This book is an introduction to oil and gas designed to be both
accessible to absolute beginners who know nothing about the
subject, and at the same time interesting to people who work in one
area (such as drilling or seismic exploration) and would like to
know about other areas (such as production offshore, or how oil and
gas were formed, or what can go wrong).It begins by discussing oil
and gas in the broader context of human society, and goes on to
examine what they consist of, how and where they were formed, how
we find them, how we drill for them and how we measure them. It
describes production onshore and offshore, and examines in detail
some instructive mishaps, including some that are well known, such
as Deepwater Horizon and Piper Alpha, and other lesser known
incidents. It looks at recent developments, such as shale oil, and
concludes with some speculation about the future. It includes many
references for readers who would like to read further. Mathematical
content is minimal.
