Onshore Oilfield Surface Facilities: Process Safety Engineering Guide

This book focuses on oil and gas industry to systematically summarizes the safety production operation, design code and standards, and advanced practice. It aims to provide guidance for the safety engineering process of onshore oilfield surface facilities. It is suitable for engineers engaged in the design of onshore oilfield surface facilities and can also be reference to researchers in related fields.

The basis of English translation of this book, originally in Chinese, was facilitated by artificial intelligence. The content was later revised by the author for accuracy.

Kun Fang has been engaged in the engineering and research of overseas oil and gas field surface facilities for over a decade. He led large-scale projects and solved significant technological problems and is certified as a Project Management Professional (PMP). As the chief technical leader, he has successfully completed the engineering of an oilfield with an annual production capacity of 20 million tons, a gasfield with an annual production capacity of 5 billion cubic meters. He has led and participated in nine large engineering projects. He has formulated 9 standards, authored 3 books, and obtained 29 patents (including 1 PCT patent). He has published more than ten core papers in both Chinese and English. He has received over 30 awards at the provincial and ministerial level and above, including 1 National Quality Engineering Gold Award, 1 Luban Award, 9 provincial and ministerial-level science and technology awards, and 8 provincial and ministerial level first prizes in engineering.
