"GeoEnergy encompasses the range of energy technologies and sources that interact with the geological subsurface. Fossil fuel availability studies have historically lacked concise modeling, tending instead toward heuristics and overly-complex processes. Mathematical GeoEnergy: Oil Discovery, Depletion and Renewal details leading-edge research based on a mathematically-oriented approach to geoenergy analysis. Volume highlights include: Applies a formal mathematical framework to oil discovery, depletion, and analysis; employs first-order applied physics modeling, decreasing computational resource requirements; illustrates model interpolation and extrapolation to fill out missing or indeterminate data; covers both stochastic and deterministic mathematical processes for historical analysis and prediction; emphasizes the importance of up-to-date data, accessed through the companion website; demonstrates the advantages of mathematical modeling over conventional heuristic and empirical approaches; and accurately analyzes the past and predicts the future of geoenergy depletion and renewal using models derived from observed production data"--Provided by publisher
