Petroleum Geology

History, Genesis, Exploration, Resources

This book covers the spectrum of petroleum geology from the initial sedimentology to the economic aspects of estimations of resources and reserves on a planetary scale. It includes the study of the migration of fluids in the sediment through exploration methods, the exploitation of the accumulations and the typology of oil fields.

Principles of Seismic Velocities and Time-to-Depth Conversion

"Al-Chalabi is a well-known expert in velocities and time to-depth conversions. This book embodies the knowledge and expertise he has in the specific area of time-to-depth conversions. This technique (...) is crucial for helping to develop accurate maps and images of the subsurface and to correctly estimate the necessary depths to drill wells." (The Leading Edge, October 2014)
