Non-Petroleum Energy And The Petroleum Engineer

SPE California Regional Meeting, 1979
The petroleum engineer has been identified almost exclusively with the petroleum and natural gas industries and his role has been viewed primarily as being related to the drilling for and primarily as being related to the drilling for and producing of oil and natural gas, which I shall producing of oil and natural gas, which I shall refer to ...

Basic Petroleum Accounting for Petroleum Engineers

SPE Hydrocarbon Economics and Evaluation Symposium, 2012
Abstract Oil and gas reserves are the assets that create value for oil and gas companies. While engineers are generally aware of the importance of reserve calculations, many do not know exactly how their work impacts the financial results. Oil and gas reserves, along with the book value, determine the depletion rate which impacts the net

THE PETROLEUM ENGINEER'S PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY

Proceedings of SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1983
ABSTRACT 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, 1979
Abstract 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

2009
Petroleum 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, 2023
Abstract 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, 1961
What 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, 1989
Abstract 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,
