...purpose has been to contribute towards lessons learned and provide recommendations for the industry in order to reduce the likelihood of a similar accident to occur in the Norwegian petroleum activity. On April 20, 2010, an uncontrolled blowout of oil and gas occurred on the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig...
Modellere og redusere usikkerhetene i levetidsprediksjon av stigerør basert på målrettede sannsynlighetsnivåer, ved bruk av probabilistisk og multi-fidelitetsmodellering med støtte...
TRACE utvikler kunnskap og metoder for bærekraftig utvikling av transportsektoren. Naturen og miljøet er under stadig større press. Derfor må vi utvikle transportsystemer som...
Målet med prosjektet er å systematisere ny kunnskap i form av modelleringsverktøy som beskriver fenomener, mekanismer og legeringsaspekter som er avgjørende for utviklingen av...
...material and a corresponding production process for automated industrial production of components for a patented type of fire stopping vents for buildings. Securo AS develops and produces vents (ventilation grilles) with a patented passive mechanism which blocks the spread of flames, heat and embers with...
...production that can handle a wider range of bauxite than the existing process. The process will minimise the environmental impact of bauxite mining and alumina production. Global aluminium metal consumption is expected to grow during the coming years. Aluminium metal is produced through electrolysis...
...project is based on three pillars: a broad and technically-advanced modelling portfolio; specific evaluation of the technology pathways; and active stakeholder dialogue and dissemination. A key concern, however, is the uncertainty in how the future will develop, and whether we can adequately guide technology...
The Norwegian Aluminium Industry is technology and environmentally at the global forefront. To achieve this, a continuous focus on developing new and better fundamental scientific understanding of process mechanisms are necessary. CaRMa looks at four important material areas used in the production of...
...microplastics. Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the marine environment. Plastic has a slow decomposition rate, and combined with volume of new plastic finding its way into rivers and ocean every year, the amount of plastic in the environment is accumulating. Beads used in personal care products or...
...work, health and performance. The degree of cold exposure is essential for the severity and risks associated with the exposure. Cold environment disturbs not only the machinery of industrial processes and vehicles, but is also very crucial factor to reduce worker's comfort, performance and safety. Indication...
SEARCULAR’s core objective is the reduction of marine litter and microplastics generated by European fisheries (demersal trawlers, demersal seiners, tropical tuna purse seiners) and to promote circular economy practices in the fishing industry. The fishing industry is a major contributor to marine litter...
...cost-effective and robust CO2 injection wells for carbon capture and storage (CCS). The project develops simulation tools to assess and optimize well integrity, improve well design and material selection, and increase safety and cost-efficiency for long-term CO2 storage. Carbon capture and storage (CCS)...
...(MaaS) platform that will provide the enabling technologies, equipment and services for the manufacturing of bulky parts of the capital goods sector, assuring the quality of the produced components while maximising productivity and minimising environmental impact. A significant opportunity in large part...
The DigiBygg project aims to achieve fast and cost-effective production of detailed digital building models, which will promote broader adoption of digital processes in the building sector. Digital transformation within the building sector Buildings are the single largest consumer of energy in Europe...
...surgeons with a visualization and navigation tool that can improve clinical decision-making and reduce the risk of surgical complications in cancer surgery. Surgical interventions are complex procedures involving a comprehensive team of healthcare professionals both before, during and after the surgery itself...
...indicated that cables in the future HVDC transmission grids for electric energy in the North Sea and other places may be subjected to temporary overvoltages significantly different in duration, amplitude, and waveform from what is currently observed. As these cables, like all other electrical power components...
...this by enabling personnel and AI-based systems to collaborate in identifying and learning from unwanted situations at the apron area of airports. 243,000 people are injured each year in accidents and incidents at the apron area at airports – which is where the airplanes park and the busiest area of an...
This project will provide knowledge and propose concrete and targeted preventive measures for reducing the risk of serious occupational accidents and work-related absences in the coastal fishing fleet. The fishing industry has long traditions in Norway and stands for a lot of value creation, but for...
...environment (Technology readiness level - TRL 5) The proposed technologies have been already validated at lab scale (TRL 3) in previous EU, national and international projects. We aim to bring them to TRL 5 by the end of the project. Impact The V-Access project will enhance the development of innovative...
...atmosphere, and so are also contributing to climate change. It is urgent to find solutions to fighting against harmful gas emissions, unsustainable fuels, waste management and contributing to a more sustainable, circular economy. One way of tackling these challenges is through the research into and production...
