Experimental Investigation of the Role of Relative Permeability and Wettability in Geological CO 2 Storage in Saline Aquifer
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2012:310, Doctoral thesis, 2012)The first task for carbon capture and storage is to find suitable locations to store CO2 safely and permanently. Saline aquifers are considered to be one of the best options for CO2 storage. This study can be divided into ... -
Experimental Investigationand Numerical Simulation ofThermal Recovery ProcessesApplicable in AthabascaBitumen Reservoirs
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2013:274, Doctoral thesis, 2013)Due to reduction of high quality oil resources and consequently increase of oil price around the world, new sources of energy should be found to relief the high demand of energy. Hence, countries like Venezuela, United ... -
Experimental Investigations of the Thermomechanical Properties of Norwegian Quick Clay
(Master thesis, 2021)Denne masteroppgaven presenterer resultatene av eksperimentelle undersøkelser for å studere effekten av økt temperatur på norsk kvikkleire. Økt temperatur kan for eksempel være forårsaket av drift av et høytemperatur termisk ... -
Experimental Measurements of the Capillary Entry Pressure of Outcrop and Field Shale
(Master thesis, 2015)The oil industry often faces borehole stability issues when drilling through shale, especially shale that is water-wet. It is often observed that drilling with oil-based mud yields the best results due to the capillary ... -
Experimental quantification of the performance of a horizontal multi-pipe bulk separator of water and oil with crude spiking
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Subsea water separation with pipe separators is crucial for ensuring efficient and environmentally responsible extraction of oil and gas from the seabed. In this study, in a process called as “crude oil spiking,” two ... -
Experimental Studies of Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2012:272, Doctoral thesis, 2012)The main purpose of this work was to understand the driving mechanisms by which the bacterium Rhodococcus sp. 094 increases oil recovery. The reason for only using this species was to thorougly investigate different aspects ... -
Experimental Studies of Stress Dependence,Static vs Dynamic behaviour and Mechanical Anisotropies of Shale
(Chapter, 2014)Laboratory data from controlled rock mechanical tests with various shales have been used to understand and quantify stress effects on wave velocities of relevance for 4D seismics, and to quantify the difference between ... -
Experimental Studies of the Acoustic Signal generated by Marine Seismic Sources
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:80, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Marine seismic acquisition is the most commonly used geophysical technique to image the subsurface for different purposes, e.g. exploration of reservoirs or investigation of subduction zones as areas where earthquakes are ... -
Experimental Studies on North Sea Rock Evaluating the Low Salinity Effect on Enhanced Oil Recovery and Permeability Reductions
(Master thesis, 2011)In this project the concept of low salinity water flooding is experimentally tested and discussed. Both the effect on enhanced oil recovery and the permeability reductions issues which can arise during low salinity flooding ... -
Experimental study and stress analysis of rock bolt anchorage performance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)A new method was developed to apply pull-and-shear loads to the bolt specimen in order to evaluate the anchorage performance of the rebar bolt and the D-Bolt. In the tests, five displacing angles (0°, 20°, 40°, 60°, and ... -
Experimental Study for Wear Characteristics and Wear Prediction of Corrosion Resistant Alloy Material Tubulars
(Master thesis, 2022)Precise casing wear estimation is important to ensure appropriate well integrity and safer production of hydrocarbons. The amount of casing wear depends not only on operational parameters but also on the casing material. ... -
