Series: Advances in Petroleum Engineering

Series Editor: Wilson C. Chin

Scope: "Advances in Petroleum Engineering" covers more advanced topics in petroleum engineering, from an upstream perspective. From reservoir engineering, modeling, logging, and testing, to drilling and production and economics, each volume is a must-have for any petroleum engineer working in the field or student, alike.

About the Series Editor:
Wilson Chin earned his PhD from M.I.T. and his M.Sc. from Caltech. He has authored over twenty books with Wiley-Scrivener and other major scientific publishers, has more than four dozen domestic and international patents to his credit, and has published over one hundred journal articles, in the areas of reservoir engineering, formation testing, well logging, Measurement While Drilling, and drilling and cementing rheology.
