Summary
Summary
This book documents recent developments and environmental issues affecting the oil industry and looks at significant advances in the application of chemicals in oil production. Areas covered include drilling, stimulation, production, transportation and refining. Many of these developments have resulted from environmental pressures which have demanded changes both in operating procedures and in the final product produced, as well as from collapsed oil prices - the industry is no longer as profitable as it once was. Consequently a portion of the book is devoted to an analysis of recent market change and suggests possible future trends.
