Handy Pocket Reference To Most Used Terms,
By Jan Milo "Jan Milo" (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Let's Talk an Oil Deal: Your Key to Oil Patch Lingo (Paperback)
This is a handy resource for many of the terms used in oil & gas deals. It is useful as a quick reference when talking details of a deal over the phone or out on the field. It's small size makes it easy to tuck into a hip or jacket pocket. If you own Mr. Orban's other book, "Money In The Ground", you'll find most terms listed there as well.

Ideal booket,

This review is from: Let's Talk an Oil Deal: Your Key to Oil Patch Lingo (Paperback)
Like any and all industries today, a specialized language serves the oil and gas business. This booket is ideal for landowners, investors and anyone interested in exploration and development of hydrocarbon resources. This is a shortcut and a very handy one at that.

Information already included in "Money in the Ground-Insider's Guide to Oil and Gas Deals",
By Tom N (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Let's Talk an Oil Deal: Your Key to Oil Patch Lingo (Paperback)
Amazon recommended this book as a companion purchase; however, this very small book is already included as a chapter in the larger "Money in the Ground-Insider's Guide to Oil and Gas Deals" book.IMO, both books are overpriced for the information; however, they are easy-to-read.
