Summary: From a student of the author
Comment: I got to help test-drive this textbook's material by being in a course taught by Dr. Lyons' as the book was being published, and let me tell you, this book is chock full of information about air & gas drilling. The detail is amazing, giving step-by-step examples in calculating flowrates of various drilling methods, such as aerated and foam drilling. Graphs are provided for different flowrates with all the major industry-standard drill pipes, and other helpful graphs such as geothermal gradient, surface temperature and pressure.

I took the course using this textbook as part of a Petroleum Engineering curriculum. However, this book applies to a multitude of other industries, because of environmentally-friendly and economic nature. It'll cover all the basics for you. Don't know what kinds of air compressors are out there, and how they work? Need to know the different kinds of drilling platforms are in use? Don't know the difference between direct and reverse circulation? This book has got you covered. Air and gas drilling is the next big thing in rotary drilling.
