Petroleum Abstracts Bulletin
The weekly Petroleum Abstracts Bulletin contains abstracts of the world's scientific and technical literature and patents directly related to oil and gas exploration and production.
To compile this material, PA's professional staff of petroleum engineers and geoscientists reviews journals, conference proceedings, patent gazettes, full-text patents, industry standards, books, academic dissertations, government reports and other published material. These specialists select, abstract and index the information contained in each item.
Each week's issue of the PA Bulletin includes about 800 items. All entries are in English, but PA selects from material published around the world in 33 languages. Bulletin subscribers receive this material by e-mail 50 weeks per year, in their choice of formats. Subscribers may elect to receive either the entire Bulletin or to receive customized record subsets based on user-interest profiles. Find out more ->
