Oil & Gas Production in Nontechnical Language
PennWell Books (Verlag)
978-1-59370-386-8 (ISBN)
This nontechnical treatment of oil and gas production is an excellent introduction for anyone from petroleum engineers and geologists new to their careers to financial, marketing, legal, and other professionals and their staffs interested in the industry. E&P service company personnel will find it particularly beneficial in understanding the roles played by their clients. Not only does it cover production fundamentals, but it backs up to give the necessary upstream background—geology, origins of oil and gas, and ownership and land rights—as well as surface operations and even production company strategy development.
Key Features:
A comprehensive view of the entire E&P function
Geology and the origins of petroleum
Reservoir characteristics and behavior
Expanded coverage of drilling and hydraulic fracturing
Conventional and not-so-conventional (oil sands plus shale oil and gas) producing operations
Production problems and solutions
The different types of companies and jobs in the oil patch and how they interact
