Description

Petroleum engineers search through endless sources to understand oil and gas chemicals, identify root cause of the
problems, and discover solutions while operations are becoming more unconventional and driving toward more sustainable
practice. Oil and Gas Chemistry Management Series brings an all-inclusive suite of tools to cover all the sectors of oil and
gas chemistry-related issues and chemical solutions from drilling and completion, to production, surface processing, and
storage. The fourth reference in the series, Surface Process, Transportation, and Storage delivers the critical basics while also
covering latest research developments and practical solutions. Organized by the type of challenges, this volume facilitates
engineers to fully understand underlying theories, practical solutions, and keys for successful applications. Basics include
produced fluids treating, foam control, pipeline drag reduction, and crude oil and natural gas storage, while more advanced
topics cover CO2 recovery, shipment, storage, and utilization. Supported by a list of contributing experts from both
academia and industry, this volume brings a necessary reference to bridge petroleum chemistry operations from theory
into more cost-effective and sustainable practical applications.

Key features

  • Offers full range of oil field chemistry issues and more environmentally friendly alternatives, including chapters focused on methods to treat produced water for recycle, reuse, and disposal
  • Gain effective control on problems and mitigation strategies from industry list of experts and contributors
  • Delivers both up to date research developments and practical applications, bridging between theory and practice
