Describes the basic simulation models for drilling deep wells with air or gas drilling fluids, gasified two-phase drilling fluids, and stable foam drilling fluids. This title discusses both oil and natural gas industry applications, and geotechnical (water well, environmental, and mining) industry a[...]
Designed for technical professionals who need a 'quick look up' reference for solving day-to-day engineering, management, and optimization problems, this working guide provides those new to reservoir engineering a starting point for understanding the basics and going on to formulate effective workfl[...]
Offers fundamental, basic knowledge of the intricacies of drilling fluid, drilled solids management, drill bits, drill string design, directional drilling, cementing, casing, hydraulic optimization, and a discussion of predominant problems such as stuck pipe and lost circulation.[...]
Covers 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 basis for understanding important concepts such a flow phenomena, hydrate formation, pressure (surge) waves, or hig[...]
