Oil field chemicals are gaining increasing importance, as the resources of crude oil are decreasing. An increasing demand of more sophisticated methods in the exploitation of the natural resources emerges for this reason.
Oil Field Chemicals contains valuable information to assist the engineer in increasing the amount of crude oil that comes out of the ground and to enhance the quality of that product. It reviews the progress in the area of oil field chemicals and additives of the last decade from a chemical view. The material presented is a comprehensive compilation from the literature by screening critically approximately 20,000 references with attention focused on the specific actions of oil field chemicals.
The text is ordered according to applications, just in the way how the jobs are emerging in practice. It starts with drilling, goes to productions and ends with oil spill. Several chemicals are used in multiple disciplines, and to those separate chapters are devoted. Two index registers are available, an index of chemical substances and a general index.
Oil Field Chemicals is an essential resource for the drilling or reservoir engineer and chemical or mechanical engineer, on the desktop or at the rig!
