    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)” . If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

    A Guide To Water Well Casing and Screen Selection A Note About Roscoe Moss Company Roscoe Moss Company, publisher of this guide, has been engaged in the development of ground water since the 1890's. Originating as a water well drilling contractor operating in the Southwest, the firm has constructed thousands of wells throughout the United States and in ten foreign countries. In 1926, Roscoe Moss began the manufacture of water well casing and screens. Emphasis on the development of these products has brought the company to the forefront of specialists in the marketing of these materials. Completing its uniqueness as a firm engaged in all phases of ground-water development, Roscoe Moss has an active interest in two large California water utilities serving 1.8 million people. Included in their supply sources are over 500 high capacity water wells. The material contained in this pamphlet is in based on a broad practical knowledge of water well design, construction, operation and maintenance, as well as steel products manufacture. These resources are enhanced by an ongoing systematic research and evaluation program.

Beltcov ………………………………………… (Writer’s signature) Faculty supervisor: Professor Ove Tobias Gudmestad (University of Stavanger) External supervisor(s): Professor Anatoly Borisovich Zolotukhin (Gubkin University) Title of thesis: «Development concepts for Sakhalin's offshore field development» Credits (ECTS):30 Key words: Pages: 15 + enclosure: 4 Concept development, Concept selection, Sakhalin’s Island offshore development, Concept selection criteria. Stavanger, June, 15, 2016 Abstract When a company undertakes to develop an oilfield, certain activities represent the foundation of the development, ranging from information about the metocean conditions at the site to marketing. The concept phase itself includes screening of concepts, selection of concept and concept development. Use of engineering data and calculations that represents a feasibility study of offshore oil and gas field is essentially the screening of concepts. The selection of concept consists of finding a solution that would meet world technical, environmental and safety demands. Despite the fact that Sakhalin Island shelf contains enormous hydrocarbon reserves, it is also a very environmentally sensitive region. High environmental risks and extreme weather conditions entail high capital expenditures, which put significant burden of responsibility on the project team during the development concept stage. This is of great importance during the early stages of concept selection. Selecting the optimum Sakhalin Shelf development concept is the aim of my thesis. Significance in the concept selection chain affects selection of various parameters affecting the optimum development concept and subsequent prioritization. Special attention is paid to challenges and peculiarities that can be faced at the Sakhalin Region and could affect the concept of field development.
