DESCRIPTION:
Nelson emphasizes geological, petrophysical, and rock mechanics to complement other studies of the subject that use well logging and classical engineering approaches.This well organized, updated edition contains a wealth of field and laboratory data, case histories, and practical advice. From the Publisher Geologists, engineers, and petrophysicists concerned with hydrocarbon production from naturally fractured reservoirs will find this book a valuable tool for obtaining pertinent rock data to evaluate reserves and optimize well location and performance.
. Ronald Nelson, Ph.D., is a structural geologist with BPAmoco in Houston, TX. In the industry for almost 30 years, Nelson has authored numerous books and articles, the majority on fractured reservoirs, fault patterns, and fault propagation geometries in rifts, and in laboratory simulation of subsurface stress effects

Geologists, engineers, and petrophysicists concerned with hydrocarbon production from naturally fractured reservoirs will find this book a valuable tool for obtaining pertinent rock data to evaluate reserves and optimize well location and performance. A great how-to-guide for anyone working with fractured or highly anisotropic reservoirsProvides real-life illustrations through case histories and field and laboratory data
Very important information for a starter I had read this book a couple of years back, as a borehole geologist I needed to understand everything about fractured reservoirs and Ron nelson book is a must for any serious student, it is not that dens with information yet enough to be easily understood. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in natural fractures, in reservoir or in core or induced fractures, this will help a lot.I managed to get my book signed from Ron also :P. A Customer said Practical how-to book with good case studies. plenty of field and laboratory data
