Annotation,A consultant now for the industry after working within it in several capacities for many years, Conaway has developed over the past few years this manual for the Basic Petroleum Technology course he teaches for a training firm. His general precepts are that the better people understand the jobs of those around them, the more valuable they are to their companies, and that it is not hard to get a general understanding of even the most arcane technical jobs. He follows the course of the process, from geology and the origins of oil and gas formation through the techniques used to find, drill, and produce oil. He includes a glossary without pronunciations.
