There are a number of books which you can follow for the GATE, just read thoroughly each chapter whichever book you follow. I am suggesting you some books:-
for production: - Production operations by Allen Robert (vol-1 & vol-2),
for Drilling - Well engineering and construction by H. Rabia,
for Reservoir - fundamentals of reservoir engineering by L.P Dake & book by Tariq Ahmed and for
Logging - Log interpretation principles and operations- Schlumberger.
Also, there are many books and handbooks which you can follow. Just remember don't follow so many books but complete each section of petroleum engineering from one book of each section.
Thank...more
