The accurate prediction of reservoir quality is, and will continue to be, a key challenge for hydrocarbon exploration and development. This volume compiles worldwide case studies covering some predictive aspects of both siliciclastic and carbonate reservoir characteristics. The …
Geologists who map organic facies can project the geographical distribution of petroleum source rocks. These maps provide a foundation for calculating the timing of petroleum generation and for determining realistic migration pathways to potential reservoir traps. In some geogra…
The subject of petroleum migration is central to all thinking about origin and accumulation. It is an invisible target with no real-time observations of the actual movement of oil or gas under natural conditions at depth. Therefore, concepts and models have been devised to repre…
"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 …
