This is a complete, up-to-date guide to the practice of petroleum reservoir engineering, covering topics ranging from basic to advanced, and focusing on currently acceptable practices and modern techniques. The author begins by discussing the sources and applications of basic rock and fluid properties data. Next, he shows how to predict PVT properties of reservoir fluids from correlations and equations of state, and presents core concepts and techniques of reservoir engineering. Readers will find practical coverage of procedures for geologic modeling, reservoir characterization, and reservoir simulation.
