Preface to the second edition. Foreword to the 1992 edition. Preface to the 1992 edition. 1. Elasticity. 2. Failure mechanics. 3. Geological aspects of petroleum related rock mechanics. 4. Stresses around boreholes Borehole failure criteria. 5. Elastic wave propagation in rocks. 6. Rock models. 7. Mechanical properties and stress data from laboratory analysis. 8. Mechanical properties and in situ stresses from field data. 9. Stability during drilling. 10. Solids production. 11. Mechanics of hydraulic fracturing. 12. Reservoir geomechanics. A. Rock properties. B. SI Metric Conversion Factors. C. Mathematical background. D. Some formulas. E. List of symbols. Index.
Engineers and geologists in the petroleum industry will find Petroleum Related Rock Mechanics, 2E, a powerful resource in providing a basis of rock mechanical knowledge - a knowledge which can greatly assist in the understanding of field behavior, design of test programs and the design of field operations. Not only does this text give an introduction to applications of rock mechanics within the petroleum industry, it has a strong focus on basics, drilling, production and reservoir engineering. Assessment of rock mechanical parameters is covered in depth, as is acoustic wave propagation in rock
