A Comparative Analysis of Rheological Characteristics of Polymer Solutions Exposed to Temperature and Stress Over Time
(Master thesis, 2017)A series of experiments with thixotropic fluids composed of polymers and salt, with various temperatures and in circulation was carried out to examine how it influenced the current polymers decompositioning. The results ... -
Cuttings Transport in Inclined Sections
(Master thesis, 2017)Mud rheology is a key parameter in hole cleaning efficiency. Field data suggests that oil-based drilling fluids perform better compared to water based drilling fluids in the field, even with identical rheological properties, ... -
Model for Prediction of Cement Sheath Failure
(Master thesis, 2016)In casing design, the casing is required to withstand all loads it is exposed to during the well life. These loads are normally modeled in an industry leading software (ILS), which determines whether the casing can withstand ... -
Rock Properties in Synthetic- and Natural Clay Materials - An Experimental Study on Shale Barrier Materials
(Master thesis, 2018)Since the late 1960's, thousands of wells have been drilled on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS) - following the discovery of large hydrocarbon reserves on what eventually became Norwegian territory in the North Sea. ... -
System and method for estimation of drill cuttings concentration in a borehole
(Master thesis, 2015)Faster and cheaper wells are important to increase the recovery factor from producing fields and for making marginal fields profitable. Hole cleaning is a time consuming non-productive operation which increases well cost. ...
