Description
“This book is fast becoming the standard text in its field,” wrote a reviewer in the Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology soon after the first appearance of Dake’s book. This prediction quickly came true: it has become the standard text and has been reprinted many times. The author’saim – to provide students and teachers with a coherent account of the basic physics of reservoir engineering – has been most successfully achieved. No prior knowledge of reservoir engineering is necessary. The material is dealt with in a concise, unified and applied manner, and only the simplest and most straightforward mathematical techniques are used. This low-priced paperback edition will continue to be an invaluable teaching aid for years to come.
