From there, it covers a comprehensive unit on the upstream sector of the industry, which involves how oil and gas formations are formed and found, how to find commercial quantities, draft pre-development plans, how to drill and complete wells, learn the necessary personnel and procedures to increase success, evaluate reservoirs, how to improve oil and natural gas recovery, how extraction of oil and gas operations are maintained and managed, and an in-depth look at the most up-to-date extraction techniques used by both new and older wells.The midstream sector, or unit two of Fundamentals of Investing in Oil and Gas, examines the transportation aspect of the industry.

It emphasizes the vital importance of how the latest technologies, such as hydrocracking, catalytic cracking, and alkylation, are used by the best refineries in the world to increase yields and profits. The refining business is critical to our global economy, and this is why special attention is given to finished products and specifications as slight changes in the refining industry can bring about startling changes in the marketplace.“It is important for one to have a basic understanding of all three sectors of the industry as none can exist without both of the others.

Chris Termeer's book "Fundamentals of Investing in Oil And Gas" has something for everyone from the seasoned oilman to the consumer who thinks that gasoline appears magically from the petrol nozzle. I thoroughly enjoyed each chapter of his book starting with his anecdotal coverage of the history of hydrocarbon usage in Chapter 1, which flows smoothly into his discussion of market evaluation in Chapter 2. Here he examines the effects of some of our recent political experiences in the Middle East and goes on to discuss in layman's terms some of the more technical aspects of market analysis, noting hiccups in the automotive industry that have influenced oil price. Chris's stimulating discussion of the industry includes how petroleum is found, drilled, extracted, pipe-lined, refined, along with descriptions of tools used to do all of these things as well as events that affect progress along the way. At the risk of repeating myself, I recommend Chris's book to anyone who has had a hand in finding, has or wants to invest in, or has ever used a petroleum product.

Well written and informative on the every aspect of the down, mid, and upstream sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. Very helpful resource for a novice investor like myself.

Very well written. I had no prior knowledge of the oil industry before I started reading and was surprised in the first few chapters as it reads like a story, which is a wonderful way set the stage for the more techinical subjects. I also found the detailed pictures and charts to be very helpful along with the 8.5x11 book size. The font size is also a good size, not to big nor small.

Great reference book for someone looking for information on the oil and natural gas industry. Don't let the size of the book deter it is an easy and comprehensive read.

I am so glad I read this book. The oil and gas industry can be so complex and intimidating even for the most motivated individual. However, the author writes informatively and without patronizing its reader. Beginning with the relationship between man and his first dealings with oil, Termeer goes on to explain how drilling and the oil refining process has progressed. I truly enjoyed reading this book and feel I can now consider myself an educated consumer of oil and gas.

I am very happy I purchased this book. It's so informative and gives the information in a way that even the most novice investor can understand. I believe that those already investing will appreciate and be able use the information this book provides as well.

I would recommend anyone thinking of making an investment in oil or gas to read this book. I agree with the author in the mindset of knowing who you are doing business with and understanding the business if you are going to be putting your money into it. If you do not understand it then I wouldn't invest in anything.

This book is essential for anyone looking to invest in the industry. Chris Termeer does and exceptional job of explaining the process in terminology that even a novice could understand. The book begins with a thorough explanation of industry fundamentals before transitioning into the trends and history of the market. The author leaves no stone unturned in terms of offering the absolute most thorough account as to how gas and oil are not only found, but how these crude products are transformed into the high-demand items we all yearn for. This format proves beneficial as it allows one to truly understand what exactly their money is going into before making the crucial decision as whether or not to invest in this particular market. Well-written with easy-to-read supplemental diagrams, this book offers a comprehensive overview that will aid both those new to the market as well as seasoned investors. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who may be considering investing in oil/gas or anyone with a genuine interest in the topic.
