To avoid the impending energy crunch, moreproducers are switching from oil to natural gas. While natural gas engineering is well documented throughmany sources, the computer applications that provide a crucial role in engineering design and analysis arenot well published, and emerging technologies, such as shale gas drilling, are generating more advancedapplications for engineers to utilize on the job. To keep producers updated, Boyun Guo and Ali Ghalamborhave enhanced their best-selling manual, Natural Gas Engineering Handbook, to continue to provide upcomingand practicing engineers the full scope of natural gas engineering with a computer-assisted approach. Thismust-have handbook includes:A focus on real-world essentials rather than theoryIllustrative examples throughout the textWorking spreadsheet programs for all the engineering calculations on a free and easy to useCD-ROM included with this bookExercise problems at the end of every chapter, including newly added questions utilizing thespreadsheet programsExpanded sections covering todays technologies, such as multi-fractured horizontal wells andshale gas well
