Synopsis

Natural Gas Engineering is a complete and up-to-date sourcebook for gas technology. It is the most comprehensive book you'll find today dealing with natural gas and its various stages, from occurrence in the earthen reservoir through production with or without condensate and crude oil. Featured in this book are such important topics as geology, rock properties, fluid properties, phase behavior, fluid flow in both pipes and porous material, and many other related subjects. Realizing the importance of keeping readers current on the latest developments in this continually changing field, the authors have included the results of certain significant studies such as "Superheat Limit Explosions with LNG and Water," "Why Oil Lines Heat and Gas Lines Cool," and "Gas Transfer Between Reservoirs." The senior author's more than 50 years of research and engineering practice in gas engineering, involving gas production and underground storage, offers you unequaled insight into real field applications of gas processing, as well as a look at the future of gas technology.
