Reservoir engineering is where geology, fluid behavior, production history, and engineering judgment come together to answer the questions that drive field-development decisions: How much hydrocarbon is in place? How will the reservoir perform? And how much can realistically be recovered?Applied Petroleum Reservoir Engineering Handbook builds a practical foundation for answering those questions from the rock and fluid scale all the way to full-field development. Designed for engineering students, early-career petroleum professionals, and practicing engineers who need a rigorous refresher, this handbook connects theory directly to real reservoir-engineering workflows. Inside, you'll learn how to: Evaluate porosity, permeability, saturation, wettability, and capillary pressureUnderstand oil, gas, and gas-condensate PVT and phase behaviorInterpret core analysis, well logs, rock types, fluid contacts, and reservoir heterogeneityCalculate STOIIP and GIIP using volumetric and probabilistic methodsApply oil and gas material balance, including aquifer support and drive-mechanism diagnosisAnalyze Darcy flow, multiphase flow, relative permeability, and Buckley-Leverett displacementInterpret pressure buildup, drawdown, interference, and other well-test dataForecast production using decline-curve and rate-transient conceptsEvaluate waterflooding, gas injection, CO₂ flooding, chemical EOR, and thermal recoveryUnderstand reservoir simulation, history matching, uncertainty, reserves classification, and field-development planningWith 30 chapters across seven parts, worked numerical examples, practical equations, diagrams, and chapter summaries, the book is designed for structured learning as well as professional reference.Build the technical judgment needed to understand reservoir behavior from core data to recovery strategy-add this practical reservoir engineering handbook to your reference library today.
