However, coiled tubing drilling is limited to slim holes, and the reliability of some of the drill string components such as downhole motors needs further improvement. Presently, the cost of building a new customised CTD rig limits the wider application of this emerging technology. 

However, in recent years the trend has been turning towards developing much smaller fields, making use of the existing field infrastructure. This, in combination with advances in subsea completion technology and the introduction of new production equipment has further stimulated the application of subsea technology. 

In new developments, test separators may be substituted by multiphase metering devices which can quantitatively measure volumes of oil, gas and water without the need of separation. This technology is under development. 

New technology is applied to existing fields to enhance production. For example, horizontal development wells have been drilled in many mature fields to recover remaining oil, especially where the remaining oil is present in thin oil columns after the gas cap and/or aquifer have swept most of the oil. Lately, the advent of multi-lateral wells drilled with coiled tubing have provided a low cost option to produce remaining oil as well as low productivity reservoirs. 

Enhancements to the process may be required due to sub-optimal initial design of the equipment, or to implement new technology, or because an idea for improving the production system has emerged. De-bottlenecking would be an example of an... 

Article is denoted to the investigation and the creation of the new ultrasonic and information technologies (IT) and the technical methods of non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of material state in the product, which are based on principles of ultrasonic computing tomography (USCT). These results concern two important questions ... 

The new generation of eddy current instruments mainly uses digital technology. When developing a new instrument, it is therefore necessary to get the most out of irmovation. 

For a few months, results obtained on a pre-industrial version of this new photothermal camera allow this technology to enter into the industrial step of its development. 

Due to large improvements in computer technology in combination with new designs of area x-ray detector systems it is possible to extend the 2D-CT systems up to the third dimension. Therefor special algorithms and techniques for 3D-CT of the measured projection data and 3D visualisation and measurement of the results had to be developed. 

Concerning the spatial resolution of NR images the present IP are not adequate to the best film based direct neutron imaging techniques. However, with time-and the development of new IP technology there are good possibilities to improve the inherent unsharpness of the IP systems to the level even better than with Gd/film combination ... 

The new design introduced here may help to overcome this restriction by making the advantages of this technology affordable for lower power applications. 

At present time, our company is running a development project on the production technology of the MCB type X-ray tubes. The goals of this project are the improvement of the existing technology and making available new tube designs in the near future. 

The results of both experiments showed that the analysis in the frequency domain provides new technological possibilities of testing characteristics of austenitic steels. Using known phase-frequency characteristics of structural noises it is possible to construct algorithms for separation of useful signal from the defect, even through amplitude values of noise and signal are close in value. 

The computerised ultrasonic P-scan system (FORCE Institute, Denmark) has been in operation in Ukraine since 1992. Over this period rather extensive new technological experience has been accumulated of solving the complicated tasks of reliability of the constructions the design life of which is over.

New technological capabilities in the performance of ultrasonic testing were implemented in the application of computerised flaw detectors, which allow development of new technologies and control of various especially critical and complex components. 

Introduction of new technology for example non - invasive testing methods to extend the duration between, or reduce the time taken for, invasive inspections in pressure systems.
