Petroleum Engineering

Petroleum engineering is a field of engineering concerned with the activities relevant to the production regarding hydrocarbons, which is either crude oil or propane. Exploration and Production are deemed to fall in the upstream sector of the oil and gas industry. Exploration, through earth scientists, and petroleum engineering are the oil and gas industry’s two key subsurface disciplines, which give attention to maximizing economic recuperation of hydrocarbons through subsurface reservoirs.
