This document outlines the contents of a report on crude oil production, including an introduction classifying organic sediments, the phases of crude production from formation to end use, reservoir classification by fluid type and drive mechanism, phase behavior of single- and multi-component fluid systems, and reservoir fluid properties for crude characterization. Key phases of crude production discussed are formation and accumulation, exploration, field development, reservoir engineering, and subsurface and surface production engineering.
