Recent Developments in Petroleum Science (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781682867433)

Petroleum science is a broad term that integrates the principles of petroleum engineering, petroleum geology and exploration geophysics. Petroleum geology studies the origin, movement and exploration of hydrocarbon fuels. It evaluates different elements of sedimentary basins such as reservoir, seal, trap, timing, maturation and migration. Geophysical survey data is applied in exploration geophysics to analyze potential reservoirs of petroleum. Methods used for finding such deposits include seismic reflection, well logging, remote sensing techniques, etc. Petroleum engineering is a field of engineering that deals with the production of crude oil or natural gas. It focuses on the optimal recovery of hydrocarbons from reservoirs. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of petroleum science. It presents this complex subject in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students, researchers, experts and professionals.
