PREFACE:
This handbook is has been compiled to give readers with an interested in the oil and
gas production industry an overview of the main processes and equipment. When I
started to search for a suitable introduction to be used for new engineers, I
discovered that much of this equipment is described in standards, equipment manuals
and project documentation. But little material was found to quickly give the reader
an overview of the entire upstream area, while still preserving enough detail to let the
engineer get an appreciation of the main characteristics and design issues.,
This book is by no means a comprehensive description on the detailed design of any
part of this process, and many details have been omitted in the interest of overview. I
have included some comments on the control issues, since that is part of my own
background. For the same reason, the description will be somewhat biased toward
the offshore installations.
The material has been compiled form various online sources as well as ABB and
customer documents. I am thankful to my colleagues in the industry for providing
valuable input, in particular Erik Solbu of Norsk Hydro for the Njord process and
valuable comments. I have included many photos to give the reader an impression
what typical facilities or equipment look like. Non-ABB photo source given below
picture other pictures and illustrations are ABB.

A book used for teaching manufacturing automation using Linux and other useful platforms. It is currently being used to teach [url=http://claymore.engineer.gvsu.edu/~jackh/books/integrated/eod/egr474.html]EGR 474 - Integrated Manufacturing Systems[/url]. This book emphasizes programming - this is not found in any other autoamtion books available. At present, half of the book is written chapters, while the other half is in note form.
