Petroleum Geoengineering

Students will have an overview of the entire upstream part of the petroleum industry. The programme focuses on competencies, skills and methods applied in geology, geophysics, petrophysics and geochemistry, which are essential for hydrocarbon exploration, field development and production projects. Special attention is given to the intersection between geology and petroleum engineering including but not limited to estimation, categorization and classification of resources and reserves as well as the management of petroleum exploration and production projects. Since the petroleum sector is one of the most globalized industries in our time, the Petroleum geoengineering programme gives a great advantage to the graduates when applying for positions at multinational or national oil and gas companies, as well as international service companies such as Schlumberger.
