Asphaltenes and Asphalts, 1

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 1994-09-08
  • -
  • Publisher: Elsevier

This is the first volume of a two-volume set of critical reviews of many aspects of both asphaltenes and asphalts and their interrelationship. Asphaltene is invariably present in asphalt or bitumen and other fossil fuel-derived liquids such as coal tar, coal liquefaction products, pyrolyzed shale oil from oil shales, source rock extracts and numerous naturally occurring bituminous substances. The latter include asphaltites, asphaltoids, waxes, and carbonaceous deposits containing a composition of petroleum and coal.The contents cover not only the basic science of asphaltene but also deal with the applications and technology such as upstreams (production, recovery) and down streams (refining,...

  • Publisher: Elsevier

Written by foremost experts in the field, and formulated with attention to classroom use for advanced studies in reservoir characterization and processes, this book reviews and summarises state-of-the-art progress in the field of enhanced oil recovery (EOR). All of the available techniques: alkaline flooding; surfactant flooding; carbon dioxide flooding; steam flooding; in-situ combustion; gas injection; miscible flooding; microbial recovery; and polymer flooding are discussed and compared. Together with Volume I, it presents a complete text on enhanced recovery technology and, hence, is an almost indispensible reference text.This second volume compliments the first by presenting as complete...

  • Publisher: CRC Press

This volume provides a comprehensive review that consolidates all of the pertinent information available. Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) involves many scientific disciplines, many different approaches, and many different countries. This book supplies the information needed for continued development of MEO methods and points out areas where information is lacking and where more research is needed. This easy-to-use resource focuses on the three types of MEOR processes which can be utilized to recover oil from reservoirs. Successful MEOR involves contributions from petroleum, chemical, genetic, environmental, geotechnical, and bioengineering. Also, geology, chemistry, and microbiology play a major role as well. This critical review book includes a comprehensive reference list and opens the lines of communication among the various fields of study. This work will also encourage the exchange of ideas and interaction necessary for success in this quickly developing technology. Scientists, researchers, and practitioners will find this text to be interesting, informative, and indispensable.consolidatesR

Hydrocarbon Migration Systems Analysis

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 1993-01-27
  • -
  • Publisher: Elsevier

The main intention of this book is to provide geoscientists interested or working in hydrocarbon exploration with a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of hydrocarbon migration systems in sedimentary basins and to give guidelines for its application in basin evaluation. For this purpose, the book fully integrates hydrogeologic and hydrodynamic aspects of the evolution of sedimentary basins with petroleum geologic aspects. It will be of interest to petroleum geologists, hydrogeologists, geochemists and reservoir geologists.

Microbial Enhancement of Oil Recovery - Recent Advances

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 1993-07-23
  • -
  • Publisher: Elsevier

This volume is concerned with many aspects of petroleum microbiology and biochemistry, all with strong commercial applications. Worldwide research on the major topic, MEOR (Microbially Enhanced Oil Recovery) is comprehensively covered under experimental work, field applications and modeling. The challenge of formulating a complete in situ MEOR system (microorganisms, nutrient package, and other amendments) is explored together with the future needs in the design and execution of this new biotechnology.

Thermal Properties and Temperature-Related Behavior of Rock/Fluid Systems

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 1992-03-02
  • -
  • Publisher: Elsevier

This book brings together for the first time the results of research on the thermal properties and temperature-related behavior of rocks with their contained fluids, under subsurface environmental conditions. These data are of increasing importance with increased application of underground processes involving high temperature and, in some cases, low temperature environments. Some of the important processes are described in which thermal data are needed. Chapters deal with thermal properties of rocks, including heat capacities, thermal conductivities and thermal diffusivities under conditions simulating subsurface environments. Discussion about the difficulty in measuring thermal properties o...

Studies in Abnormal Pressures

  • Published: 1994-02-01

  • Publisher: Elsevier

When Fertl's first book, Abnormal Formation Pressures, was published by Elsevier in 1976, the topic was relatively new in book form. In the years that followed, his book became the standard work for petroleum engineers and drillers. The list of major petroleum provinces with abnormally high pore pressures has grown steadily over the years, and with it has grown our knowledge and experience. There have also been technological advances. A new book was required, but no longer could the topic be covered adequately by one person. The problems of abnormally high formation pressures encountered in the subsurface while drilling for petroleum are very diverse, involving geologists, geophysicists, res...
