Description
This work presents an analyses of the fluid transport properties of rocks and the rock-fluid interactions that influence the flow of fluids. It is designed to provide research and field engineers with the theories, mathematical concepts and methods for measuring and testing the properties of rocks and fluid flow. Intended for classroom use, each chapter includes examples and solutions, and the book concludes with appendices of laboratory experiments.
