This wheel gave the Berling field lower CO2 emissions and saved the construction project for several hundred million NOK
Research on «ice plugs» in pipes gave the oil company OMV the confidence to omit heating cables.
Transport of oil and gas
The world record for long distance multiphase flow transport is 143 km – from the Snøhvit field to onshore. The multiphase flow transport of the future will take place over much longer distances. In order to achieve energy-effective "free flow" solutions, physicists and chemists need to work closely together. Solutions need to be tested and qualified in the world's largest multiphase flow laboratory.

Simulation model may reduce the climate footprint of oil production
Future offshore oil and gas fields are most likely to be “satellite developments” that are less expensive and emit less greenhouse gases than other fields because they do not require new production platforms. An innovative Norwegian computational...
