This book presents dynamic response, vibration characteristics, and nonlinear behavior of complex oil and gas well string by using a combination of theoretical methods, numerical simulation, and experimental analysis. It lays both theoretical and experimental foundation for the design of oil and gas well string parameters. The theoretical methods involved mainly include Hamilton's principle, finite element method, and energy method, while experimental methods involved include similarity principle, vibration testing method, and modal analysis method. It is a valuable reference for both...

The book is intended for practicing engineers in the oil industry, researchers, and graduate students interested in designing and simulating offshore hydrocarbon production systems. It approaches offshore oil production systems from an integrated perspective that combines the modeling of thermophysical properties of reservoir fluids and their flow as a multiphase mixture in wellbores, flow lines, and risers.

The first part of the book presents an internally consistent method to compute the critical parameters and acentric factor of Single Carbon Number (SCN) fractions of petroleum...

This book identifies scenarios for changes in transmission infrastructure, contracting, consumption patterns and fossil fuel financing policies, considering climate goals and the consequences of the conflict in Ukraine. 

The invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation has fundamentally changed the geopolitical situation, approaches to energy security issues, the EU’s energy (in)dependence and the implementation of previously outlined climate policies, including the planned gradual withdrawal from fossil fuels.

This book presents the geopolitical...

This second edition is updated with new chapters on machine learning approaches, data-driven modelling techniques, and neural networks.

The book delves into machine learning approaches, including evolutionary algorithms, swarm...

This informative book offers a comprehensive exploration of critical reservoir parameters, including quantification techniques and interpretations for evaluating these reservoirs. Readers will also gain insight into the fundamental principles of simulating gas production from coal and shale reservoirs, as well as the key input parameters for building the best-fit reservoir model. Additionally, the book explores various aspects of storing captured CO2 in these reservoirs and their potential role in preventing global temperature increases beyond pre-industrial levels.

Energy from...
