β¦ Synopsis
"The book provides more than formulations and solutions: it offers a close look at formation tester development 'behind the scenes,' as the China National Offshore Oil Corporation opens up its research, engineering and manufacturing facilities through a collection of interesting photographs to show how formation testing tools are developed from start to finish"--
