SINTEF is cooperating with Statoil and the technology company Nacre in the development of next-generation hearing protection and communication technology for the offshore industry. The aim of the collaborative project is to further develop the company’s “QUIETPRO®intelligent earplug” technology, which...

...scientists from SINTEF and Indian Institute of Petroleum (IIP) in India have attempted to develop cheaper methods to reduce the amount of sulphur in petrol. They have now produced results they are considering patenting. Restrictions Sulphur in fuel is harmful to the environment, and restrictions in this...

Illustration: www.doghouse.no The touch screen has evolved over time. Although many smart phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs) had touch screens long before Apple entered the market, the iPhone, introduced in 2007, was one of the first user-friendly smart phones with a touch screen. Two types...

...to accurately represent horizontal and multilateral wells, but can also be used to create volumetric representations of fracture networks. Boundary alignment of cell faces is introduced to accurately preserve geological features such as layers, fractures, faults, and/or pinchouts. The module implements...

The main advantages of the CRIOP method is the ability of reducing costs and risks in the design process. The CRIOP analysis is under a continous development, thus it is future-oriented. Cost reducing The cost of changes increases significant between each phase in the design process. Experience shows...

So now we have it in black and white – the emotional centre in young men's brains overrides the area controlling their ability to make rational decisions. This leads to accidents among risk-seeking motorists. By Åse Dragland Last autumn, in a laboratory at the University of Turku in Finland, thirty-four...
