Hardback. Condición: New. This comprehensive guide distills nearly two decades of research and teaching into a clear, application-focused resource on geological CO2 storage (GCS) modeling tailored specifically for petroleum engineers. While GCS modeling has historically been driven by physics, mathematics, and hydrogeology, petroleum engineering CO2 modeling often requires a different approach. This book translates complex, multidisciplinary CO2 geological modeling techniques into a unified, petroleum engineer-friendly framework. Unlike generic carbon storage resources, this book connects carbon storage engineering theory directly to CCS field application for petroleum engineers. You'll learn how to integrate CO2 injection modeling into established reservoir engineering workflows, run Excel CO2 storage modeling tutorials, and apply geological carbon storage techniques to practical decision-making. The book features Excel-based modeling exercises, interactive quizzes, and practical examples that reinforce key concepts and build technical mastery-making it ideal for both self-study and team training in carbon storage simulation. Whether your focus is CO2 sequestration engineering, enhanced oil recovery CO2 modeling, or transitioning from oil and gas to carbon storage, this is the go-to reference for mastering CO2 storage with clarity and confidence. …

Paperback. Condición: New. ESG is a powerful concept that combines expectations for environmental (E) and social (S) benefits with effective governance (G), to ensure those benefits are achieved. How can project teams manage ESG with the same discipline, structure, and consistency that characterize the way they manage safety, cost, schedule, and quality? The answer lies in doing what teams do best: breaking down the problem into manageable chunks, setting up a process everyone can follow, working together to develop a plan to which all players can commit, and then executing that plan.This Guide is a methodology for doing exactly that. It is a workbook, filled with predefined worksheets to be completed for each project. It provides a structure for planning workshops to address each aspect of an ESG plan. In addition to its use by project teams, this Guide can also be used by executives, investors, lenders, or government agencies as part of due diligence to ensure plans are in place to meet or exceed ESG requirements and expectations.…

Hardback. Condición: New. This book focuses primarily on the energy products that are financially traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange: crude oil, natural gas, unleaded gasoline, and heating oil. These commodities are the most common ones used for hedging energy commodity risk. Each of these products has a profound effect on the United States and international economies. It discusses several of the factors that influence energy price direction, the financial instruments used in the market, and how commercial entities utilize these instruments to hedge the risks inherent in energy production and consumption, such as price and physical risk. It also addresses the use of energy financial derivatives strictly for profit (speculative trading) and the exchanges that make efficient and competitive trading possible. The physical cash market is addressed along with the major industry publications that produce market prices, known as postings or indexes. Additionally, the book briefly discusses technical analysis, using charts to identify price trends and predict directional changes. Finally, the book discusses the need for stringent controls on the trading of financial energy derivatives to avoid some of the more notorious pitfalls that have led to the collapse of major global companies and institutions.Features and BenefitsSupply / Demand FundamentalsMarket overviews (financial and physical)ContractsDerivativesTechnical AnalysisRisk Controls.…
