Petroleum Production Technology BY MUKUNDA MADHAB GOGOI DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING, BBEC, KOKRAJHAR
What is Petroleum? It is a liquid mixture of hydrocarbons which is present in suitable rock strata and can be extracted and refined to produce fuels including petrol, paraffin, and diesel oil. It s a combination of two Greek word, Petra and Oleum. Petra means rock Oleum mens oil, so petroleum signifies the oil from rock. Fig: Crude oil
How can it be findout and what are the extraction procedures? Geological Surveying is the only technique to find out oil and natural gas Exploration is a combination process; it includes: Surface Geology Subsurface Geology Drilling Operations Electric, Radioactivity and Acoustic (Sonic) Logging Drill Stem Tests Geophysical Surveys Geochemical Surveys Maps and Cross-Sections
Basics of Petroleum Production Technology The seven basic steps of oil and natural gas extraction STEP 1: Preparing the Rig Site STEP 2: Drilling STEP 3: Cementing and Testing STEP 4: Well Completion STEP 5: Fracking STEP 6: Production and Fracking Fluid Recycling STEP 7: Well Abandonment and Land Restoration
What is drilling rig? Rig is a structure with required equipments in an oil field that is used for drilling operation Fig: drilling rig Contd
