Micrometer, Chalk, Chainsaw: Real World Petroleum Engineering Applications
Not all of us will land engineering roles in an R&D department, in fact most will land roles where we must find a balance between engineering precision, real world application, and capital discipline. Knowing when and how to utilize and apply precise engineering, in light of the multitude of variables that will affect your data, analysis, and results, all while delivering a return on invested capital is a delicate balance. How we, as practical engineers, must consider capital stewardship in an evolving industry.
