Petroleum Refining for the Non-technical Person
Sets forth the many technical procedures involved in refining. Included are a new chapter on simple and complex refineries, and a revised chapter on gasoline blending, including current information on alcohol blending components.
Petroleum Refining in Nontechnical Language
For 45 years, William Leffler's Petroleum Refining in Nontechnical Language has been the go-to best seller for anyone needing to know the fundamentals of refining. Each chapter was carefully written in nontechnical language to give the reader a basic understanding of the refining industry.
Oil & Gas Pipelines in Nontechnical Language
This text explains the how's and why's of the pipeline industry. It was written for those not directly involved in pipeline operations - legal, supply, accounting, finance, and human resource specialists, and people who service and sell equipment to pipeline companies. But even engineers and expert pipeliners can gain insights from the book's depth and broad perspective.
Oil and Gas Production in Nontechnical Language
Provides an overview of the entire petroleum production function; explains the origins of oil and gas and reservoir dynamics; deciphers the mysteries of production ownership and land rights; and identifies the types of production companies and staff positions, and how they interact. --From publisher description.
Natural Gas Liquids
Written in accessible language, Natural Gas Liquids: A Nontechnical Guide is a comprehensive overview of NGLs from production in the oil patch to consumption in the fuels and petrochemicals industries. Author William Leffler covers everything from gas plants, logistics, storage, refinery operations, and the chemistry necessary to have a full understanding of the whole value chain. With chapter highlights and exercises, and many photos, illustrations and graphs, this is the perfect resource for anyone seeking a better understanding of the world of natural gas liquids.
Refining Processes Handbook
Besides covering topics like catalytic cracking, hydrocracking, and alkylation, this volume has chapters on waste water treatment and the economics of managing or commissioning the design of a petroleum refinery. Found only in this volume is material on operating a jointly owned and operated refinery. (Over the last decade, the ownership of many refineries has shifted to small companies, from the large, integrated companies. Because of this shift, many refineries are now jointly owned and operated.) Filled with handy process flow diagrams, this volume is the only reference that a chemical engineer or process manager in a petroleum refinery needs for answers to everyday process and operations questions. * Covers the technologies and operations of petroleum refineries * Provides material on operating a jointly owned and operated refinery * Gives readers a comprehensive introduction to petroleum refining, as well as a full reference to engineers in the field
Petrochemicals Chart
"This laminated chart provides a quick glance reference of petrochemicals starting with Raw Materials (coal, natural gas, and oil) in the center of the chart then branching out into the Building Blocks, Derivatives, and End Uses. Each petrochemical is listed at the top of the chart in alphabetical order with map-like guides to help you easily trace a certain petrochemical."--publisher description.
Handbook of Petroleum Refining
Petroleum refining involves refining crude petroleum as well as producing raw materials for the petrochemical industry. This book covers current refinery processes and process-types that are likely to come on-stream during the next three to five decades. The book includes (1) comparisons of conventional feedstocks with heavy oil, tar sand bitumen, and bio-feedstocks; (2) properties and refinability of the various feedstocks; (3) thermal processes versus hydroprocesses; and (4) the influence of refining on the environment.
Oil & Gas Production in Nontechnical Language
This updated second edition of Oil & Gas Production in Nontechnical Language is an excellent introduction for anyone from petroleum engineers and geologists new to their careers to financial, marketing, legal, and other professionals and their staffs interested in the industry. E&P service company personnel will find it particularly beneficial in understanding the roles played by their clients. Not only does it cover production fundamentals, but it backs up to give the necessary upstream background--geology, origins of oil and gas, and ownership and land rights--as well as surface operations and even production company strategy development.
