Description
Based on the classic Standard Handbook of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering, Second Edition, the
Working Guide to Petroleum
and Natural Gas Production Engineering begins with an extensive overview of the basic principles, definitions, and data. Later
chapters cover properties of hydrocarbon mixtures, flow natural flow of fluids, natural flow performance, artificial lift methods and
corrosion and scaling. This book provides engineers with a bases for understanding important concepts such a flow phenomena, hydrate
formation, pressure (surge) waves, or high viscosity liquid flow failure. The focus of book is to assist the reader to understand and
avoid potential operational challenges and design effective solutions and operational responses.
