Published and Forthcoming Titles


 
Supercharge, Invasion, and Mudcake Growth in Downhole Applications
By Tao Lu, Xiaofei Qin, Yongren Feng, Yanmin Zhou and Wilson Chin
Copyright: 2021   |   Status: Published   |   Hardcover
 
This book reviews strongly related subjects in wellbore pressure transient analysis for overbalanced and underbalanced drilling, static and dynamic filtration, single and multiphase flow, transient mudcake buildup and stuck-pipe assessment, describes existing models, and develops new fluid flow algorithms useful in modeling these flow effects.




 
Reservoir Simulation and Well Interference
Parent-Child, Multilateral Well
and Fracture Interactions

By Wilson C. Chin and Xiaoying Zhuang
Copyright: 2020   |   Status: Published   |   Hardcover
 
Co-written by a world-renowned petroleum engineer, this breakthrough new volume teaches engineers how to configure, place and produce horizontal and multilateral wells in geologically complicated reservoirs, select optimal well spacings and fracture separations, and how to manage factors influencing well productivity using proven cost-effective and user-friendly simulation methods.


 
Formation Testing: Supercharge, Pressure Testing and Contamination Models
By Wilson C. Chin
Copyright: 2019   |   Status: Published   |   Hardcover
 
This new volume, the third in Wiley-Scrivener's series on formation testing, reviews pressure transient interpretation and contamination analysis methods, providing numerous practical discussions and examples with rigorous formulations solved through exact, closed form, analytical solutions.


 
Reservoir Engineering in Modern Oilfields
Vertical, Deviated, Horizontal and Multilateral Well Systems
By Wilson C. Chin
Copyright: 2016   |   Status: Published   |   Hardcover
 
The first in a series of handbooks that detail the state-of-the-art for petroleum engineering, this must-have volume shows the engineer how to create complicated geologies and arbitrary well systems on a computer screen and perform steady or transient reservoir simulations with integrated three-dimensional color graphics results in seconds, using the rigorous and cutting-edge processes detailed herein using common sense and easy-to-understand language.
