Presentation Of Oil And Gas Information: Fill & Download for Free

I am still learning myself how to invest in energy properly, and not sure what is "best". On the other hand, I am blessed with a mentorship of one of the best energy investors in the US, who has achieved 35% annualized return over the past 25 years by investing exclusively in energy stocks. I am happy to share books that are currently on my desk (best or not), and a few bits of advice from my mentor.If you are totally new to energy investing, this might be a good start:Energy Investing For Dummies: Nick HodgeBooks on investing in O&G:Investing in Oil and Gas: Mike MayFundamentals of Investing in Oil and Gas: Chris TermeerBooks about O&G industry:A Profile of the Oil and Gas Industry: Linda HerkenhoffThe Global Oil & Gas Industry: Management, Strategy and Finance: Andrew InkpenI asked my mentor how he learned to invest in energy so well. His tips:Read industry publications such as Oil & Gas Investor Magazine, Oil & Gas Journal;Listen to many sell-side and company presentations to see what people focus on and what drives value;Understand the valuation of oil and gas reserves. It's the foundation for investing in O&G;Evaluate companies on an operational basis, "rather than just on a financial one, which can lead you down wrong paths in this industry".Consider also attending events organized by Independent Petroleum Association of America. They are inexpensive and informative.

There is considerable amount of oil and gas beneath the western and north-western soil of Pakistan but it is unfortunate that various governments and establishments have different priorities. I have witnessed a place near Lakki Marwat where people use to blow the fire from the rocks. As rocks are continuously leaking gas and kerosene oil.My friends who live there have told me that many times we have informed the related department to come and survey the area. They came and said your destiny would change now as its a real asset which you have got. My friends were happy but unfortunately they said they never came and visited this place and they sealed some of the area and they just pretended that they were surveying. Actually they used their resources for their needs and fled. This is what happens in many areas of Pakistan.Petrol and Gas Natural Resources in K-PIn D.I Khan, there is a small village Mughal Kot which is also full of such assets. Kerosene oil and gas is present in huge quantity but no one is taking notice of this. These precious resources are being smuggled but authorities are just watching it. Link will help you to know:Neglected oil and gas resources in Pakistan special reporting from Mughal KotI can count you tens of such examples where oil and gas is going unused. Only it is extracted stealthily to gain personal benefits but it is not made public to the others. Corruption has made a mess of the resources of Pakistan. It is really sad but it is true that many officials, influential people, and some tribal leaders are busy in eating resources of common people.Coal reserves of Pakistan are too huge. Pakistan is at no.2 with respect to coal reserves in the world. Coal can be converted into petrol or gas through a process called as “gasification”. Learn the detail that how much amount of oil can be produced through this. You can search my answer to the following question:How important is Pakistan in natural resources? (Check my answer)Only the oil which you will produce through gasification can be more then the oil reserves of Iran but who cares where people in important positions are busy in stealing country's resources.Pakistan is a country blessed with natural resources but it is very unfortunate that it has not witnessed a state where a true people’s representative could take it to a position which is its real destination.In Balochistan too, due to the danger of militancy many companies are reluctant to explore further. Of course there could be a certain amount of such assets.I would just say that a proper leader who represents the people and has actual power to make everyone, including powerful people and institutions, accountable in front of govt; is the ask of the day. Pakistan has got hell of resources.Thanks

I'm a materials scientist in R&D for a chemical company who sees some similarities between some of problems we face internally and what you're asking about the oil and gas field. I'll provide an answer based on the requirement that both fields must to adhere to the same rules of chemistry/physics even though the end application is different.In oil and gas, engineers may want to know the ratio of oil/gas/water in what's being transferred through pipelines from offshore drilling activities by using a non-invasive technique. One way to do this is by passing a beam of gamma rays through the pipe and looking at the attenuation of the beam as it interacts with the material, which provides info about the material's density. Typically multiple beams at different wavelengths, energies and geometries are used because you have multiple degrees of freedom present in the problem you're trying to solve (i.e. you want to know the percentage of oil and water in the mixture).All of this is complicated due to how the material is flowing through the pipe. For example, at low flow rates the oil and water phases can separate into two layers with the oil phase flowing above the water phase while at high flow rates you may have a homogenous “intimately mixed” material which isn't separated at all. Also remember there's gas in the mix too, so at low flow rates you actually have three separate layers with the most dense phase being on the bottom (water) and the least dense phase being on the top (gas). To cover all of the various mixes and configurations of oil/gas/water, multiple gamma beams are used (six seems to be popular) to probe at different points in the pipe and at different energies.So with this information the prediction problem can be addressed. How do you combine data from multiple sources (gamma ray beams) to predict the fractions of oil/gas/water and geometric configuration of the mixed phases in the pipe? Your ML model needs to learn to predict properties about the mix based on the data provided by the beams. You may have data taken from prior runs that used all six beams to classify the drilling runs into low, medium and high flow rates (stratified or layered, annular or homogenous configurations), but now you want to classify the new and unlabeled with data from only two beams. Why you have a lesser number of beams could range from costs to a beam being down because it’s damaged or it’s undergoing maintenance and so on.From the perspective of a materials engineer working at a chemical company, similarities are present because we often use molecules in a process to produce a material with some property that others like and we can sell to them. We usually have information about various properties of the molecule, and we want to improve the product we sell by enhancing a key property to make the material even better. Instead of discovery new molecules we can use through brute force trial and error, we will sometimes prescreen untested molecules by classifying these molecules into "test in lab" and "don't bother" buckets by going through a similar classification scheme as described above.The oil and gas example is from a talk given by S. Srihari at Univ. of Buffalo in 2009. SNS Talks. I apologize for the weird link I posted as this is my first time replying to a question on Quora and I'm not quite used to the editor yet.
