The new second edition of this authoritative book has retained all the virtues of the best-selling original, explaining the unique challenges of oil and gas exploration and production in the world's deepwater provinces. New chapters on geology and geophysics, rigs, and service vehicles are included, and the engineering and scientific schemes used in deepwater are covered in greater detail. Case studies in several chapters give practical examples, while the final chapter presents the latest technology employed in a "third wave" of industry evolution.

An excellent read if you want, or need, to know more about the beginnings and development of oil exploration offshore. I have only read about 30% of the book so far but my knowledge has certainly increased and it has given me a far greater understanding of oil exploration offshore.Congratulations to the authors for producing a book that is easy to understand even if the readers subject knowledge is limited.

Strongly recommended... nice book with detailed explanation which is very helpful for nontechnical person like me to understand/ visualize. CBK

I found it a little bite too price for the amount of information that are in it.I was expecting a little bite more details. Sometimes arguments are not explained at all.It s more for not professionist. for people that want to have a general overview without know too much.Anyway well written and with nice figures

Very good introduction to Nontechnical people to understand the petroleum processes especially deep water petroleum. Detail enough yet not too overwhelm.
