Goodbye Dino-poo oil theory. Vast oil reserve found miles below Gulf of Mexico floor.
Last week's report of oil discovered in igneous rock many miles beneath the floor of the Gulf of Mexico led me to re-visit this avant-guarde 1999 book.
Thought provoking and just plain provocative!
It is easy to make extraordinary claims. It is much harder to back them up with extraordinary proof. While it can't be declared yet that Gold has cleared that bar, he can't be dismissed as a crackpot, either. This is a well-written, well-reasoned book that deserves wide circulation. Its implications are far-ranging in geographic and temporal scope.

Decimating info for peak oil parrots
This book just decimates all the peak oil myths.I'm glad of this, despite being born and raised in one of the most prolific oil producing areas outside of the Middle East.This info (when proven correct) will hurt the economy there immeasurably, but if it benefits our species, then so be it.The gargantuan wealth generated by oil over the last 50 or so years is obscene, which is no doubt one of the reasons why Saudi Arabia is virtually closed to outsiders.If only more of humanity knew of what goes on there...When I lived in Japan I knew someone who was an oil executive in Saudi, and the stories were outrageous in terms of materialism.Literally offensive.The kind of display and arrogance that just rubs your face into it, then stomps on your throat.The greed must stop and the info in this book is a powerful push towards that goal.The Russians knew much of the info well before Thomas Gold and have benefitted and prospered in their own right.In fact, they have sold their ideas and deep drilling technology to a number of other countries (which all just happen to be on America's sh-t list) who now export oil for huge profit.Be that as it may, this book can be a bit of a technical read in parts, but well worth the insights attained.Despite taking training in geology and biochemistry myself, Mr. Gold explains things and bridges the gap in unique ways that will cause many light bulbs to burn brightly above your head. ...

Gas Engineers Handbook for Gas Distribution Engineers.
This Handbook is fine, because it contains information about Gas distribution Technology.Another books of Natural gas are focused in production and process, and someones includes transmision, but this Book is Great for distribution Engineers who are wanted for: Net design, Odorization, Not Accounted for Gas and many topics focused in distribution. If you want buy anyone book for Gas Distribution Technology, that is the book. ... Read more

A Workable Handbook
Most books on Reservoir Engineering are very university-Academic oriented and its up to us field engineers to decide wether such theories are workable or not in actual practice.
A Goldmine of a Book
One of the few true "must read" books in the field. A grand legacy
This book is all that one would expect from Dake, and more. The long awaited update bridges the gaps left as technology has moved on since the original publication. Unfortunately Laurie is no longer with us and this publication is one of many fitting and lasting legacies. ... Read more
