Description: This book attempts to organize the importance of subsurface oilfield waters as they are related to origin, migration,accumulation and maturation of oil and gas and thus their relationship to exploration for and production of oil and gas. One chapter presents a simplistic introduction to the origin of oilfield waters. Because oilfield waters can constitute an environmental pollution hazzard, the book describes and comments on methods of their disposal or of recovering valuable constituents from them.
Notes: Includes bibliographies and indexes.
