master thesis, 2016)One of the most important jobs of a reservoir engineer is to predict the future production and behaviour of a reservoir. In order to be able to do this job the reservoir engineer is dependent on having a sufficient reservoir ... -
Early History Matching of the Ivar Aasen Field
Hølland, Øystein (Master thesis, 2017)Dynamic reservoir simulation models are used to better understand the reservoir and predict future reservoir performance. Once a field starts to produce, a continuous flow of dynamic data becomes available in terms of ... -
Effects of Fracture Capillary Pressure and non-straight Relative Permeability Lines
