Development of new methods and tracers for inflow monitoring

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

Since 2005, RESMAN has focused on technology for downhole inflow monitoring of oil, water, and gas in production wells using unique intelligent tracers embedded in a polymer matrix. To utilize the massive potential that lies in inflow monitoring technology the longevity of the monitoring needs to increase, potentially to the lifetime of the well. The underlying idea for the project is to develop new tracers and new/improved methods for tracer detection enabling continuous monitoring for current and new applications. A detailed understanding of the field samples is required to allow characterization of the interfering compounds with state-of-the-art analytical instrumentation.
