Application of 3-D Analytical Model for Wellbore Friction Calculation in Actual wells
(Master thesis, 2012)With the increasing number of drilled ultra-extended reach wells and complex geometry wells, the drilling limitation caused by excessive torque and drag forces must be further investigated. The wellbore friction being a ... -
Application of WAG and SWAG injection Techniques in Norne E-Segment
(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 ... -
Dual gradient drilling simulations
(Master thesis, 2012)The system studied in this thesis is called the Low Rise Return system and uses a partly filled marine drilling riser with a variable mud level which is used control the bottom holes pressure.Initially main components of ... -
ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY FOR NORNE FIELD (STATOIL) C-SEGMENT USING ALKALINE-SURFACTANT-POLYMER FLOODING
(Master thesis, 2012)A great percentage of oil is observed to be left in the reservoir after the traditional primary and secondary recovery methods. This oil is described as immobile oil. Alkaline-Surfactants are chemicals used to reduce the ... -
Evaluation of Alkaline, Surfactant and Polymer Flooding for Enhanced Oil Recovery in the Norne E-segment Based on Applied Reservoir Simulation
(Master thesis, 2012)The world needs energy and over the short and medium term it is clear that much of our global energy consumption will come from fossil sources such as oil, gas and coal. With the current growing demand for oil led by ... -
EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF DRILLING MUD RHEOLOGY AND ITS EFFECT ON CUTTINGS TRANSPORT
(Master thesis, 2012)To determine the carrying capacity of the drilling fluid, also determine the settling velocities of the drilling cuttlings. To produce the Reynold's number experimentally. -
History Matching, Forecasting & Production Optimization on Norne E-Segment
(Master thesis, 2012)I performed manual History Matching on the E-segment of the Norne field based on available production & pressure data. I used the obtained final match for future prediction. I performed Production Optimization by experimenting ... -
History Matching: Effekten av tilgjengelig informasjon
(Master thesis, 2012)En god reservoarmodell, som både representerer de statiske parameterne og strømningsegenskaper, er avgjørende for å optimalisere produksjonen fra hvilket som helst reservoar. Mye tid og krefter blir brukt til å beskrive ... -
Influence of Casing Shoe Depth on Sustained Casing Pressure
(Master thesis, 2012)In 2006 the Petroleum Safety Authority Norway (PSA) performed a well integrity survey. The survey indicated that about 20 % of wells on the Norwegian Continental shelf (NCS) may suffer from well integrity issues. Most of ... -
IPR Modeling for Coning Wells
(Master thesis, 2012)In this study, based on the work of Vogel, we generated the Inflow Performance Relationship (IPR) curves and its dimensionless form at any stage of depletion using black-oil simulator results. The IPR was generated for ... -
Master s Thesis Effect of Brine Concentration on Flow Properties in Two Types of Carbonate Rocks Ekofisk Chalk and Iranian Limestone : Study of Chemical Effect of Brine Composition on Flow Properties on Carbonate Rocks
(Master thesis, 2012)SummaryThe displacement of oil from reservoir rock pore spaces is a function of many interacting variables, amongst which the reservoir wetting state has been shown to be one of the important affected by the rock lithology, ... -
Model for Kick Tolerance
(Master thesis, 2012)Kick Tolerance is an important factor in the industry, that allows drilling engineers to establish several parameters in the development phase of a well, such as casing depths, open hole lengths, etc. It can also be ... -
Numerical Simulation of Gas Coning of a Single Well Radial in a Naturally Fractured Reservoir
(Master thesis, 2012)Gas coning is the tendency of the gas to drive oil downward in an inverse cone due to the downward movement of gas into the perforations of a producing well thereby reducing oil production and the overall recovery efficiency ... -
Numerical Simulation of Low Salinity Water Flooding Assisted with Chemical Flooding for Enhanced Oil Recovery
(Master thesis, 2012)World proved oil reserve gradually decreases due to the increase production but decrease new field discovery. The focus on enhance oil recovery from the existing fields has become more interesting in the recent years. Since ... -
Pressure Transient Analysis Using Generated Well Test Data from Simulation of Selected Wells in Norne Field
(Master thesis, 2012)Several types of transient well testing in Norne field are presented in this thesis. One production well from each segment in Norne field was participated in different type of test. The well test data of all cases were ... -
Producing Gas-Oil Ratio Performance of Conventional and Unconventional Reservoirs
