Informationen zum Autor Mark Zoback is the Benjamin M. Page Professor of Earth Sciences and Professor of Geophysics in the Department of Geophysics at Stanford University. The author/co-author of approximately 250 published research papers, he is a Fellow of the Geological Society of America, the American Geophysical Union, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In 2006 he was awarded the Emil Wiechert Medal of the German Geophysical Society and in 2008, the Walter S. Bucher Medal of the American Geophysical Union. Klappentext A practical reference for geoscientists and engineers in the petroleum and geothermal industries. Zusammenfassung This interdisciplinary book is a practical reference for geoscientists and engineers in the petroleum and geothermal industries! and for research scientists interested in stress measurements and their application. It addresses a wide range of geomechanical problems that arise during the exploitation of oil and gas reservoirs. Inhaltsverzeichnis Foreword; Part I. Basic Principles: 1.
