THE PETROLEUM ENGINEER'S PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY
Proceedings of SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1983ABSTRACT Because a majority of petroleum engineers fall under the industrial exemption, registration is usually taken for granted as a procedure that is always available if needed. Even registered engineers in public practice tend to view it as a governmental requirement without relating registration to their status as a professional and

THE TRANSITION OF PETROLEUM ENGINEERS INTO ENERGY ENGINEERS
Proceedings of SPE California Regional Meeting, 1979Abstract The transition of the petroleum engineering profession as we know it today into "energy" profession as we know it today into "energy" engineering of the future will require several changes in basic undergraduate curricula. Oil recovery will require increased reliance on enhanced recovery methods.

History of Petroleum and Petroleum Engineering
2009Petroleum in its various natural forms is known and utilized by mankind since immemorial times. However, its industrial development at a large scale came only in the late XIX century, first as a raw material to produce lighting oil and lubricants, and then, at the turn of the XX century, as a powerful source of energy that partially substituted for ...

Excellence in Petroleum Engineering
SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2023Abstract The failed merger attempt between SPE and the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) in 2020-21 brought about nonsensical calls for rebranding the petroleum engineering (PE) discipline into something like "energy engineering" and by extension SPE into "Society of Professionals in Energy." This led to the writing of "

Computers and the Petroleum Engineer
Proceedings of Fall Meeting of the Society of Petroleum Engineers of AIME, 1961What are some of the uses a petroleum engineer can make of electronic computers? How can he learn to use them? This paper answers these questions in terms to be understood by the reader who is not a computer expert. The computer expert may find here one or two ideas of how he may extend the use of computers in his company. How many times

Petroleum Engineering Manpower Demand
SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1989Abstract Over the years, the Society of Petroleum Engineers through the society-wide Manpower Committee has attempted to obtain a better understanding of manpower for the upstream side of the petroleum industry. One of the critical areas of this understanding is engineering manpower demand. In former years data has sometimes been sparse,

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2010
Abstract While remote parts of the world are awash with hundreds of trillions of cubic feet (Tcf) of natural gas, the industrialized West and emerging economies of the East can't get enough of the clean-burning, environmentally friendly fuel. The problem is transporting this compressible fluid long distances, across major bodies of water.

Petroleum Production Engineering
2017Petroleum production engineering focuses on producing hydrocarbons from well bottom-hole to surface through the wellbore . In this chapter, the terms inflow performance relationship, tubing performance relationship and choke performance relationship are firstly introduced, which relate the production rates with the in situ pressure along the flow path ...
