Product Information

The practical aspects of analyzing production performance has changed due to the increased exploitation efforts in unconventional reservoirs. Analysis of Oil and Gas Production Performance expands on these developing well-evaluation procedures and includes the latest best practices for new areas of shale and tight formation reservoirs. Built on the core fundamentals of curve analysis found in Poston and Poe's book, Analysis of Production Decline Curves, this new book is intended for engineers, geologists, and anyone working in the oil and gas industry with an interest in production forecasting of conventional and unconventional resources for evaluation and development. This book is intended for engineers, geologists, and anyone working in the oil and gas industry with an interest in production forecasting of conventional and unconventional resources for evaluation and development. The majority of the book is concerned with commonly observed oilfield practice and practical solutions to the problems encountered therein. Each chapter begins with a workflow diagram that, in essence, provides the reader with the learning objectives of the chapter. A primary focus of the book is to instill each reader with the competency to solve typical operational problems with minimal exposure to the complexity of the underlying mathematics and equations. The basics and utility of each equation are discussed; however, the focus is on the practical application of the underlying technology to real-life problems. There are numerous illustrations and solutions to typical field problems included for the reader.
