A conveniently arranged petroleum fluids reference book covering components, properties, and equations for the various fluids and gases. Contents: Introduction and scope Water-in-crude-oil emulsions Characterization, phase behavior, and field processing of crude oil Separation of gas, oil and water Dehydration and desalting of crude oil Crude sweetening and stabilization Pumps Measurement of crude oil Fire heaters Pipeline transportation Energy conservation Instrumentation and process control Pressure relief and flaring Case histories Appendices.
Since the first edition, much data has been developed and refined contributing to a substantially deeper knowledge of reservoir fluids, their analysis, properties, the chemical nature of petroleum, and gas- liquid equilibria. This new edition is abundantly justified.
I am using the second edition to help with my understanding of viscosity, permeability, compressibility, PV diagrams and other calculations.
The book is titled "An introduction". However, the detail in the book is at an intermediate level. You need to have at least some basic scientific and mathematical knowledge to make the best of this book. As an example, it is clearly a level above Dr Hyne's Nontechnical Guide to Petroleum Geology.
The book does not go into great background detail and is more focused on calculations and examples of how they are derived and applied. If this is what you want this book for (as it was for me), it does a great job.
It has an exemplary index that is very useful in finding exactly what you are looking for.
