Mathematical Geoenergy: Discovery Depletion And Renewal

<p><b>A rigorous mathematical problem-solving framework for analyzing the Earth’s energy resources</b></p> <p>GeoEnergy encompasses the range of energy technologies and sources that interact with the geological subsurface. Fossil fuel availability studies have historically lacked concise modeling, tending instead toward heuristics and overly-complex processes. <i>Mathematical GeoEnergy:</i> <i>Oil Discovery, Depletion and Renewal</i> details leading-edge research based on a mathematically-oriented approach to geoenergy analysis.</p> <p>Volume highlights include:</p> <ul> <li>Applies a formal mathematical framework to oil discovery, depletion, and analysis</li> <li>Employs first-order applied physics modeling, decreasing computational resource requirements</li> <li>Illustrates model interpolation and extrapolation to fill out missing or indeterminate data</li> <li>Covers both stochastic and deterministic mathematical processes for historical analysis and prediction</li> <li>Emphasizes the importance of up-to-date data, accessed through the companion website</li> <li>Demonstrates the advantages of mathematical modeling over conventional heuristic and empirical approaches</li> <li>Accurately analyzes the past and predicts the future of geoenergy depletion and renewal using models derived from observed production data</li> </ul> <p>Intuitive mathematical models and readily available algorithms make <i>Mathematical GeoEnergy:</i> <i>Oil Discovery, Depletion and Renewal </i>an insightful and invaluable resource for scientists and engineers using robust statistical and analytical tools applicable to oil discovery, reservoir sizing, dispersion, production models, reserve growth, and more.</p>
