Summary
Summary
This volume collects 19 of the 35 papers presented at the September 1998 conference that brought together petroleum geologists and drilling engineers to share state-of-the-art research on rock physics, overpressure mechanisms, poor pressure and fracture gradient prediction, and pressure management while drilling. Topics include the primary controls
