Book Undiscovered Oil and Gas Resources

Download or read book Undiscovered Oil and Gas Resources written by Committee on Undiscovered Oil and Gas Resources and published by . This book was released on 1991-01-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the U.S. Department of the Interior released its 1989 estimates of how much undiscovered oil and gas remain in the United States, a controversy ensued. Some members of the petroleum industry charged that the estimates were too low. This book evaluates the scientific credibility of the statistical and geological methods underlying the estimates.

Book Global Resource Estimates from Total Petroleum Systems

Download or read book Global Resource Estimates from Total Petroleum Systems written by Thomas S. Ahlbrandt and published by AAPG. This book was released on 2005 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presented in this publication are the results of a major study of the petroleum resources of the world as analyzed by Total Petroleum Systems. The distribution and volumes of resources available in these systems are critically important for the future of the world's economies. Geologic insights gained from studying these 149 systems and their constituent assessment units in 128 provinces and 96 countries, exclusive of the United States, allow a new look at petroleum accumulations and the rocks that are intimately associated with them.

Book Introduction to Peak Oil

Download or read book Introduction to Peak Oil written by R.W. Bentley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the physical and economic characteristics of the global oil resource to explain why peak oil has been so poorly understood. The author draws on information held in oil industry datasets that are not widely available outside of the specialist literature, and describes a number of methods that have been successfully used to predict oil peaks. In contrast to the widely-held view that ‘all oil forecasts are wrong’, these methods correctly predicted the current peak in global conventional oil production. Current oil forecasts are then compared to evaluate the expected dates for regional and global oil peaks for conventional oil, all-oils, and all-liquids. The dates of global peaks in the production of all-oil and all-liquids appear to be reasonably soon, while the oil price that is needed to support these global production levels continues to rise. The world faces serious constraints in its oil supply, which accounts for about one-third of total world energy use, and over 90% of the fuel used for transportation. Readers of this book will gain a thorough understanding of the critical, but poorly understood, phenomenon of peak oil that has already had significant impacts on society in terms of high oil prices, and which will place increasing constraints on mankind’s supply of energy and economic well-being in the coming years.

Book World Conventional Crude Oil and Natural Gas Indentified Reserves  Undiscovered Resources and Futures

Download or read book World Conventional Crude Oil and Natural Gas Indentified Reserves Undiscovered Resources and Futures written by C. D. Masters and published by . This book was released on 2001-04-01 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes, at the petroleum basin level, the U.S. Geological Survey's World Energy Program 1993 assessment of world conventional oil and gas resources. The maps provided show boundaries of petroleum basins that are referenced by the assessment, as well as, future oil and gas potential. The "Futures" or future potential of a basin is calculated as the sum of the Identified Reserves and the modal value assigned to the conventional Undiscovered Resources.

Book Handbook of Caribbean Economies

Download or read book Handbook of Caribbean Economies written by Robert E. Looney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume aims to illustrate the uniqueness of the economies of the countries and territories of the Caribbean as well as the similarities they share with other regions. While most countries in the region share many of the characteristics of middle-income countries, theirs is a matter of extremes. Their generally small size suggests a fragility not found elsewhere. While much of the world is beginning to feel some effects of climate change, the Caribbean is ground zero. These factors suggest a difficult road ahead, but the chapters presented in this volume aim to help to spur the search for creative solutions to the region’s problems. The chapters, written by expert contributors, examine the Caribbean economies from several perspectives. Many break new ground in questioning past policy mindsets, while developing new approaches to many of the traditional constraints limiting growth in the region. The volume is organized in four sections. Part I examines commonalities, including issues surrounding small economies, tourism, climate change and energy security. Part II looks at obstacles to sustained progress, for example debt, natural disasters and crime. In Part III chapters consider the specific role of external influences, including the USA and the European Union, the People's Republic of China, as well as regional co-operation. The volume concludes in Part IV with country case studies intended to provide a sense of the diversity that runs through the region.
