Welcome to the BSc. (Hons) Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering

Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering is a field related to extracting hydrocarbon resources (either crude oil or natural gas) from subsurface reservoirs. Petroleum and natural gas engineers predominantly work in the upstream sector of the oil and energy industries, which comprises exploration, field development, well drilling, production and injection well optimization, and wastewater disposal and CO2 sequestration well planning.
We are committed to training tomorrow’s petroleum and natural gas engineers to play an active role in the global energy scenario. These are exciting times to generate innovative engineering solutions that can assist the dual challenge of delivering reliable, low-cost energy with lower carbon emissions. We welcome students to join our program and learn the technical and engineering skills necessary for the sustainable production of subsurface energy resources and the geo-storage of carbon dioxide and hydrogen.
Career Pathway
Petroleum Engineer, Reservoir Engineer, Drilling Engineer, Production Engineer, Environmental Engineer, Project Manager, geoscientists; reservoir drilling and production engineers; managers; commercial analysts; and in business development roles
