Excerpt from Petroleum Mining and Oil-Field Development: A Guide to the Exploration of Petroleum Lands, and a Study of the Engineering Problems Connected With the Winning of Petroleum Including Statistical Data of Important Oil-Fields, Notes on the Origin and Distribution of Petroleum, and a Description of The
None of the engineering colleges has yet taken the initiative of introducing a special course of training for petroleum engineers, although such is, I understand, under consideration. F here are few branches of Engi neering that offer brighter prospects to an energetic and. Enterprising engineer, and there is certainly none that presents more varied and interesting problems.
