Offshore Engineering and Production - Third Edition
Year: 2011 Language: English Author: Angus Mather Publisher: Witherby Publishing Group Edition: Third ISBN: 9781905331987 Format: PDF Quality: OCR with errors Pages count: 328 Description: Offshore engineering encompasses a considerable number of very specialised and often completely unrelated disciplines. They can be categorised into three core activities: construction, production and reservoir engineering. This book has been written not as a definitive manual, but to provide the reader with a basic explanation of them. It is hoped that the material contained within this publication will provide the new recruit to the industry with a basic appreciation of what is a relatively complex subject, while at the same time providing the more experienced individual with a fuller appreciation of activities outside of their own particular speciality. The decision on what topics should be included and the depth to which they should be discussed are based largely on my personal experience. While frequent references are made to the oil and gas industries of the North Sea, the bulk of the text is of a more general nature and so is applicable to offshore engineering on a worldwide basis. Units of measurement are quoted in both imperial and metric, with preference being given to the unit most frequently associated with a particular discipline.
