330   $aRecent oil price fluctuations continue to stress the need for more efficient recovery of heavy oil and tar sandbitumen resources. With conventional production steadily declining, advances in enhanced recovery will berequired so that oil production can be extended and reservoirs last longer. A practical guide on heavy-oil relatedrecovery methods is essential for all involved in heavy oil production. To feed this demand, James Speight, awell-respected scientist and author, provides a must-read for all scientists, engineers and technologists thatare involved in production enha
