PIPELINE RISK MANAGEMENT MANUAL
PIPELINE RISK MANAGEMENT MANUAL
Ideas, Techniques, and Resources
By
W. Kent Muhlbauer, WKM Consultancy, Texas, USA
Description
Here's the ideal tool if you're looking for a flexible, straightforward analysis system for your everyday design and operations decisions. This new third edition includes sections on stations, geographical information systems, "absolute" versus "relative" risks, and the latest regulatory developments. From design to day-to-day operations and maintenance, this unique volume covers every facet of pipeline risk management, arguably the most important, definitely the most hotly debated, aspect of pipelining today. Now expanded and updated, this widely accepted standard reference guides you in managing the risks involved in pipeline operations. You'll also find ways to create a resource allocation model by linking risk with cost and customize the risk assessment technique to your specific requirements. The clear step-by-step instructions and more than 50 examples make it easy. This edition has been expanded to include offshore pipelines and distribution system pipelines as well as cross-country liquid and gas transmission pipelines.

PETROLEUM PRODUCTION ENGINEERING
PETROLEUM PRODUCTION ENGINEERING, A COMPUTER-ASSISTED APPROACH
By
Boyun Guo, Ph.D., Professor, University of Louisiana at Lafayette
William C. Lyons, PhD, PE,, New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, Socorro, New Mexico, USA
Ali Ghalambor
Description
Petroleum Production Engineering, A Computer-Assisted Approach provides handy guidelines to designing, analyzing and optimizing petroleum production systems. Broken into four parts, this book covers the full scope of petroleum production engineering, featuring stepwise calculations and computer-based spreadsheet programs. Part one contains discussions of petroleum production engineering fundamentals, empirical models for production decline analysis, and the performance of oil and natural gas wells. Part two presents principles of designing and selecting the main components of petroleum production systems including: well tubing, separation and dehydration systems, liquid pumps, gas compressors, and pipelines for oil and gas transportation. Part three introduces artificial lift methods, including sucker rod pumping systems, gas lift technology, electrical submersible pumps and other artificial lift systems. Part four is comprised of production enhancement techniques including, identifying well problems, designing acidizing jobs, guidelines to hydraulic fracturing and job evaluation techniques, and production optimization techniques.

Basic Ship Theory
Basic Ship Theory 2 Volume Set
by E. C. Tupper (Author), KJ Rawson (Author)
'This is one of the leading textbooks for naval architect students, and it remains a fine reference book....The subject matter is presented clearly with a great deal of information contained in the two volumes... Basic Ship Theory remains a primary textbook, designed to provide the student with an understanding of the fundamental principles of shiop design. A particular strength is the large number (more than 500) of worked examples, with answers included in the text.'
The Naval Architect, Feb. 2002
'will be of great assistance to practising marine engineers and naval architects'
Maritime Journal, December 2001
Reviews of previous editions:
"This is a very good book and will be a welcome addition to the library of the naval architect."
Shipping World and Shipbuilder, December 1968
"This is a professional book - cheerful but no nonsense."
Scientific American, September 1969
