  • 11. MATERIAL BALANCE APPLICATION FOR BROWNFIELD DEVELOPMENT

    » CHAPTER ONE 1.0 BACKGROUND Petroleum reserves are declining, and fewer noteworthy discoveries have been made in recent years (Abdus, 1990). The need to increase recovery from the vast amount of remaining oil and to compete globally require healthier reservoir management practices (Abdus et al, 1994). However, technological developments in all areas of petroleum exploration and exploitation, along ...Continue Reading »
