About the Author Dr
New to this edition is a section on the fundamentals of surface production operations taking up topics from the oilfield as originally planned by the authors in the first edition. The latest edition of this best-selling title is updated and expanded for easier use by engineers. · New in-depth coverage of hydrocarbon characteristics, the different kinds of reservoirs, and impurities in crude.· Practical suggestions help readers understand the art and science of handling produced liquids.· Numerous, easy-to-read figures, charts, tables, and photos clearly explain how to design, specify, and operate oilfield surface production facilities.. This information is necessary and endemic to production and process engineers. Now, the book offers a truly complete picture of surface production operations, from the production stage to the process stage with applications to process and
KevinH said Lots of errors. I'll start with the good. This book has some pretty good figures and schematics of different facilities and equipment. Thus I would recommend this book if you have never seen them before and wanted a visual.And now the bad. I would not recommend this book as a classroom text. As a senior petroleum engineering student, I am currently enrolled in a class that uses this book. The reason this book is so distasteful is primarily because of the never ending typographical errors. Without exaggerating, I have found over "Lots of errors" according to KevinH.

Great Reference & Educational Book Very well written book. Great reference manual for those working in oil & gas and great learning tool for those who want to get into it. It's amazing how many people in oil & gas just want to understand by going to a facility (really there isn't a whole lot to see other than a wellhead, separator, a tank, and maybe a dehy). You really want to understand the principles first and the "why". This book does it.
