"This book is fast becoming the standard text in its field", wrote a reviewer in the Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology soon after the first appearance of Dake's book. This prediction quickly came true: it has become the standard text and has been reprinted many times. The author's aim - to provide students and teachers with a coherent account of the basic physics of reservoir engineering - has been most successfully achieved. No prior knowledge of reservoir engineering is necessary. The material is dealt with in a concise, unified and applied manner, and only the simplest and most straightforward mathematical techniques are used. This low-priced paperback edition will continue to be an invaluable teaching aid for years to come.
Inorganic Chemistry in Liquid Ammonia
Given that modern reservoir engineering is largely centered on numerical computer simulation and that reservoir engineers in the industry will likely spend much of their professional career building and running such simulators, the book ...
Written in easy to understand language, the book provides valuable information regarding present-day tools, techniques, and technologies and explains best practices on reservoir management and recovery approaches.
The job of any reservoir engineer is to maximize production from a field to obtain the best economic return. To do this, the engineer must study the behaviour and characteristics...
This is done in Chap. 4, where the evaluation of fractures porosity and permeability, their correlation and the equivalent ideal geometrical models versus those parameters are discussed in great detail.
The moles of hydrocarbons in-place (reservoir gas and reservoir condensate) are related to the hydrocarbon pore volume by the Real-Gas Law, provided the two-phase z-factor is used instead of the single phase zfactor.
Therefore, simplicity is the theme of this volume. Reservoir and production engineers, geoscientists, petrophysicists, and those involved in the management of oil and gas fields will want this edition.
This book explains the basic technologies, concepts, approaches, and terms used in relation to reservoir rocks.
This book provides a clear and basic understanding of the concept of reservoir engineering to professionals and students in the oil and gas industry.
The book may be also useful for petroleum engineers who work in oil industry. The book can serve as reference book for other people who are interested in petroleum industry. The book consists of 6 chapters.
