Important Note:

• Please note the Industrial Reports have been reviewed and approved. In particular, the following numbers have been REVIEWD and APPROVED by the second and third external parties (i.e Expert from industrial partner/ client and finally Expert appointed by RCN- Research Council of Norway):

Reports Reviewed and approved by second experts: No. 36, 37, 39, 52, 56

Reports Reviewed and approved by second and third experts: 32, 33, 34, 42, 51, 53, 59, 60, 61

• Note : Please note the fact that NOT all industrial results have been publishable due to proprietary issues following the company strategy in publication manner. especially when it comes to failure analyse within the Oil and gas industry such as OREDA Association (safety integrity level 2009-2011) and Statoil offshore platform operation (e.g. Advanced Wellbore Transport and Cementing Irregular Wellbore Geometries 2012-2014) as well as patent issues at Outokumpu (Sub merge Nozzle for Strip Casting and Next generation heat sink Design, 2002-2005). Some of those reports has been classified as “Restricted Distribution” as the reports analyse the effect of highly sensitive parameters that had direct impact on the production capacity and consequently the profit of the company.
