Editions Technip books
Richly illustrated with outstanding maps, this book is the first of its kind to address all major issues related to the oceans as well as questions dealing with delimitation of maritime boundaries in territorial seas and areas under juridiction (exclusive economic zones, protected fishing zones, protected ecological zones and continental shelves). It analyzes maritime conflicts or disputes such as those in the Western Pacific, in the South China
The Progressing Cavity Pump (PCP), invented by René Moineau, is a great innovation for the whole industry, particularly in petroleum production. Since 1980, Progressing Cavity Pumps have been widely used in the production of heavy oil well containing sand and gas.
Surface Production Operations: Facility Piping and Pipeline Systems, Volume III is a hands-on manual for applying mechanical and physical principles to all phases of facility piping and pipeline system design, construction, and operation. For over twenty years this now classic series has taken the guesswork out of the design, selection, specification, installation, operation, testing, and trouble-shooting of surface production equipment.
Knowledge Driven Solutions for Building and Managing Subsurface 3D Geological Models. Over the last two decades, earth modeling has become a major investigative tool for evaluating the potential of hydrocarbon reservoirs. Earth modelling must now face new challenges since petroleum exploration no longer consists in only investigating newly identified resources, but also in re-evaluating the potential of previously investigated reservoirs in the light of new prospecting
From Conventional to Unconventional Hydrocarbon Systems. Understanding the origin and fate of hydrocarbons in the subsurface has been the major endeavor of organic geochemists during the second half of the XXth century. They succeeded to the point where the deciphered interplaying set of elements and processes paved the way to the revolutionary concept of petroleum system, a unifying paradigm which plays an important role in decision making associated with oil and gas explora
Following the success of the Drilling Data Handbook, Editions Technip has designed this book to cover the well logging principles and its applications. This well logging handbook first edition starts with a summary on geology and petrophysics focusing mainly on its applications. The wide range of logging measurements and applications is covered through eleven sections, each of them organized into four chapters: 1 - the basic physical principles of each measurement; 2 - the different WL and LW
The first edition of the Drilling Data Handbook was published in 1950. Over the more than six following decades the book has been constantly improved, adding lots of new technologies and equipment over the course of its eight updated editions. But its key principle is to remain familiar and friendly to users. Its philosophy has always been to give quick access to the basic information or calculations for the office or field operations. That is why our primary goal is to select and highlight t
The present book completes the first volume on the "Essentials of Reservoir Engineering". Chapters 1 to 6 are complementary to the material discussed in the first volume. Chapters 7 and 8 cover secondary and tertiary recovery methods. Chapter 9 introduces well testing, and chapter 10 gives elements of log interpretation. Chapter 11 gives techniques used to predict reservoir performances in particular conditions. Chapter 12 covers the unconventional oil reservoir issues that become of prime im
This dictionary which contains over 8,000 terms is a comprehensive compilation of the words or expressions used in drilling, well logging, and in the equipment and completion of boreholes, both onshore and offshore. It also includes tradenames of tools that tend to be used as commons nouns. Technical definitions are also added for important terms and concepts that need to be understood. Appendixes also give additional tables and figures.
