Data integration is a
key to success
The Norne
Field has been selected by NTNU and
Equinor to become a pilot field for
petroleum research and education, and
the Norne pilot is central in much of
the research and education at the in
Department of Geoscience and Petroleum,
NTNU. The Norne Field will be an
integrated part of the village
activities, aiming at developing new
ideas for better and cleaner
production.
|
The Norne Field is located west of
Sandnessjøen, and is operated by
Equinor in Harstad. The area also includes
several smaller fields, such as of
Alve, Svale and Stær.
The
database of the Norne Field is
installed and frequently updated at
the Department of
Geoscience and Petroleum. The data
will be an important basis for all
project work in the village.
|
|
The group projects in Norne
village include a wide variety of topics,
from Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) to
alternative energy sources for the Norne
FPSO (Floating Production Storage and
Offloading) ship.
The group
projects will naturally have a basis in
petroleum geosciences and petroleum
engineering, however, students from other
technology areas are welcomed. Sufficient
training will be given as needed. Each
group will consist of students from
various study programs in order to form a
multidisciplinary team. Each group will be
assigned advisors both from NTNU and
Equinor.
