Petroleum Engineering Timeline
Petroleum Engineering Timeline is a timeline which describes the evolution of the Petroleum Engineering Science over time.
From the first well drilled, first PVT correlation, first multiphase flow correlation, through the first computer to the modern reservoir 3D simulator.
