Formulas and Calculations for Drilling, Production, and Workover 5th Edition
Formulas and Calculations for Drilling, Production, and Workover — 5th Edition by Thomas Carter, William C. Lyons, and Norton J. Lapeyrouse
Master the essential calculations every petroleum engineer and field technician relies on. This fifth edition delivers a concise, practical reference of drilling, production, and workover formulas adapted for real-world onshore and offshore operations. Clear, organized sections cover wellbore hydraulics, mud and cementing calculations, pressure and temperature corrections, tubing and casing designs, production performance, artificial lift sizing, and workover planning — all presented for quick lookup during job planning or rig-floor decision-making.
Engineered for accuracy and usability, the book translates complex theory into straightforward equations, worked examples, and conversion tables that save time on site and in the office. Whether you’re a drilling engineer, production supervisor, workover crew member, or a petroleum engineering student, you’ll find tools to estimate volumes, pressures, flow rates, friction losses, and formation parameters with confidence.
Used by professionals across the global oil and gas industry, this edition reflects contemporary practices for North America, the Middle East, West Africa, and international fields — making it a go-to resource for multi-regional operations and contractors. Compact enough for field use but thorough enough for technical planning, it helps reduce errors, improve safety margins, and increase operational efficiency.
