A Primer of Oilwell Drilling: A Basic Text of Oil and Gas Drilling

A Primer of Oilwell Drilling: A Basic Text of Oil and Gas Drilling

Customer Reviews

By Bertrand Demont
Written in a simple language, this book is accessible to readers who are not specifically familiar with oilwell drilling. Numerous photographs and drawings make it a very accurate description of the equipment and activities on and around a land rig floor. Easy, enjoyable and very informative to read throughout.
Does not tackle offshore rigs or directional drilling.


By J. Jobe "MECT 4300"
I am greatly enjoying this book as it has a very broad scope on drilling but will get down to the nitty gritty if need be. The equations are laid out in easy to read format and the images are quite good too. However, professor Castor, has really blown me away (and the rest of the class) by not explaining anything. This subject is hard to understand and it doesn't help by reading slides verbatim from the book.
