  • Report for Hhchen's DL Tour in Finland and Norway-V2
    REPORT FOR COMSOC DISTINGUISHED LECTURER TOUR Name of Lecturer: Hsiao-Hwa Chen Region: Europe, Middle-East, & Africa Region 8 Location: Helsinki (Finland), Oslo (Norway) and Grimstad (Norway) August 11-August 24, 2018 Under the support of ComSoc, I have made a Distinguished Lecture tour in August 2018. In this DL tour, I traveled from Taiwan to two Nordic countries, and stayed in Helsinki (Finland), Oslo (Norway), and Grimstad (Norway) to give three lectures in three locations from August 11 to 24, 2018 (including the days for my arrival and departure). This DL tour was very successful. I delivered three DL talks in three different institute or universities in Finland and Norway, and one is located in Helsinki, and the other two are located in Oslo and Grimstad, respectively, Norway. The topic of my DL talks was “Complementary Coded Code Hopping Multiple Access – A NOMA Scheme”. I left Taiwan on August 11, 2018, for Hong Kong, in order to catch my flight to Helsinki in the morning of August 12, 2018. In this way, I had to stay over-night in Hong Kong, due to the fact that there is no direct flight from Taiwan to Helsinki. My first DL talk was given in VTT of Finland in Helsinki on August 13, 2018, and hosted by Dr. Tao Chen, who is a Senior Scientist working in the VTT, which is an abbreviation of its Finnish name. The English name of VTT is “Technical Research Center of Finland Ltd”. VTT is one of the leading research and technology organizations in Europe. Its research and innovation services give its partners from both private and public all over 1 the world a competitive edge.

  • Knowledge Based Oil and Gas Industry
    Knowledge Based Oil and Gas Industry by Amir Sasson and Atle Blomgren Research Report 3/2011 BI Norwegian Business School Department of Strategy and Logistics Amir Sasson and Atle Blomgren: Knowledge Based Oil and Gas Industry © Amir Sasson and Atle Blomgren 2011 Forskningsrapport 03/2011 ISSN: 0803‐2610 BI Norwegian Business School N‐0442 Oslo Phone: 4641 0000 www.bi.no Print: Nordberg BI’s Research Reports may be ordered from our website www.bi.no/en/research‐publications. Executive Summary This study presents the Norwegian upstream oil and gas industry (defined as all oil and gas- related firms located in Norway, regardless of ownership) and evaluates the industry according to the underlying dimensions of a global knowledge hub - cluster attractiveness, education attractiveness, talent attractiveness, R&D and innovation attractiveness, ownership attractiveness, environmental attractiveness and cluster dynamics. The Norwegian oil and gas industry was built upon established Norwegian competences in mining (geophysics), maritime operations and maritime construction (yards), with invaluable inputs from foreign operators and suppliers. At present, the industry is a complete cluster of 136,000 employees divided into several sectors: Operators (22,000), Geo & Seismics (4,000), Drill & Well (20,000), Topside (43,000), Subsea (13,000) and Operations Support (34,000). The value creation from operators and suppliers combined represents one-third of total Norwegian GDP (2008). The Norwegian oil and gas industry has for many years been a highly attractive cluster in terms of technical competence. The last ten years have also seen improvements in terms of access to capital and quality of financial services provided.
