To the point, Dec 28 2011
By Tom "ontrac1" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Formulas and Calculations for Drilling, Production, and Workover: All the Formulas You Need to Solve Drilling and Production Problems (Spiral-bound)
Pre-release customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program
Terrific book that cuts to the chase. No fluff just logically arranged for quick & easy access. If this book were printed on a little heavier glossy type stock or laminated type paper it would hold up a bit better in the field. Of course that would add a significant amount of cost to an already expensive book, personally I think it would be worth it. In any event this is a great reference for those in the field.

Compact reference book for oil field personnel, Feb 29 2012
By OlyNomad - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Formulas and Calculations for Drilling, Production, and Workover: All the Formulas You Need to Solve Drilling and Production Problems (Spiral-bound)
Pre-release customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program
This book is an excellent reference source for oil field personnel. What it has going for it is the sheer volume of information and formulas in it, the simplicity of that information in how it is laid out, organized and given to you and the convenience of it. I think what is inside the book is top notch, but the quality of the book itself suffers some because it seems a little cheap and like it will fall apart easily out in the field unless you are extremely careful with it and it only goes from your clean dainty hands to your bag or briefcase. Even just laminating the cover would have added protection and sturdiness to it. I also would have preferred a section where I could add some of my own notes.
