Petroleum Geoscience

Petroleum Geoscience, 2nd Edition, introduces the application of geology and geophysics to the exploration for and production of oil and gas.

The textbook is structured around the sequential and cyclical phases of exploration, appraisal, development, and production. Chapters addressing each of these stages include case histories drawn from the authors' professional experience.

Intended for final-year undergraduates, earth sciences postgraduates, and industry technical personnel, the volume draws on examples from petroleum systems around the world that range in age from the late Pre-Cambrian to the Pliocene.
