Editorial Review: Product Description: This nontechnical treatment is a great introduction to oil and gas production for anyone from beginning petroleum engineering and geology students to accountants, salespersons, and other professionals interested in the industry. Co-authored by Martin Raymond, a veteran production manager, and William Leffler, one of the top petroleum nontechnical writers, it is an easy-to-read reference for those who deal with petroleum industry personnel and production issues in their jobs, but need a quick overview of the technical and business issues. Complete with helpful charts and diagrams, this book covers everything from production equipment and processes to theory, business operations, and strategies. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good Primer For Non-Industry Stakeholders...good primer for non-industry stakeholders (e.g., bankers, private equity investors, lawyers, etc.)... ...author needs to tighten-up grammar/sentence structure and quit bashing lawyers, financiers, non-engineers, imho, since this is the target audience... Rating:  - Layman's escortThis is a concise, expert explanation of how oil and gas are discovered and extracted today. Petroscience is a complicated business, but this book peers into the art and science of the industry and provides laymen with a basic understanding of all the steps involved in finding hydrocarbons and in getting them to market. Highly recommended! Rating: - Great OverviewIf a picture is worth a thousand words this book is more robust than advertised. The myriad of pictures, drawings, charts, and graphs bring the rather technical topic of oil and gas production to life. The book gives a valuable overview of the industry, and even though I am in a related industry (oil and gas pipelines) it provided me with new information in a conscise and easy to read format. My hat is off to the authors for a fine job. Browse for similar items by category:
