This book contains the following eight chapters: Basic Concepts of Geology; Sedimentation; Oil and Gas Accumulation; Exploration; Economics; Well Sitting; Field Development; and Past, Present and Future. The goal of the book is to present a description of the field of petroleum geology that is centered on the point of view of the practicing petroleum geologist. After the beginning three chapters of pure geology, slanted toward the petroleum geologist's interest in oil and gas, the discussion turns toward more active concerns.
