The ABCs of Oil and Gas

From A to Z, this playful alphabet book turns the oilfield into a story kids can enjoy and grown-ups will instantly recognize. Each letter introduces a real concept from the world of oil and gas - from API Gravity and Blowout Preventers to Xmas Tree Valves and Zoning. Along the way, young readers will meet Roughnecks and Landmen, learn what happens when you're Spudding In, and find out why a Derrick isn't just a guy's name. With simple language, colorful illustrations, and witty nods to life on the rig, it is a fast, fun read that doubles as a surprisingly informative tour of the industry. Perfect as a gift for petroleum engineers, geologists, roughnecks, office staff, and anyone who has ever explained to their kids what they actually do all day, this is an ABCs book with just enough truth to make you laugh - and just enough jargon to make you feel right at home.
