I'm still taking the class that requires this textbook, so I'm only 10 chapters deep into this 15 chapter text. So far, every chapter has at least one grammar, spelling, or punctuation error, if not much more. While that does get annoying, Hilyard's book provides a clear and thorough introduction to the Oil & Gas industry without being overly technical. By the 2nd chapter, I was able to carry on conversations about the industry with my dad, who retired from the field close to 20 years ago.

If the editing and proofreading were carried out more professionally, I would have rated this textbook 5 stars without hesitation.

Just recently, I finished reading Joseph Hilyard's book, "The Oil & Gas Industry: A Nontechnical Guide". And I am happy to report that the book was both edifying and enjoyable. Mr. Hilyard sets about in this book to accomplish a noble, though challenging, objective: to provide an introduction to this tremendously complex, and important, industry in a manner that doesn't require a significant and deep technical background. And I think that he has accomplished this objective in fine fashion.

Having read carefully through the entire book, from cover to cover, I would say that I am now in possession of an understanding of the industry far greater than the average layman. To put this in context, I am an MBA graduate, whose career thus far has focused primarily on Data Management in the Financial Services area. As we live now in greater Houston, a city whose economy is dominated by the Oil and Gas industry, I found Mr. Hilyard's book to be extremely useful.

The book manages to cover a very wide variety of subjects with respect to the industry, ranging from the fundamentals of Oil and Gas discovery, exploration, and development, to product development, distribution, marketing, industry structure, and finally to emerging challenges that the industry must come to address. Mr. Hilyard succeeds admirably in covering these important matters in a manner that is both readable and informative. We applaud the author for his fine efforts in this regard and encourage others to avail themselves of the excellent learning opportunity provided by this important and well written book. God bless.

Pretty disappointed. The copy I purchased new through Amazon was missing an entire chapter on section on pipeline transportation (pages 161-176). Parts of this book were good for an easy intro into the industry but with the missing section and typographic errors, I'd suggest looking elsewhere, there are lots of quality books at this price level.

This book provides an easy to read first introduction to the business of oil and gas. A must for anyone who wants to be acquainted with this.

Generally excellent. I would like to see more extensive coverage of Peak Oil, Shale Oil, Kerogen Oil, and the Olduvai Theory, and the implications of all these.
