The future of aviation is unmanned. But unmanned aerial vehicles – or drones – are not just of interest to the aviation industry. Nearly every industrial and commercial sector has been experimenting with drone technology over the past 5 years, and...
Unlike the fully grown human nervous system, a rapidly developing technological counterpart is still in its early infancy – Distributed Fibre Optic Sensing (DFO).
This article will discuss in particular how advances in measurement and sensing capabilities will promote the next innovation in the petrochemical industry. Following the shale oil revolution, the next breakthrough will be the generation of ideas...
SINTEF, in collaboration with NTNU, has completed a study entitled “Industrielle muligheter og arbeidsplasser ved storskala CO2-håndtering i Norge” (Industrial opportunities and employment prospects in large-scale CO2 management in Norway). The study...
In NCCS (NCCS Task 7) we work to improve and expand our knowledge on the design and operation of safe and efficient CO2-transport systems. Part of this is to understand CO2 flows that are out of equilibrium.
Unlike the fully grown human nervous system, a rapidly developing technological counterpart is still in its early infancy – Distributed Fibre Optic Sensing (DFO).
Implementation of large-scale CCS is currently mainly limited by cost aspects. The storage and monitoring are parts of the value chain where significant cost reduction is desired. However, the geological reservoir and seal are difficult to...
When China wants to exploit its hydropower resources, they can ask Norwegian researchers for advice. It is now possible for hydropower companies in China to read the handbook for environmental design of regulated rivers in their own language.
They are lightweight, strong, and resistant to corrosion and decay. In the future, bridges in Norway could be made of fibre-reinforced plastic elements, which extend their lifespans and reduce life cycle costs.
SINTEF has designed and manufactured the test rig that mainly will be used for full scale vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) testing of risers and other type of cylindrical structures.
SINTEF made a pre-tax profit of NOK 234 million in 2017. This is SINTEF’s best financial result ever.
The annual report for FME HighEFF is now ready.
The annual report for FME CINELDI is now ready.
The annual report for FME NCCS is now ready.
Norwegian research scientists are contributing to the development of the world’s hottest geothermal well in a non-volcanic area. The goal is to exploit the inexhaustible supply of heat from the interior of the Earth, and this calls for equipment that...
