petro: wiki

w/ my specialist’s degree in medicine, i’ve been admitted to graduate school to get master’s degree in petroleum engineering (more on this background later). so as i have no undergraduate knowledge in this field, i need to catch up my fellow students quickly. thus searching inside the petro industry i think one good resource that extensively covers this field is the spe website https://www.spe.org/en/. in particular, they do this by offering a wikipage based on their petroleum engineering handbook located at https://petrowiki.spe.org/PetroWiki.

below, i will try to list all the articles found at https://petrowiki.spe.org/Category:PEH as they appear in the table of contents of the original spe handbooks
