Description
Advanced Reservoir Engineering offers the practicing engineer and engineering student a full description, with worked examples, of all
of the kinds of reservoir engineering topics that the engineer will use in day-to-day activities. In an industry where there is often
a lack of information, this timely volume gives a comprehensive account of the physics of reservoir engineering, a thorough knowledge
of which is essential in the petroleum industry for the efficient recovery of hydrocarbons.
Chapter one deals exclusively with the
theory and practice of transient flow analysis and offers a brief but thorough hands-on guide to gas and oil well testing. Chapter two
documents water influx models and their practical applications in conducting comprehensive field studies, widely used throughout the
industry. Later chapters include unconventional gas reservoirs and the classical adaptations of the material balance equation.
Audience:
Reservoir Engineers, Petroleum Geologists, Geology Students.
