Advanced Blowout and Well Control

In petroleum industry drilling operations even the most simple blowout can kill people and cost millions of dollars in equipment losses - and millions more in environmental damage and ensuing litigation. Government environmental and safety requirements demand that operating companies and drilling contractor personnel be rigorously trained in well control procedures and in responding to blowouts when they occur.

The book reviews classical pressure control procedures. In addition, specific situations are presented along with detailed procedure to analyze alternatives and tackle problems. The use of fluid dynamics in well control, which the author pioneered, is given careful treatment, along with many other topics such as relief well operations, underground blowouts, slim hole drilling problems, and special services such as fire fighting, capping, and snubbing. Case histories are presented, analyzed, and discussed.

NMR Logging Principles and Aplications

Well logging, the economic method of choice for evaluating drilled formations, has progressively improved its determination of porosity and fractional fluid saturation, but could not provide a systematic estimate of permeability. This shortcoming was why Nuclear Magnetic Resonance captured the interest of the petroleum industry when researchers published results showing a good permeability correlation in the 1960’s.

Unfortunately this industry interest was left waiting for nearly 30 years on a reliable downhole measurement of NMR relaxation. In 1992, when NUMAR introduced its MRIL logging service this wait was over; and it was soon demonstrated that the long hoped for permeability determination could be systematically provided, especially in shaly sand formations.

Oil Well Testing Handbook By Amanat U. Chaudhry

This is a valuable addition to any reservoir engineer's library, containing the basics of well testing methods as well as all of the latest developments in the field. Not only are "evergreen" subjects, such as layered reservoirs, naturally fractured reservoirs, and wellbore effects, covered in depth, but newer developments, such as well testing for horizontal wells, are covered in full chapters.

Enhanced Oil Recovery

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is oil recovery by the injection of materials not normally present in the reservoir; this book illustrates a range of methods and the importance of fractional flow theory and phase behavior as a means of understanding EOR from a reservoir engineering standpoint. Both professional researchers and students in all areas dealing with flow in permeable media will find this book to be a valuable day-to-day resource. While there is enough background and general knowledge in the book to interest anyone associated with enhanced oil recovery, there is also a good representation of specialized material; the author provides a pedagogical basis for the discipline of enhanced oil recovery, and he covers all forms of EOR.
