<br/><br/> "This fourth edition of Elements of Petroleum Geology includes updates and revisions to reflect changes in the field since the publication of the third edition. This book is a useful primer for geophysicists, geologists, and petroleum engineers in the oil industry who wish to expand their knowledge beyond their specialized area. It is also an excellent introductory text for a university course in petroleum geoscience. The fourth edition includes new case studies on nonconventional exploration from the tight oil and shale gas exploration sector, as well as coverage of the impacts of petroleum geology on the environment. Sections on shale reservoirs, flow units and containers, IOR and EOR, giant petroleum provinces, halo reservoirs, and resource estimation methods have also been updated and expanded"--Page 4 of cover.
