Know About the Book 'Petroleum Engineering Drilling and Well Completion By Carl Gatlin'
Petroleum engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with the actions involved in producing hydrocarbons, which can be crude oil or natural gas. Exploration and production are considered to be part of the oil and gas industry's upstream segment. The oil and gas industry's two primary subsurface disciplines are exploration, which is carried out by earth scientists, and petroleum engineering, which focuses on optimising the economic recovery of hydrocarbons from subterranean reserves.
Petroleum geology and geophysics are concerned with providing a static description of the hydrocarbon reservoir rock, whereas petroleum engineering is concerned with estimating the recoverable volume of this resource based on a thorough understanding of the physical behaviour of oil, water, and gas within porous rock under extreme pressure.
