The programme of lectures and project work, encompasses a wide range of petroleum and geoenergy fundamentals, which play an important part in the modern petroleum, CCUS and hydrogen industry. Project work provides an opportunity for ideas and methods, assimilated through lectures and tutorials, to be applied to real field evaluation and development design problems. The course is applied in nature and has been designed so that on completion, you are technically well prepared for a career in industry.
