ISBN: 1933762306 ISBN-13: 9781933762302 Publisher: Gulf Publishing Company OUR PRICE: $202.95 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: September 2008 Annotation: It is estimated that the direct costs of corrosion in pipelines is about $7 billion dollars per year. Scale, or desposits, that can build up in the wellbore tubulars and other downhole components not only cause considerable damage to the life of the well, but an unnecessary amount of downtime in production and well coompletion. Infrastructure, provides the support for the well's system, and with more oil and gas consumption on the rise, and transportation to feed that demand, information on corrosion and scaling has become a must-have reference for all petroleum and pipeline engineers. The Fundamentals of Corrosion and Scaling will provide the quick knowledge that engineers need to not only understand the neccessary information on corrosion but protect all equipment from future problems. This book will also teach the engineer how to: Enhance the reliability and integrity of corrosion an scale control technologies |

| Publisher Description: Scale, or deposits, can build up in the wellbore tubulars and other downhole components, causing considerable damage to the life of the well. Infrastructure provides the support for the wells system and with oil and gas consumption on the rise and transportation required to feed that demand, all petroleum and pipeline engineers must have accurate corrosion and scaling information. The Fundamentals of Corrosion and Scaling for Petroleum and Environmental Engineers will provide the quick knowledge that engineers need to not only enhance the reliability of corrosion and scale control technologies but also manage scale deposits, prevent fatigue and ensure equipment integrity. |
