Heavy Oil Exploitation

Encompasses all aspects of heavy oil exploitation from geology to production to transport to upgrading. As such, the book provides a very broad overview of the full life cycle of heavy oil development. While the material does demand a basic understanding of organic chemistry as well as petroleum, mechanical, and chemical engineering, the intent is to provide an overview that would benefit both technical and nontechnical professionals working in the petroleum industry, as well as university students who required an introductory text on heavy oil exploitation.
