This long-awaited volume, written specifically for petroleum workers, explores the fundamental concepts of rock mechanics along with various petroleum-related applications.

This conference was instituted to examine field activities in Microbial Enhancement of Oil Recovery.

This book integrates those critical geologic aspects of reservoir formation and occurrence with engineering aspects of reservoirs, and presents a comprehensive treatment of the geometry, porosity and permeability evolution, and producing characteristics of carbonate reservoirs.

This book is a comprehensive treatment of the elastic volumetric response of sandstones to variations in stress.

The use of microorganisms and their metabolic products to stimulate oil production is currently receiving renewed interest worldwide.

Written by foremost experts in the field, and formulated with attention to classroom use for advanced studies in reservoir characterization and processes, this book reviews and summarises state-of-the-art progress in the field of enhanced oil recovery (EOR).

An in-depth study of the fundamental aspects of enhanced oil recovery (EOR), this book brings together detailed analyses of proven techniques.

Petroleum Geology

In the modem language of reservoir engineering by reservoir description is understood the totality of basic local information concerning the reservoir rock and fluids which by various procedures are extrapolated over the entire reservoir.

Abnormal Formation Pressures

This book provides an introduction to recent developments in automated stratigraphic correlation of fossil data, using computer programs for ranking and scaling of stratigraphic events.

This is a detailed description of the history and chronology of global climate based on event-signal stratigraphy.

The last two decades have seen a spectacular renewal of interest in the study of Pleistocene vertebrates.

Quaternary Dating Methods

This is a comprehensive presentation of the theory and practice of time series modelling of environmental systems.

Engineering geology and hydrogeology are applied sciences which utilize other applied sciences such as geophysics to solve practical problems.

Methodological procedures of the theory of estimation of statistical parameters of time series and their application to hydrology and water engineering, particularly the sphere of reservoir-controlled runoffs, are dealt with in this volume.

Alluvial fans are among the most prominent landscape features in the American Southwest and throughout the semi-arid and arid regions of the world.

Research on reservoir sedimentation in recent years has been aimed mainly at water resources projects in developing countries.

The book describes the drainage basin as a system unit resulting from the interaction between runoff and topography - a lengthy process of evolution that occurs according to well-defined laws.

A comprehensive, integrated view of the behaviour of the tropical hydrological cycle under various ecological, geographical and climatological conditions.

Standing alone as the main authority on the subject, this handbook is the result of a multi-million dollar investigation into groundwater monitoring strategies at energy extraction sites.

Volcanic eruptions are generally viewed as agents of destruction, yet they provide the parent materials from which some of the most productive soils in the world are formed.

Despite the large number of papers and books published on soil organic matter (humus), our knowledge of the subject is still very limited, as is our knowledge of humic acid.

Cyclostratigraphy is concerned primarily with measuring geological time and the time units used in this approach are sedimentary cycles.

The present volume continues the philosophy of gathering contributions on diagenesis on behalf of those requiring such periodic literary surveys, namely, academics and practitioners (teachers, researchers, and oil and ore explorationists).

This book aims primarily at providing those involved in fundamental or applied research in the fields of geology, geomorphology and hydrology with a systematic overview of glacigenic sediments.

This book covers the more basic aspects of carbonate minerals and their interaction with aqueous solutions; modern marine carbonate formation and sediments; carbonate diagenesis (early marine, meteoric and burial); the global cycle of carbon and human intervention; and the role of sedimentary carbonates as indicators of stability and changes in the Earth's surface environment.

The present volume is an intellectual agglomeration covering a variety of topics in diagenesis.

This book provides a comprehensive and critical summary of clay mineral literature that relates to geology and geologic processes, making it useful both as a reference book for geologists and as a text for the specialist.

Diagenesis is a highly developed, interdisciplinary field of study.

Over the years, the field of sedimentology has become subdivided into various specialities.

Diagenesis is a highly developed, interdisciplinary field of study.

This book follows another by the same author, published in 1977, which the author considered as ``a first attempt to put some order in the house of clay petrology'.

Carbonate diagenesis is a subject of enormous complexity because of the basic chemical reactivity of carbonate minerals.
