GPSA Engineering Data Book - 12th Edition
Another nice reference book from my collection

All 12th Edition sections of the book were updated in general. The new edition has many important changes some of which are outlined below:
Complete rewrite of Section 3 (Measurement); Section 7 (Separators) and 13 (Compression) were completely redrafted; Section 15 (Prime Movers) tables were updated; Section 18 (Utilities) is a completely new section made up of steam systems, heat medium systems, instrument and plant air systems, fuel systems, water treating systems, and electrical; Section 20 (Dehydration) and Section 21 (Treating) were re-written; Section 23 (Physical Properties) Table 23-2 was re-written by NIST; and Section 24 (Thermodynamic Properties) P-H diagrams were redrawn by Virtual Materials Group to the 11 x17 size.
The GPSA Engineering Data Book was first published in 1935 as a booklet containing much advertising and little technical information. In subsequent editions, technical data expanded and the Data Book gradually became the design and operating "bible" for the gas processing and related industries. Approximately 260,000 copies of this authoritative publication have been distributed by GPSA. The book has been compiled by a joint editorial committee composed of technical specialists from both GPSA and GPA. This committee known as the GPSA Editorial Review Board continually reviews and revises the manual. Periodic revisions are issued to holders of record to keep the manual up to date with technology and industry practices.
The Gas Processors Supplier Association (GPSA) was formed in 1928 as the Natural Gasoline Supply Men

thanks tempokhan, very interesting book, well I'm looking for another one related to engineering in the oil industry it's called
"best practices from ESSO engineering" in 3 volumes so if someone have it (or have them actually!) so please share them with us
thanks and best regards.
P.S: now ESSO is better known as EXXON, these books were edited for the company engineers
