This book from NACE addresses the many changes in the practice and use of waters in oilfield applications that have occurred since the publication of Ostroff’s classic, Introduction to Oilfield Water Technology. Replacing the older book, Oilfield Water Technology covers all aspects of water relevant to oilfield activities, including uses, treatment, corrosion and materials, microbiology, and environmental concerns. Sections of the original edition that are still relevant have been retained and updated, while entirely new chapters cover major advances in materials and treatment chemicals. Differences in practice in various parts of the world are featured.
