Working Guide to Petroleum and Natural Gas Production Engineering provides an introduction to key concepts and processes in oil and gas production engineering. It begins by describing correlation and procedures for predicting the physical properties of natural gas and oil. These include compressibility factor and phase behavior, field sampling process and laboratory measurements, and prediction of a vapor-liquid mixture. The book discusses the basic parameters of multiphase fluid flow, various flow regimes, and multiphase flow models. It explains the natural flow performance of oil, gas, and the mixture. The final chapter covers the design, use, function, operation, and maintenance of oil and gas production facilities; the design and construction of separators; and oil and gas separation and treatment systems. - Evaluate well inflow performance - Guide to properties of hydrocarbon mixtures - Evaluate Gas production and processing facilities

The Standard Handbook of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering was originally published as the Practical Petroleum Engineer's Handbook, by Zaba and Doherty, first published in 1937. The book went through five editions until Bill Lyons undertook the project in the 1980s and gave the book a new title and new direction, offering the oil and gas industry a complete overview of operations, from equipment and production to the economics of oil and gas. Written by over a dozen leading industry experts and academics, the Standard Handbook of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering provides the best, most comprehensive source of petroleum engineering information available. Now in an easy-to-use single volume format, this classic is one of the true "must haves" in any petroleum or natural gas engineer's library. *Completely revised to include all of the latest innovations in technology and practices in the oil and gas industry *Now in a handy single volume format *Written by over a dozen of the industry's most well-known and respected experts
