5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Soup-to-Nuts explanation for the Novice, reference for the expert, July 6, 2010
This review is from: A Primer of Oilwell Drilling, 7th Ed. (Paperback)
I have found myself teaching a lot of project management classes to people in the oil industry lately, and needed a book that explained the whole process to me. This book was perfect for that purpose. It has tons of color photos and diagrams that explain the entire process of drilling for oil - both off-shore and on land.

I recommend it to anyone seeking knowledge, working in the industry, or working with the industry.

This review is from: A Primer of Oilwell Drilling, 7th Ed. (Paperback)
This book was very helpful in educating the unwise about the basics of oil well drilling! From conception of the first drilling derrick to today's modern equipment with most everything in-between, the book covers it all. It'll provide you with a well-rounded, general knowledge of how drilling for oil takes place. Recommended!
