The Future of Petroleum Operations
This state-of-the-art text analyzes some of the most contentious
issues in the energy industry, covering new and greener processes
for engineers and scientists and urging them to move petroleum
operations closer to sustainability. Although petroleum is still
the world's most diverse, efficient, and abundant energy source,
there is a growing initiative from global political and industry
leaders to "go green," because of climate concerns and high
gasoline prices. This book investigates and details how to do
that.
This groundbreaking new volume:
* Explains why current petroleum industry practices are
inherently unsustainable and offers unique new solutions for
"greening" the petroleum industry
* Discusses hot-button issues, such as global warming, carbon
sequestration, zero-waste management, and sustainability
* Shows engineers and scientists how to implement the processes
necessary to be more environmentally conscious
* Offers, for the first time, a new theory that certain carbons
do not contribute to global warming, but their origin and the
processes involved do
Praise for The Greening of Petroleum
Operations
"The book proposes a paradigm shift in energy management. It
correctly identifies root causes of environmental impact of current
petroleum production operations. With proper science, the book
shows that fossil fuel production and utilization are inherently
sustainable as long as natural materials and energy sources are
used.... This book has the potential of revolutionizing energy
management practices."

Engineering, University of Calgary
