Reviews

Professor Fanchi's shared earth modeling approach is a cutting-edge simulation concept. ...I highly recommend the book for multidisciplinary petroleum science graduate courses in geoscience and petroleum land management, and for training other scientists and engineers not schooled in petroleum engineering. - Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, March 2004
