  1. 6. Reserve replacement in the oil and gas industry -A study on cost differences

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Peter Gedeck; Daniel Vigh; [2015-06-18]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background and the question at issue: When attempting to increment oil and gas reserves, an oil and gas company typically has two possibilities, either to prospect and develop reserves or to acquire reserves through a takeover of another company with proved reserves. In this thesis, the reader will find an approximated answer to the question at issue about which of these alternatives is the most cost effective. READ MORE

  2. 7. Petrophysical and GeophysicalAnalysis of Ordovician Limestone Mounds for the Purpose of Hydrocarbon Reservoir Exploration : Petrofysisk och geofysisk analys av Ordoviciska kalkstensstrukturer för hydrokarbonprospektering

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Felix Söderberg; [2015]
    Keywords : Gotland; hydrocarbons; Ordovicium; mounds; reefal structures; Hydrokarbon; revstruktur; slamhög; ordovicium; Gotland;

    Abstract : Gripen Oil & Gas have extended their prospecting license on Gotland to the north end of the island to search for potential hydrocarbon reservoirs. Earlier prospecting has shown that limestone mound structures from Ordovicium have high potential as hydrocarbon reservoirs due to their antiformal shape and the petrophysical properties of the limestone.

  3. 8. Hybrid CPU-GPU Parallel Simulations of 3D Front Propagation

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Ezhilmathi Krishnasamy; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This master thesis studies GPU-enabled parallel implementations of the 3D Parallel Marching Method (PMM). 3D PMM is aimed at solving the non-linear static Jacobi-Hamilton equations, which has real world applications such as in the study of geological foldings, where each layer of the Earth’s crust is considered as a front propagating over time.

  4. 9. Asset Valuation in a Low Carbon World - Value implications of oil price scenarios for US oil and gas assets

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Kitty Ekman Ehn; Zeinab Kassab; [2014]
    Keywords : Emission scenarios; oil price; risk analysis; demand effects; oil restrictions; 2-degree target; carbon budget; asset valuation; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : Scientists estimate that in order to contain global warming below 2°C, only around 900 GtCO2, can be emitted between 2013 and 2050. Recent research shows that in order to meet this target, global demand for fossil fuels has to decline. READ MORE

  5. 10. ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF 2D/3D SEISMIC DATA OVER DHURNAL OIL FIELD, NORTHERN PAKISTAN

    University essay from Geofysik
