A petroleum geologist, Alan Cockrell provides an insider’s account of the science of oil hunting, the political processes that help or hinder it, and the advances in technology that make it all possible. The book documents the ways in which wars, foreign competition, governmental regulation, and new business models affect oil exploration.
