This is the sixth contribution to the Computer Methods in the
Geosciences series and it continues the tradition of being
practical, germaine, and easy to read. Michael Hohn in his
presentation, Geostatistics and Petroleum Geology, nicely
compliments the other books in the series and brings to the readers
some new techniques by which to analyze their data. New approaches
always result in new ideas or enhancement of old ones. The French
School of Geostatistiques (Fontainebleau, France) was founded and
developed by Georges Matheron in response to problems in mining
explo ration and exploitation. This approach has been used
successfully in that industry since the mid-1960s, but only
recently applied to similar problems in petroleum. Likewise, these
applications have been successful in this applied field as well and
here Hohn gives examples. Standard subjects of the field of
geostatistics are explored and discussed-the semivariogram,
kriging, cokriging, nonlinear and parametric estimation, and
conditional simulation. These may be unrecognizable terms to the
readers now, but upon completion of reading the book, they will be
fimiliar ones. Each subject is discussed in detail with appropriate
and pertinent case studies, taken from the author's own research or
from the literature. The author notes the book is for working
geologists in the petroleum industry."
