Much of the world's petroleum is located on continentalmargins, and any further development of these offshore depositswould be impossible without new technologies and new methodscontained in this volume. Written by some of theworld's foremost authorities on oil and gas, this volumeexplains for the practicing engineer and the engineering studentsome of the most important and cutting-edge techniques fordeveloping offshore fields on continental margins.
