Regulations and procedures in themselves are not enough to ensure safety during oil-drilling operations, conclude SINTEF researchers who have studied the accident investigation reports from the Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. The project was carried out by a multidisciplinary group...
...the Prince William Sound Oil Spill Recovery Institute (OSRI) is to support research, rducational projects and demonstration projects - all of which are designed to address oil spills in Arctic and sub-Arctic marine environments. More about OSRI...

Ex situ characterisation of materials Participants: CNRS, ECN, IRD, SINTEF, FuMA Objectives to characterise MEA and stack components at beginning-of-life, end-of-test and end-of life to develop ex situ accelerated ageing tests for individual MEA component to relate operation conditions to ex situ characterisation...
...residual stresses in welded steel structures. Input to the model is the structure geometry, material properties, and welding procedure; the output includes the development of temperature, stress, and strain fields during the welding operation. The residual stress field is then made available for a failure...
...main objective of CREATE is to combine world-leading companies that supply equipment and technology with prominent scientific research institutions into a centre with a common focus to innovate technology, products and solutions specifically to improve the grow-out phase of marine fish culture...
...certain organisms to the raw milk. Others get there by chance and shape the end-product. But such games of chance will soon be a thing of the past. Nils Dyrset (left) and Geir Klinkenberg of SINTEF Materials and Chemistry are studying and culturing bacterial colonies in the laboratory in order to identify...

But what roles will...
...management research, and we have no qualms about emitting just a few grammes of sparkling CO2 in celebration. Starting in June 2017, more than 50 laboratories in five European countries will be coordinated from Trondheim. Three celebrations in one – an EU project, new laboratories, and the 100th anniversary...

One adult needs between 2 and 2.5 litres of drinking water per day. Dirty water is one of the main causes of disease, and the problem is greatest in poor areas. Photo: Thinkstock Ghana is a densely populated country with high levels of poverty, and access to clean water is a problem for many people...
Much of Norway’s fish processing industry is being moved abroad, and to compete with competitors in low-cost countries, we need to develop new techology. Our project known as TELOP: “Technology development for more profitable processing of farmed fish” aims to add more value to fish products here in...

Fossdal and Fride Vullum-Bruer want the i-Phone’s battery to last longer – even when we are on Svalbard, and even when we have downloaded a whole load of apps. On the Gløshaugen Campus in Trondheim, a handful of young scientists are working at full tilt on batteries. They come from both NTNU and SINTEF...
...mobility and manoeuvrability. SINTEF researchers are looking into whether snake robots could be the answer. So far, NASA has landed four rovers on Mars. These are solar-powered robots with six wheels and robotic arms that can take soil samples and operate cameras. Sojourner landed in 1997, Spirit and Opportunity...
