Drs. Tao Chen and Qiwei Wang, both AMPP Fellows and industry renown experts in petroleum engineering and oilfield chemistry, have teamed on Oilfield Scale Mitigation: From Prediction to Prevention: Tackling Challenges in Energy Transition and Sustainability. The two SMEs amassed an impressive roster of other well-recognized experts in the field to submit thoroughly researched and vetted original content to make up the 20 chapters the book offers. Organized in four sections-fundamentals, scale inhibitor treatment, exotic scales, and new technologies for sustainable production-this unique 650-page collaboration ranges from thermodynamics and kinetics to nanomaterials for squeeze treatment, from common scale inhibitors to challenges associated with subsea fields. With various case studies throughout, this book will become a must-have addition to the library of anyone connected with the oil and gas industry, from students to seasoned senior engineers.
