Ganat T.A.-A.O. Technical Guidance for Petroleum Exploration and Production Plans

Springer, 2020. — 101 p. — ISBN: 978-3-030-45250-6.This book presents detailed explanations of how to formulate field development plans for oil and gas discovery. The data and case studies provided here, obtained from the authors’ field experience in the oil and gas industry around the globe, offer a real-world context for the theories and procedures discussed. The book covers all aspects of field development plan processes, from reserve estimations to economic analyses. It shows readers in both the oil and gas industry and in academia how to prepare field development plans in a straightforward way, and with substantially less uncertainty.
Provides technical guidance, concepts, and approaches to preparing field development plans for the oil and gas industry.
Utilizes numerous case studies and real-world data to contextualize the theories discussed.
A valuable asset for engineers, academics, and advanced students alike.
The chapters of this book were scribed in a simple way to serve as a quick reference and guidance based on the discovery type and the amount of reservoir rock and fluid data available. Moreover, there is a strong and logical connection between all the chapters, where every chapter was written and in a structured way to achieve the milestone of this book. The arrangement of the chapters; lead to the full understanding of the field development plan process starting from hydrocarbon exploration through to economic analysis.
The book includes, real case studies were presented to demonstrate the stages covered in this book, facilitating petroleum/reservoir engineers to grasp the process of evaluation of the whole project stages. Deepwater projects for oil and gas prospects were presented and show in details the step by step evaluation process.
