Summary

• Hydrocarbon exploration and production
  incorporate great technology challenges for the
  oil and gas industry. In order to meet the
  world's future demand for oil and gas, further
  technological advance is needed, which in turn
  requires research across multiple disciplines,
  including mathematics, geophysics, geology,
  petroleum engineering, signal processing, and
  computer science. This book addresses important
  aspects and fundamental concepts in hydrocarbon
  exploration and production. Moreover, new
  developments and recent advances in the relevant
  research areas are discussed, whereby special
  emphasis is placed on mathematical methods and
  modelling.

•   The book reflects the multi-disciplinary
  character of the hydrocarbon production workflow,
  ranging from seismic data imaging, seismic
  analysis and interpretation and geological model
  building, to numerical reservoir simulation.
  Various challenges concerning the production
  workflow are discussed in detail.The thirteen
  chapters of this joint work, authored by
  international experts from academic and
  industrial institutions, include survey papers of
  expository character as well as original research
  articles.

• Large parts of the material presented in
  this book were developed between November 2000
  and April 2004 through the European research and
  training network NetAGES, "Network for Automated
  Geometry Extraction from Seismic". The new
  methods described here are currently being
  implemented as software tools at Schlumberger
  Stavanger Research, one of the world's largest
  service providers to the oil industry.
