Study programme Petroleum Engineering

Information for applicants

The "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, IT technology, also including good language skills (primarily English).
The aim of the study is to educate a qualified expert in the field of reservoir and exploitation engineering, respectively an expert for working with a drilling rig (for drilling of deep wells with heavy drilling rigs or workover drilling rigs, eventually for rigs for liquidation or re-liquidation wells). Thanks to complex knowledge of geology, technics and technology exploitation and storage of hydrocarbons, students will be able to solve operational problems of oil engineering.
In the area of hydrocarbon exploitation and underground gas storage, these skills include the daily problems of production wells, the intensification of exploitation and the planning and execution of workover, as well as the liquidation of wells. In the field of mor ecomplicated drilling, it is mainly about practical knowledge of operating individual drilling rig technologies (mud engineering, drilling rig machinery, drilling and casing strings, etc.).
