  • Enhanced Oil Recovery

    Field Planning and Development Strategies

    by Vladimir Alvarado, Eduardo Manrique ...
    Enhanced-Oil Recovery (EOR) evaluations focused on asset acquisition or rejuvenation involve a combination of complex decisions, using different data sources. EOR projects have been traditionally associated with high CAPEX and OPEX, as well as high financial risk, which tend to limit the number of EOR projects launched. In this book, the authors propose workflows for EOR evaluations that account ... Read more

    Addressing the Disparity between Climate Models and Observations: Testing the Hypothesis of Anthropogenic Global Warming

    by S. Fred Singer ...
    Global warming: Is it natural or is it manmade? This issue is of crucial importance for both climate science and climate policy. We update the ongoing controversy. This booklet also discusses chaotic uncertainties of climate models and how to overcome them, presents new thinking on Climategate and the Hockeystick graph - and shows what we can say about the absence of post-1979 warming in the ...
