The book clearly explains the concepts of the drilling engineering and presents the existing knowledge ranging from the history of drilling technology to well completion. This textbook takes on the difficult issue of sustainability in drilling engineering and tries to present the engineering terminologies in a clear manner so that the new hire, as well as the veteran driller, will be able to understand the drilling concepts with minimum effort.

M.E. Hossain, PhD,?is an assistant professor in the department of petroleum engineering at King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals. He earned his PhD in petroleum engineering from Dalhousie University in 2008 and is the author of one book and over 40 research on petroleum engineering.
