5Excellent Starting Point  Feb 08, 2010 By BrentB67
I used a previous version of this text for years and decided to update to the latest. It was a worthwhile investment. If you are thinking of making an investment in upstream energy production or have previous accounting experience and thinking of making a move to energy production this book is a must.

I will also hit a touchy subject in the industry. The industry is largely run by some of the brightest engineers, geologists, and physicists you will ever have the pleasure of meeting. Unfortunately, most of them assume that because of the demanding math background required and their mastery therein that understanding something so 'simple' as accounting or book keeping is beneath them. This book should be required reading for the technical leaders in the industry to understand the far reaching financial implications of decisions - the world does not all reduce to a net present value calculation with a 10% discount rate.

The examples may be over simplified to somebody with accounting expertise, but for those looking to bridge their knowledge to upstream energy produciton the examples do an outstanding job of demonstrating the concepts outlined in the text.

I haven't had any luck locating a solutions manual for the outstanding problem sets at the end of each chapter. I did not work through the problems in this edition, but found the experience very valuable in previous editions. I highly recommend anybody working through this for the first time to invest the effort in the problems, but as of this writing I don't know how you can verify your work.

4Great resource  Jul 05, 2011 By George M
I really enjoyed this book. The industry specific accounting practices are a great resource even for experienced Accountants who are new to the O&G industry. It is worth the price... and I will continue to use it as reference material.
