Governments, the community and industry expect public policy to be implemented effectively and efficiently, particularly when that policy and regulation affects the economic well being and environmental values of the nation. The offshore petroleum exploration and production industry is a case where public policy and regulation are attracting national focus through discussions on the timing of world peak oil production and the future of national and global oil and gas production.

Abstract:

The theme of this thesis is the depletion of petroleum (crude oil and natural gas). Are there reasons to be concerned about an ‘end of cheap oil’ in the near future? There is a lively debate regarding this issue. The debate is sometimes described as a clash of ‘concerned’ natural scientists and ‘unconcerned’ economists. However, this clash is both harmful and unnecessary. The views of natural scientists and economists can and should be reconciled. At the micro-level, geological and physical factors (such as diminishing reservoir productivity) are parameters in the producer’s economic optimizat

ABSTRACT The availability of useful information for research strongly depends on well structured relationships between consistently defined concepts (terms) in that domain. This can be achieved through ontologies. Ontologies are models of the knowledge of specific domain such as petroleum geology, in a computer understandable format. Knowledge is a collection of facts. Facts are represented by RDF triples (subject-predicate-object). A domain ontology is therefore a collection of many RDF triples, which represent facts of that domain. The SWEET ontologies are upper or top-level ontologies (foun

There is a vast literature on the distortionary effects of the tax-royalty system, while the effects of Production Sharing Contract (PSC) is largely understudied. Moreover, economic studies typically oversimplify the physics of the field and consequently end up with models which do not necessarily fully reflect the reality. In this study, we build a dynamic optimisation model which nests the physics of the reservoir and investigates the distortionary effects of a PSC.

Abstract:

<p> Steam stimulation is by far the most widely used tertiary oil recovery method. Heavy oil finds its most effective way of production in thermal recovery method. Also with technical effectiveness, steam stimulation brings in cost effectiveness. In-situ steam generation and injection is the most important enhancement to the conventional thermal steam injection technique. Blackbird™ Energy LLC, has developed and a new generation in-situ steam generator with a view to make an almost unproductive heavy oil reservoir in North East Texas to start producing. </p><p> In this research, a rese

Abstract:

Magister Philosophiae - MPhil<br>There are relatively few women in senior leadership or management positions in South African industry. The oil industry is no exception to this and could in fact be considered to exemplify the ways in which women are marginalised. This small-scale qualitative project aims to explore challenges and experiences women face when entering senior management positions in the Petroleum Industry in Cape Town. The main objective of the study is to explore how gender (and other relevant subject positions) impacts on women's career development and opportunities. I us

Abstract:

This thesis suggests that an optimization model can be used as decision support when different subsea solutions are evaluated in order to increase hydrocarbon recovery and production lifetime of a field. The Marlim field in Campos Basin outside the coast of Brazil is used as a case, which is a field described as an aging field with increasing water production and declining profitability. The objective for the model is to maximize the net present value of a production asset by evaluating the installation of subsea boosters, subsea water separators and alternative routing solutions. The case con

Abstract:

This thesis describes the extension of the Finite Element Method with zero-thickness interface elements (FEM+z) to 3D, large and complex problems in geomaterials, with special interest in petroleum geomechanics. This general objective has led to specific developments and applications such as the 3D code implementations and parallelization, and the specific petroleum geomechanics studies, both the macroscale (hydraulic fracture) and microscale (sand production). The extension to 3D of the hydro-mechanical formulation of double node zero-thickness interface elements proposed earlier, has been
