Product Description: This book explores environmental and human risk problems caused by contamination, from the perspective of real world applications with quantitative procedures. It includes risk methods for environmental problems where data are sparse or fuzzy, and incorporates political, social and economic considerations in determining directions of remediation solutions for environmental contaminant problems...read more

Product Description: A quantitative and coherent resource for petroleum engineering professionals, this investigation of the problems concerned with oil and gas flow along subsurface faults focuses on the impact of reservoir leakage and subsurface pressure on production methodologies, exploration, and finance...read more

Product Description: How modern developments in the procedures and methods of basin analysis have enhanced its utility in hydorcarbon exploration is addressed in this study.

Product Description: Concerned with hydrocarbon production economics, this two-volume set dissects the old adage in the oil industry that exploration for hydrocarbons loses money while production of hydrocarbons makes money. Issues explored include how risk should be managed and how a given situation can be analyzed so that the chances of obtaining the desired level of profit can be maximized...read more

Product Description: Salt and Sediment Dynamics presents a thorough treatment of salt and sediment interactions and the implications of such interactions for sub-salt exploration. The book emphasizes and utilizes recent discoveries on many aspects of salt and sediment interactions, provides the theoretical framework for interpreting the increasing amount of available data on salt and sediments, and develops a self-consistent dynamical evolution model of salt structures and their interaction with surrounding sediments...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: There has long been interest in the flow of fluids through permeable aqui­ fers. Stratigraphic trapping of oil and gas by permeability changes in an aquifer and the amounts of hydrocarbons so trapped are major concerns to the oil industry...read more
