"This book presents, in a self-contained form, the equations of fluid flow in porous media, with a focus on topics and issues that are relevant to petroleum reservoir engineering. No prior knowledge of the field is assumed on the part of the reader, and particular care is given …
Pressure diffusion equation for fluid flow in porous rocks -- Line source solution for a vertical well in an infinite reservoir -- Superposition and pressure buildup tests -- Effect of faults and linear boundaries -- Wellbore skin and wellbore storage -- Production from bounded …
Geological fluids are a central theme linking the petrography and chemistry of all rock types, deformation processes on the microscopic to the continental scale, and the concentration of economic resources. The fundamental importance of fluid migration and evolution to rock comp…
