Reservoir engineering handbook

Now in its second edition, this publication provides a comprehensive and up-to-date reference tool for the reservoir engineer or reservoir engineering student. It covers reservoir fluid behaviour and properties, including laboratory analysis and reservoir fluid flow. It provides a guide to predicting oil reservoir performance through analysis of oil recovery mechanisms and performance calculations, and explains the fundamentals of reservoir engineering and their practical application through a comprehensive field study. Two new chapters have been added to this second edition, covering the principles of water flooding and vapour-liquid phase equilibria.
