Norway is rich in natural resources, especially different types of rocks that could potentially serve as raw material for alternative binder concepts like alkali activated binders or magnesium phosphate and magnesium hydroxy carbonate cements. Another less studied concept, as discussed in this paper...
A Weathering study has been conducted on Fogelberg condensate. The weathering study is based on a small-scale laboratory testing at 13 degrees C. The SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM) is used to predict the weathering properties of Fogelberg at sea. The weathering properties of Fogelberg are...
We have conducted a literature review and a simplified one-dimensional modelling study on the fate of methane bubbles and dissolved methane in the water column originating from methane seeps. From the literature review, we have found that the physical processes describing the rise and dissolution of...
A campaign on carbon capture from biomass flue gas was carried out at Tiller pilot plant
during 30th September - 8th November 2019. Biomass was supplied by Drax power station.
SRD of 3.57MJ/kgCO2 was obtained for MEA, in agreement with typical values for MEA.
The plant was down at various time...
When a ship is moving forward in waves it will experience an increase in resistance in waves. Traditionally, ship designs are optimized for calm water performance. However, this condition does not reflect the real condition the vessel will experience at sea. The International Maritime Organization...
This report describes a research cruise carried out on a pelagic purse seiner during the
autumn 2020 on the North Sea. The cruise was carried out to perform an assessment of
the energy efficiency of the onboard RSW system. In order to execute this assessment,
the vessel was instrumented with...
Global warming is causing increased temperatures and reduced snow cover, which threatens the possibility to exercise winter sports activities near populated areas in the future. Temperature Independent Snow (TIS) production can contribute to increase the snow reliability for winter sport. However...
The focus of the project "Methods of aggregation and disaggregation" are improved mathematical methods and computer tools for aggregation and disaggregation of hydro power systems in optimization models. These techniques are necessary for calculating the optimal utilisation of hydropower production...
This document provides a specification for an oil spill barrier status panel (OS‐BSP) for
Goliat. It covers general requirements and principles, breakdown structure of barrier
functions, systems and elements, status information, aggregation rules and calculations...
Implications of linking local and international emission targets.
Political ambitions to mitigate climate change are driving the transformation of energy systems. These ambitions imply that greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the energy sector must reduce dramatically within the next decades...
WINDMOOR is a Competence Building Project (KPN), with the main objective of improving the under-standing of loads governing the mooring system design of floating wind turbines (FWTs). As a base case, the project adopts a semi-submersible platform supporting a 12 MW wind turbine. This report...
