TOWARDS ACHIEVING TOTAL SUSTAINABILITY

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Sustainable Oil and Gas Development Series: Drilling Engineering delivers research materials and emerging technologies that conform sustainability drilling criteria. Starting with ideal zero-waste solutions in drilling and long-term advantages, the reference discusses the sustainability approach through the use of non-linear solutions and works its way through the most conventional practices and procedures used today. Step-by-step formulations and examples are provided to demonstrate how to look at conventional practices versus sustainable approaches with eventually diverging towards a more sustainable alternative. Emerging technologies are covered and detailed sustainability analysis is included. Economic considerations, analysis, and long-term consequences, focusing on risk management round out the with conclusions and a extensive glossary. Sustainable Oil and Gas Development Series: Drilling Engineering gives today's petroleum and drilling engineers a guide how to analyze and evaluate their operations in a more environmentally-driven way.

• Proposes sustainable technical criteria and strategies for today's most common drilling practices such as horizontal drilling, managed pressure drilling, and unconventional shale activity
• Discusses economic benefits and development challenges to invest in environmentally-friendly operations
• Highlights the most recent research, analysis, and challenges that remain including global optimization
