Comparing methods for system identification on the quadruple tank
(Master thesis, 2015-10-30)System Identification in control engineering has been the field of interest for the research and development to find the optimal model of dynamic system. Both MIMO and SISO systems can be modeled using different system ... -
Near well simulation of oil production from conventional heterogeneous oil
(Master thesis, 2015-10-30)Drilling horizontal wells has been provided to be useful for producing oil and gas. This meant increased production by maximizing the reservoir contact. However, due to heel-toe effect an uneven influx of reservoir fluid ... -
CO2 for enhanced oil recovery and secure storage of CO2 in reservoirs
(Master thesis, 2015-10-30)CO2-EOR(Enhanced Oil Recovery) is an effective and useful technology that can not only increase the oil production to meet the increasing need for energy around the world, but also mitigate the negtive influence of global ... -
Near well simulation and modelling of oil production from heavy oil reservoirs
(Master thesis, 2015-10-30)Heavy oil reservoirs cover up two third of the world's hydrocarbon reservoirs. Even though they are a vast energy reserve, heavy oil recovery is not considered economical due to its high viscous property. Generally horizontal ... -
Near well simulation of heavy oil reservoir with water drive
(Master thesis, 2015-10-30)The Depletion of oil production and the low recovery rate are major challenges faced in oil production at Norwegian continental self. Several studies have shown that considerable amount of oil still remains after the well ... -
Stochastic flood control using MPC of Kragerø waterways
(Master thesis, 2015-11-06) -
Deterministic flood control using MPC on the Kragerø waterways
(Master thesis, 2015-11-06)The Kragerø Waterways consist of 5 power plants downstream after Lake Toke, Dalsfos is the first of these power plants. As a deterministic flood control of Lake Toke and Dalsfos there has been designed a MPC. The MPC uses ... -
Simulating open channel flow for drill mud mass flow measurement, part II
(Master thesis, 2015-11-06)Advancement in oil drilling technology, particularly managed pressure drilling requires better knowledge of return drill mud flow. Since the mud outflow is in an open channel, it is proposed to use flume with constriction ... -
Full-scale NOx reduction experiments at Norcem Brevik
(Master thesis, 2015-11-06)The NOx reduction system installed at Norcem Brevik is based on the SNCR technology. It was installed in 2012 and substantial reduction of NOx has been achieved. However, it has never been performed experiments or optimizations ... -
Evaluation and comparison of MPC algorithms applied to a real air heater
(Master thesis, 2015-11-12)With a remarkable increase in demand for safe, efficient and stable control operation, process control for process plants has become more important. Although Conventional PID controllers have been used in the process ... -
Viscoelastic entrance flow of Hydrolized Polyacrylamide (HPAAM)
(Master thesis, 2015-11-12)The use of polymers in polymer/water flooding enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is a technique used since just after World War 2, and with several full scale fields in operation. Increasing oil prices and more challenging ... -
Evaluation and comparison of MPC algorithms applied to simulated processes
(Master thesis, 2015-11-13)Model predictive controller is one of the most advanced control approaches which because of its good features like: ability to explicitly include constraints in its formulation, multivariable control, ability to look in ... -
Evaluation and comparison of Kalman filter algorithms
(Master thesis, 2015-11-13)In practical applications, biogas flow sensors are used to measure the output methane gas from the reactor. But none of the states are measured. State estimation methods can be used to solve this problem. In this thesis ... -
Tuning of viscosity and density of non-Newtonian fluids through mixing process using multimodal sensors, sensor fusion and models
(Master thesis, 2016)The main work of this thesis was to develop some empirical models that could be used to estimate the viscosity in drilling operations. The reason for this is due to the fact that oil companies spends a lot of money to make ... -
Model Free Optimal and Predictive Control of the K-Spice Process Simulator
(Master thesis, 2016)Impact of the slugging can significantly decrease oil production and have damage consequences for equipment. Nowadays, Model free optimal and predictive control is actual topic of discussion and could be not-exhaustive ... -
CO₂ dehydration after CO₂ capture
(Master thesis, 2016)The presence of free water is considered as one of the major impurities for the pipeline transportation of gas. Corrosion and hydrate formation in the process plant equipment are common problems associated with the free ... -
Modeling, simulation and control of the inflow basin of a wastewater treatment plant
(Master thesis, 2016)Inflow basin is an important component for wastewater treatment plant, which can equalize the hydraulic and composition variations of wastewater inflow and stabilize the performance of nutrition and toxicants removal and ... -
Measurement and correlation of aqueous amine solution viscosities
(Master thesis, 2016)The viscosities of amines are important in designing equipment for Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture as it affects heat transfer coefficient, pressure drop in heat exchangers and piping system respectively. Reliable viscosity ... -
Utilization of waste heat from cement kiln exhaust gases for regeneration of loaded CO₂ capture media
(Master thesis, 2016)Dette prosjektet var basert på noe som skjer på Norcem Brevik, hvor de er interessert i å bygge et CO2-fangstanlegg. Og så har det seg det at de har veldig varmt eksosutslipp fra sementproduksjonen. Denne varmen er Norcem, ... -
Mass Flow-rate estimation in an open venturi channel using system identification A Study of Mud flow measurements in open venturi channel
(Master thesis, 2016)Drilling operations in oil and gas industry are getting more and more advanced and complicated. One of the main reasons is that the real time monitoring and control of the processes are getting complex in their executions. ...
