Dynamic spare parts transportation model for Arctic production facility
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-09-14)
Timely delivery of the required spare parts plays an important role in meeting the
availability target and reducing the downtime of production facilities. Spare parts logistics is
affected in complex ways while operating in the Arctic, since the area is sparsely populated and
has insufficient infrastructure. It is also greatly affected by the distinctive operational
environment of the region, ...
Shipping oil from the Russian Arctic: Past experiences and future prospects
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-06)
Transport of oil from Russian Arctic ports to Western markets was insignificant prior to 2002.
In 2002, there was a major surge, with 5 million tonnes delivered westwards through the
Barents Sea. By 2004, this had increased to 12 million tonnes. Since then, annual volumes
have been on levels between 9 and 15 million tonnes. In the near future, the flow of oil cargo
in the Arctic may rise ...
Evaluating Visual Saliency Algorithms: Past, Present and Future
(Tidsskriftartikkel; Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-09-01)
With the introduction of compressed sensing (CS) theory, investigation into exploiting sparseness and optimizing compressive sensing performance has ensued. Compressed sensing is highly applicable to images, which naturally have sparse representations. Improvements in the area of image denoising have resulted from the combination of highly-directional transforms with shrinkage and thresholding ...
Oil spill emergency preparedness in the Russian Arctic : a study of the Murmansk region.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
The issue of oil spill emergency response in north-west Russia has become increasingly important following a substantial increase in maritime transport and major offshore developments in Russian waters. This study is an initial effort to outline the public and private agencies and organizations involved in handling oil spills in the Murmansk region and the structure of the oil spill emergency response ...
Performance of an Ultrasonic Imaging System Based on a 45-MHz Linear PVDF Transducer Array: A Numerical Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
New designs of high-resolution ultrasonic imaging systems that operate in the 30–100MHz region, for example, those based on linear transducer systems, are currently being investigated for medical purposes. Acoustic waves with frequencies in this range can detect microscopic structures in human tissue but will typically only penetrate a few mm because of large attenuation. However,
this is sufficient ...

Spare Part Transportation Management in High North
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
The demanding physical conditions of the Arctic, remote location, and uncertainty regarding
the travel time can both heighten the challenges related to transportation of spare part in the
region. Managing to get the appropriate path for transportation of spare parts for oil and gas
industries in the region, is one of the major and demanding tasks. In this paper we develop the
concept of ...
