Fundamentals of Formation TestingBy Schlumberger

Cost-effective formation testing is a vital part of modern oil and gas operations. As production companies pursue reserves in high-cost, high-risk environments, formation testing plays an increas-ingly prominent role in decision making, but complete understanding of downhole conditions is crucial from the first exploratory well to wells drilled for enhanced recovery in any field. This reference book, produced by Schlumberger for oilfield technical professionals, illustrates state-of-the-art technologies with field examples from well testing applications to test design, operations, and interpretation.

Contents: Dynamic Properties of Reservoir Rock • Dynamic Properties of Produced Fluids • Pressure Sensors Technology • Well Testing Operations and Data Collection • Test Design Considerations • Reservoir Fluid Sampling • Static Pressure Applications • Transient Testing Interpretation Principles • Advanced Applications of Transient Testing • Testing Interpretation Software

Seismic InversionBy Mrinal K. Sen

Seismic Inversion is commonly used on post-stack and pre-stack seismic data for estimating rock properties used in reservoir characterization. While seismic migration is aimed at imaging the reflectors or the interfaces at their correct subsurface locations, seismic inversion attempts to estimate elastic and flow properties of the lay-ers bounded by these interfaces. Seismic data are sensitive essentially to seismic wave velocity and density contrasts in the subsurface rocks. Because of significant overlap in elastic properties among different rock types, mapping of these elastic

properties to rock types and estimating porosity are not trivial. Thus, seismic inversion is best done by combining data of all types such as seismic, well log, petrophysics, and production history.

The results of seismic inversion can be best interpreted by a team of geologists, geophysicists, and reservoir engineers. The goal of this primer is to explain the fundamental principles of seismic exploration, seismic wave propagation, and inversion in a language that is understandable by geoscientists and engineers alike so that the team is aware of the significance and limitations of the inversion results.

Mechanistic Modeling of Gas/Liquid Two-Phase Flow in PipesBy Ovadia Shoham

The objectives of this book are two-fold: to provide insight and understanding of two-phase flow phe-nomena and to develop analytical tools for either designing two-phase flow systems or conducting research in this area. The traditional approach for two-phase flow prediction has been the empirical approach, which was based on the development of an empirical correlation from experimental data. This book presents the recent approach, in which mathematical mechanistic models are developed, based on the physical phenomena, for the predic-

tion of two-phase flow behavior. The models can be verified and refined with limited experimental data. However, as these models incorporate the physical phenomena and the important flow variables, they can be extended to different operational conditions and can enable scaleup with significant confidence.

Contents: Fundamentals of Two-Phase Flow • Early Black Box Mode • Flow in Pipelines • Flow in Wellbores • Flow in Inclined Pipes • Two-Phase Flow Heat Transfer • Introduction to Transient Flow and Application Examples

Principles of Applied Reservoir Simulation, 3rd EditionBy John R. Fanchi

Completely revised and updated throughout, this new edition of a GPP industry standard has completely new sections on coalbed methane, CO2 sequestration (important for environmental concerns), CO2 Flood, more sophisticated pet-rophysical models for geoscientists, examples of subsidence, additional geomechanical calculations, and much more. What makes this book so differ-ent and valuable to the engineer is the accompany-ing software, used by reservoir engineers all over

the world every day. The new software, IFLO (replacing WINB4D, in previous editions), is a simulator that generates simulations of how the well can be tapped and feeds this to the engineer in dynamic 3D perspective.

This book and software helps the reservoir engineer do his or her job on a daily basis, better, more economically, and more efficiently. Without simulations, the reservoir engineer would not be able to do his or her job at all, and the technol-ogy available in this product is far superior to most companies internal simulation software.

Advanced Drilling Solutions: Lessons from the FSU, Vol. 1By Yakov Gelfgat, Mikahil Gelfgat, Yuri S. Lopatin

Volume one of this two-volume set covers histor-ical trends and two major aspects of drilling tech-nologies – downhole motors and oil well drilling optimization (KTW – Key Technological Wells drilling method). Unlike the U.S. and other countries, which use rotary drilling, the Russians use downhole hydraulic and electrical motors that power the bit downhole. Using a downhole

motor is more efficient, especially in hard formations. Advanced drilling studies have long been conducted in the FSU and are important in reduc-ing drilling costs in marginal reservoirs. This technology is beginning to gain popularity in the U.S. and other countries.

Data Mining: Applications in the Petroleum IndustryBy Georg Zangl and Josef Hannerer

The proliferation of data-gathering technologies and instrumentation has led to the acquisition of great volumes of data whose interpretation using analytical mathematical approaches or history matching with numerical simulators is often unsuccessful, incomplete, and invariably only partially satisfying. Data mining is an evolving discipline that uses a series of modern tools to extract hidden relationships and influences embedded in the data.

This book, dealing with data mining in the petroleum industry, is a major step toward the understanding of the exceptionally complex influences of the inher-ently chaotic geology, lithology, geochemistry, fluid phase behavior, multiphase flow, and other phenomena affecting petroleum exploration and production.

Natural Gas Engineering HandbookBy Boyun Guo and Ali Ghalambor

Many studies have concluded that the major source of energy for the global economy in the first half on the 21st century will be natural gas. With natural gas becoming more and more important, there is an increasing demand for information, yet less and less material is avail-able on this subject. The Natural Gas Engineering Handbook is the only book available that covers this subject in a comprehensive and practical way, including Processing, Pipeline, Production, and Reservoir Engineering.

This book covers the full scope of natural gas engineering, from gas reservoir engineering to gas production to gas processing. It adapts a computer-assisted approach, which is current practice in the industry and is severely lacking in other books on natural gas engineering.

Orders are processed as quickly as possible on receipt. To inquire about an order’s status, contact customer service at [email protected] with order date, method and date of payment.

Return Policy

Return of material neither damaged in shipment nor shipped in error requires prior authorization and is subject to a 30% restocking fee.

Shipping

Shipping times will vary, however, most domestic (U.S.) orders take 1-3 business days transit time while most international orders take 2-4 business days transit time. Transit time refers to the time it takes for a carrier, such as DHL, to deliver a package from our office to your location. An email notification will be sent when your order ships, including the carrier and tracking number for your package (when available).

Processing time from order reciept to shipment depends on the stock status of the items in your order. If all items in your order are in stock, your order will usually ship within 1-3 business days. If any items in your order are not in stock, your order will usually ship in 5-7 business days. The total time required to receive your order will be based on the processing time plus the transit time. Please note that from time to time a product may go on backorder, which may delay the processing of your order by several days or weeks.

Customs/Duties for Non-U.S. Orders

Orders may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. The customer placing the order is considered the importer of record and is responsible for any additional charges for customs clearance. SPE cannot predict or control these charges. Customs policies vary widely from country to country. Please contact your local customs office for more information prior to placing an order.


Booksellers

All orders require prepayment. Booksellers may take 20% off the list price on all items except books from other publishers, technical papers, software, OTC Proceedings, or career guidance aids. Booksellers interested in purchasing SPE titles should send a request to [email protected]. Booksellers interested in purchasing titles by other publishers should send a request to [email protected].

Standing Order ServiceKeep your library current. The SPE Standing Order Service is the best way to ensure receipt of all papers printed for SPE meetings. Each year, the society sponsors 15 to 20 meetings that publish Proceedings volumes. Standing order customers receive all Proceedings at SPE member prices. Also available on standing order are the SPE Monograph Series, SPE Reprint Series, and SPE Textbook Series. Please contact [email protected] to make purchases through our standing order service.
