Features: Reservoir engineering is an important component of petroleum engineering and is a comprehensive technical discipline dedicated to studying oil field development methods. It integrates the achievements and information provided by fields such as geophysics, reservoir geology, reservoir physics, flow theory, and oil production engineering to design and evaluate reservoir development plans, as well as propose corresponding technical measures based on these predictive results to achieve the maximum economic recovery rate. The writing characteristics of this book include: combining the explanation of fundamental principles with an emphasis on engineering design awareness; integrating practical methods with the introduction of advanced technologies; combining chapters; and balancing the relative independence of chapters with the systematic nature of the entire book. Additionally, the book dedicates a significant portion to explaining the new technological achievements that have proven effective domestically and internationally in recent years, such as development models for fault-block oilfields, tracer monitoring technology, production testing technology, dynamic analysis of horizontal wells, reservoir management, and other content, thereby ensuring the advanced nature of the textbook's material.
