Operational limits for a stimulation vessel in the Northern Caspian Sea conditions
Master's thesis in Offshore technology This Master’s thesis describes the concept development of a stimulation and well service vessel and the evaluation of its operational limits in Northern Caspian Sea conditions during a whole year of operation (all 4 seasons). Possible options and solutions...
