Böcker av William (Technical Advisor (Retired) Chevron Lyons

Covers properties of hydrocarbon mixtures, flow natural flow of fluids, natural flow performance, artificial lift methods and corrosion and scaling. This book provides engineers with a basis for understanding important concepts such a flow phenomena, hydrate formation, pressure (surge) waves, or high viscosity liquid flow failure.

Offers fundamental, basic knowledge of the intricacies of drilling fluid, drilled solids management, drill bits, drill string design, directional drilling, cementing, casing, hydraulic optimization, and a discussion of predominant problems such as stuck pipe and lost circulation.

Designed for technical professionals who need a 'quick look up' reference for solving day-to-day engineering, management, and optimization problems, this working guide provides those new to reservoir engineering a starting point for understanding the basics and going on to formulate effective workflow solutions.
