Hydrocarbon Potential in Southeastern United States: A Review (SpringerBriefs in Earth Sciences)

Springer, 2018

With respect to the vital work of maintaining and increasing much needed petroleum reserves within the continental United States, the Southeast is intriguing because it has been under-explored for many years at the expense of far more promising areas such as the Gulf Coast. While critics may contend that the overall geology of the Southeastern...

The Art and Science of Seismic Interpretation (SpringerBriefs in Earth Sciences)

Springer, 2019

Seismic data is one of the fundamental tools used to interpret subsurface geology with application to understanding of earth processes, tectonic evolution, and energy exploration in particular. This book is written for technical specialists who are new to seismic geophysics. It introduces the seismic data set including how the data...

Ionic Liquids in Flow Assurance (SpringerBriefs in Petroleum Geoscience & Engineering)

Springer, 2020

This book focuses on the application of ionic liquids in flow assurance in the oil and gas industry. It discusses their physiochemical properties, and considers the role of ionic liquids as gas hydrate inhibitors in offshore pipelines.

Gas hydrate occurrence can pose a major threat to pipeline integrity. Therefore, different...

CO2 Injection in the Network of Carbonate Fractures (Petroleum Engineering)

Springer, 2020

This book presents guidelines for the design, operation and monitoring of CO2 injection in fractured carbonates, with low permeability in the rock matrix, for geological storage in permanent trapping.

CO2 migration is dominated by fractures in formations where the hydrodynamic and geochemical effects induced by the...

Managing the Risks of Payments Systems

John Wiley & Sons, 2002

Identify and manage payment risk

The risks of payment systems have dramatically evolved…new laws, new technologies, new threats combined with the chronic problems of error, fraud, and security. Treasury and banking executives and their counsel ignore these risks at their peril. "We didn’t know" is no excuse.

Career Opportunities in the Energy Industry

Ferguson, 2008

The energy industry and its career opportunities are certainly nothing new. Excavations in Britain suggest coal was mined and used during the Stone Age. Natural gas was produced and transported through bamboo pipelines over 2,500 years ago in China. Petroleum was used by the Babylonians in making asphalt for building their...
