Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides a comprehensive but concise reference resource for the vast field of petroleum technology. Built on the successful book "Practical Advances in Petroleum Processing" published in 2006, it has been extensively revised and expanded to include upstream technologies. The book is divided into four parts: The first part on petroleum characterization offers an in-depth review of the chemical composition and physical properties of petroleum, which determine the possible uses and the quality of the products. The second part provides a brief overview of petroleum geology and upstream practices. The third part exhaustively discusses established and emerging refining technologies from a practical perspective, while the final part describes the production of various refining products, including fuels and lubricants, as well as petrochemicals, such as olefins and polymers. It also covers process automation and real-time refinery-wide process optimization. Two key chapters provide an integrated view of petroleum technology, including environmental and safety issues.Written by international experts from academia, industry and research institutions, including integrated oil companies, catalyst suppliers, licensors, and consultants, it is an invaluable resource for researchers and graduate students as well as practitioners and professionals.

Book excerpt: The naturally occurring oil which is yellowish-black in color, found in the body of rocks beneath the surface of the earth is termed as petroleum. It is also known as crude oil. Petroleum science and technology is an area of study which deals with the production of hydrocarbons, crude oil and natural gas. Composition of petroleum consists of crude oil, and solid, liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons. The two main subdisciplines in petroleum engineering are oil and gas industry. They focus on maximizing the economic recovery of hydrocarbons from subsurface reservoirs. Oil and gas industry is broadly classified into upstream, midstream and downstream sectors. The exploration and production of petroleum fall under the umbrella of the upstream sector of the oil and gas industry. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of petroleum science and technology. The various advancements in this area of study are glanced at and their applications as well as ramifications are looked at in detail. For all those who are interested in this field, this book can prove to be an essential guide.
