1. 1. Giant Oil Fields - The Highway to Oil : Giant Oil Fields and their Importance for Future Oil Production

   Författare :Fredrik Robelius; Kjell Aleklett; Robert Hirsch; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Engineering physics; giant oil fields; URR; future oil production; peak oil; forecast; Teknisk fysik;

   Sammanfattning : Since the 1950s, oil has been the dominant source of energy in the world. The cheap supply of oil has been the engine for economic growth in the western world. Since future oil demand is expected to increase, the question to what extent future production will be available is important. LÄS MER

3. 2. World oil supply in the 21st century : A bottom-up perspective

   Författare :Henrik Wachtmeister; Mikael Höök; Jamie Speirs; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; oil supply; oil production; oil prices; bottom-up; projections; conventional oil; tight oil; shale oil; Natural Resources and Sustainable Development; Naturresurser och hållbar utveckling;

   Sammanfattning : Oil-fuelled progress was a defining feature of the 20th century, and still today, oil remains the world’s largest primary energy source. Yet, oil is a non-renewable and carbon-intensive resource, either depletion or resulting carbon emissions will ultimately limit its use. LÄS MER

5. 4. Partial Discharge Signatures of Defects in Insulation Systems Consisting of Oil and Oil-impregnated Paper

   Författare :Mohamad Ghaffarian Niasar; Hans Edin; Peter Werelius; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; partial discharge; transformer; oil; ageing; temperature; PD classification;

   Sammanfattning : Partial discharge measurement is a common method for monitoring and diagnostics of power transformers, and can detect insulation malfunctions before they lead to failure. Different parameters extracted from the measured PD activity can be correlated to the PD source, and as a result it is possible to identify the PD source by analyzing the PD activity. LÄS MER

7. 5. Modeling Oil Exploration and Production : Resource-Constrained and Agent-Based Approaches

   Författare :Kristofer Jakobsson; Kjell Aleklett; Rob Hart; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Oil production; forecasting; modeling; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik; Engineering Science with specialization in the Science of Global Energy Resources; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot globala energiresurser;

   Sammanfattning : Energy is essential to the functioning of society, and oil is the single largest commercial energy source. Some analysts have concluded that the peak in oil production is soon about to happen on the global scale, while others disagree. LÄS MER
