| Summary: |
'Practical Onshore Gas Field Engineering' delivers the necessary framework to help engineers understand the needs of the reservoir, including sections on early transmission and during the life of the well. Written from a reservoir perspective, this reference includes methods and equipment from gas reservoirs, covering the gathering stage at the gas facility for transportation and processing. Loaded with real-world case studies and examples, it offers a variety of different types of gas fields that demonstrate how surface systems can work through each scenario. |
