Basic Petroleum Geology

Basic Petroleum Geology presents the fundamentals of geology in terms of environments of sedimentary deposition, petroleum occurrence, exploration, and recovery. The book provides an integrated overview of petroleum geology concepts and vocabulary in clear, easy-to-understand language.

Petroleum exploration and petroleum production make use of many of the same geological parameters. It is essential that geologists, geophysicists, and engineers share a common understanding of the processes in the geologic record. It is just as important that petroleum managers, landmen, and technicians, as well as attorneys, financiers, and other nontechnical professionals be conversant with the terminology and fundamental principles of petroleum occurrence, exploration, and production. Basic Petroleum Geology addresses this need by providing an overview of earth structure, plate tectonics, geologic time, historical geology, and minerals and rocks. The book has several excellent chapters on weathering, erosion, and deposition in marine, fluvial, lacustrine, desert, and glacial environments, in the context of petroleum geology.

A comprehensive chapter on structural geology demonstrates how to identify structural features and petroleum traps. It includes geometric studies and three-dimensional structural representations. Another chapter examines post-depositional processes, including diagenesis, fracturing, sediment compaction, and subsurface water, which affect the distribution and migration of petroleum.

Finally, the basics of rock properties, hydrocarbon fluids, fluid flow, and recovery mechanisms relate the geologic environment to the process of hydrocarbon production.

The clarity and completeness of the text, the numerous illustrations, and the substantial index make Basic Petroleum Geology a valuable reference for geology students and petroleum professionals who require a basic understanding of geological concepts.

Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them too? This could be a issue with my browser because I've had this happen
