This book looks at the developing market for oilfield chemicals, estimated to be worth around ???100 million a year in the North Sea alone, and ten times this elsewhere. It examines the increasing need for the combined efforts of chemists and petroleum engineers, major oil producers and service companies, to exploit oil reserves more effectively, with particular reference to environmental pressures. Recent Advances in Oilfield Chemistry addresses developments in the technology of oil well drilling, crude oil extraction and transportation to the refinery. It makes particular reference to increasing environmental pressures and the need to locate and access deeper oil reserves in hostile environments. Graduates in chemical engineering, environmental and industrial chemistry, and workers in the industry itself, will find Recent Advances in Oilfield Chemistry full of useful, topical information, fostering a broader understanding of the issues affecting oil exploration and exploitation today.
