It is a pleasure to be asked to write the foreword to this
interesting new book. When Professor Bedrikovetsky first accepted
my invitation to spend an extended sabbatical period in the
Department of Mineral Resources Engineering at Imperial College of
Science, Technology and Medicine, I hoped it would be a period of
fruitful collaboration. This book, a short course and a variety of
technical papers are tangible evidence of a successful stay in the
UK. I am also pleased that Professor Bedrikovetsky acted on my
suggestion to publish this book with Kluwer as part of the
petroleum publications for which I am Series Editor. The book
derives much of its origin from the unpublished Doctor of Science
thesis which Professor Bedrikovetsky prepared in Russian while at
the Gubkin Institute. The original DSc contained a number of
discrete publications unified by an analytical mathematics approach
to fluid flow in petroleum reservoirs. During his sabbatical stay
at Imperial College, Professor Bedrikovetsky has refined and
extended many of the chapters and has discussed each one with
internationally recognised experts in the field. He received great
encouragement and editorial advice from Dr Gren Rowan, who
pioneered analytical methods in reservoir modelling at BP for many
years.
