1. Introduction to Petroleum Engineering Major Petroleum engineering major mainly trains senior engineering and technical personnel engaged in petroleum engineering design, scientific research and production management. During school, students mainly study geology, mechanics, machinery, electricians, computers, basic chemistry, fluid mechanics, oil reservoir physics, principles of enhanced oil recovery, petroleum engineering and other courses; After graduation, they have strong foreign language and computer application ability, petroleum engineering optimization design ability, petroleum engineering technology development, scientific research and petroleum production management ability, and can independently carry out the optimization design of oil and gas field development programs and drilling and production processes, and the development and research of oil production processes and enhanced recovery technologies; They are mainly employed in petroleum, petrochemical and related industries. 2. Employment Direction of Petroleum Engineering After graduation, students of this major can engage in engineering design, engineering construction and management, application research and scientific and technological development in oil and gas drilling and completion engineering, oil production engineering, reservoir engineering, reservoir evaluation, etc. in the field of petroleum engineering.
3. What is the employment prospect of petroleum engineering? After years of exploration and practice, petroleum engineering construction technology has gone from simple to complex, from easy to difficult, from only meeting production to comprehensively considering the social benefits, economic benefits and environmental benefits of the project, from simply purchasing imported equipment to owning own patented expertise. As China's economy continues to expand at a high speed, oil exploitation is far from meeting the needs of processing and consumption growth. China has become a net importer from the past eight oil exporting countries. In order to meet the needs of the national economic development, China's oil groups continue to increase their exploration efforts, find new growth points of production capacity with commercial value, and take effective measures to maintain crude oil production, Natural gas production and petroleum engineering construction will continue to rely on technological progress.
