Bachelor in Petroleum Engineering study program is a complex study program that includes a number of disciplines such as geology, chemistry, physics, mechanics, mechanical engineering, material engineering, and IT technology, also including good language skills (primary English).

The primary objectives of petroleum engineering are the safe and environmentally sound exploration, evaluation, development, and recovery of oil, gas, geothermal, and other fluids in the earth. Skills in this branch of engineering are needed to meet the world’s ever-increasing demand for hydrocarbon fuel, thermal energy, and waste and pollution management.

Our four-year Bachelor of Petroleum Engineering program features studies in physics, chemistry, mathematics, geology, economics and other specialist petroleum engineering topics. Students will be prepared adequately for the petroleum industry and its related fields as drilling, exploitation, petroleum production, reservoir engineering and transportation of oil, natural gas and petroleum economics, etc.

Students of the Bachelor of Engineering in Petroleum Engineering will understand the principles of engineering in the areas of Petroleum Engineering, Petroleum Geology, Engineering Materials, etc.

A Bachelor of Petroleum Engineering Technology (Operation and Safety) with an Honours program that applies Engineering Technology in Oil & Gas (Operation & Safety) in Downstream Plants. Produce versatile engineer and technologist with sufficient theoretical knowledge and technical capability in operating on oil and gas downstream plants.

BSc in Petroleum Engineering program offers an exciting career in the oil and gas industry. Petroleum engineers are responsible for producing hydrocarbon resources from oil and gas reservoirs. They are capable of addressing and solving important technological challenges, which will ultimately lead to energy security and socio-economic success.

This program provides advanced training for prospective petroleum engineering professionals to enable them to create and apply innovative technologies in drilling, production, and reservoir engineering, while efficiently enhancing their knowledge and skills in the process of finding positive solutions to a range of different environmental issues related to the petroleum industry as well as energy consumption in general.

Petroleum Engineering is more than just oil and gas: in addition to energy, petroleum-based products such as plastics are key components of virtually every consumer product and medical device we use.

Energy is a key component in modern civilization. Since the drilling of the first commercial oil well in 1858, petroleum engineers and geoscientists engineers have supplied the world with the number one source of energy – crude oil and natural gas.

This program nurtures high-quality technical talents with a broad adaptability and engineering basic theory and petroleum engineering speciality knowledge, can be engaged in oil and gas drilling in the field of petroleum engineering and completion engineering, production engineering, reservoir engineering, oil chemical aspects of engineering design, construction and management, application research and development of science and technology work.

Become a petroleum professional with extensive basic theoretical knowledge, solid practical application capabilities, who can engage in engineering design, reservoir engineering design, production and construction, site management, international cooperation, and scientific research in the field of petroleum engineering.

The mission of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering Department is to educate students for the practice of their profession in drilling, production and reservoir engineering topics for underground fluid resources in oil and gas and, for the advancement of knowledge and technology that form the basis of petroleum engineering as well as for finding solutions to the national, international, societal and environmental issues related to petroleum industry.

Petroleum engineering refers to the subsurface engineering activities related to the production of hydrocarbons, which can be either crude oil or gas. Petroleum Engineering focuses on maximizing economic recovery of hydrocarbons from subsurface reservoirs and estimation the recoverable volume of this resource using a detailed understanding of the physical behavior of oil, water and gas within porous rock at very high pressure.

Petroleum engineering is the branch of engineering concerned with the drilling, recovery, production, and distribution of petroleum and natural gas. It includes knowledge of the properties of fluids and rocks in surface and subsurface environments as well as methods of exploiting the economic production of oil and gas from petroleum reservoirs. A major subdivision at KU is reservoir engineering, or the development of processes to improve production from oil and gas reservoirs. Reservoir engineers use sophisticated mathematical techniques and computer technology to obtain optimum production.

The Petroleum Engineer is trained to carry out study, project, calculation, construction, and management of works, facilities, and processes in all their stages: exploration, drilling, production, distillation, treatment, transportation, and storage of oil, gas, and its derivatives. Will perform highly technical and managerial competence tasks. He will be able to advise on location studies and the development of reservoirs. Selection of equipment, instruments, and tools related to different stages of development of a reservoir. Optimization of various treatments in injection wells and/or producers.
