Introduction and Commercial Application This section provides an overview of the activities carried out at the various stages of field development. Each activity is driven by a business need related to that particular phase. The later sections of this manual will focus in some more detail on individual elements of the field life cycle. 

Having defined and gathered data adequate for an initial reserves estimation, the next step is to look at the various options to develop the field. The objective of the feasibility study is to document various technical options, of which at least one should be economically viable. The study will contain the subsurface development options, the process design, equipment sizes, the proposed locations (e.g. offshore platforms), and the crude evacuation and export system. The cases considered will be accompanied by a cost estimate and planning schedule. Such a document gives a complete overview of all the requirements, opportunities, risks and constraints.

The history of EM (for an overview see table Bl.17,1) can be interpreted as the development of two concepts the electron beam either illuminates a large area of tire sample ( flood-beam illumination , as in the typical transmission electron microscope (TEM) imaging using a spread-out beam) or just one point, i.e. focused to the smallest spot possible, which is then scaimed across the sample (scaiming transmission electron microscopy (STEM) or scaiming electron microscopy (SEM)). In both situations the electron beam is considered as a matter wave interacting with the sample and microscopy simply studies the interaction of the scattered electrons. 

Many methods have been developed to detemrine surface structure we have mentioned several in the previous section and there are many more. To get an idea of their relative usage and importance, we here examine historical statistics. We also review the kinds of surface structure drat have been studied to date, which gives a feeling for the kinds of surface structures tliat current methods and technology can most easily solve. This will provide an overview of the range of surfaces for which detailed surface structures are known, and those for which very little is known. 

In this chapter we review some of the most important developments in recent years in connection with the use of optical teclmiques for the characterization of surfaces. We start with an overview of the different approaches available to tire use of IR spectroscopy. Next, we briefly introduce some new optical characterization methods that rely on the use of lasers, including nonlinear spectroscopies. The following section addresses the use of x-rays for diffraction studies aimed at structural detenninations. Lastly, passing reference is made to other optical teclmiques such as ellipsometry and NMR, and to spectroscopies that only partly depend on photons.

For larger systems, various approximate schemes have been developed, called mixed methods as they treat parts of the system using different levels of theory. Of interest to us here are quantuin-seiniclassical methods, which use full quantum mechanics to treat the electrons, but use approximations based on trajectories in a classical phase space to describe the nuclear motion. The prefix quantum may be dropped, and we will talk of seiniclassical methods. There are a number of different approaches, but here we shall concentrate on the few that are suitable for direct dynamics molecular simulations. An overview of other methods is given in the introduction of [21]. 

Because of the complexity of the problem and the large amount of program development work that has to go into a synthesis design system, only a few groups worldwide have been active in this area. Here, we mention only a selection of the major ideas and achievements in this area. It is not the intention to give a comprehensive overview. For this, interested readers can consult Chapter X, Section 3.2 in the Handbook. This chapter presents one such system, the WODCA program, in greater detail. 

Readers interested in medicinal chemistry can obtain an excellent overview ft om the book The Practice of Medicinal Chemistry, edited by Wermuth [1]. The first edition is nicknamed The Green Bible by medicinal chemists. "The Red Bible written by Bbhm, Klebe, and Kubinyi describes the development of new drugs [2]. An overview of different classes of drugs and their mechanisms of action is given by Mutschler [3]. 

Table 1 provides an overview of many of the techniques available for the characterization of surfaces and interfaces. These techniques are categorized on the basis of the nature of the exciting and detected species (or force). As can be seen by Table 1, a tremendous number of approaches are available for the study of surfaces. In fact, multiple methods capable of answering all of the three questions posed above have been developed over the past thirty years.
