Petroleum Engineering is a career to deal with Crude and deals with extraction, discovery and refinement of oil Resource. Petroleum Engineering is a upcoming sector because of the scare resources and increased need of products of crude.

Petroleum Engineers would have a very good career in a country which has abundance of Crude, countries which imports crude have lot of refining and simplification process of crude which is a very lucrative job opportunities for an petroleum engineer.

Over the last few years many new universities are founded for specialized petroleum engineering courses like University of Petroleum and Engineering ( www.upes.ac.in/) and Pandit Deendayal Petroleum University ( www.pdpu.ac.in/) to name a few. Both this university have Masters Course for the stream, normally duration is 2 years for Masters and 4 years for undergraduate program.
Lot of new fields are available in india itself which can lead you to specialization like upstream or downstream petroleum engineering.
In coming years you can expect a rewarding career in petroleum engineering provided you get it to one of the good institute

In general PG petrochemical engineering requires BE in same field whether you are into bio-engineering/bio-energy/geochemical etc. It is highly demanding at global level but your parent instittion does matter in placement.



Coming to the next line of your question scope and duration it is three year course work somewhere at international level where curriculum offers honours/prestige degree takes one extra year then it becomes PG /ME by research which gives extra strength in specialized manner.

In India Rajiv Gandhi Institution of Petroleum Technology ( www.rgipt.ac.in/) supported by MOP& NG Govt. of India ( www.petroleum.nic.in/) is one of the best among the premium globally-explore it.
Good luck
Manoj

Petroleum Engineering is a good course. However you can also explore an option of pursuing Post Graduation in Infrastructure Management, may be from Institutes like Adani Institute of Infrastructure Business Ahmedabad ( www.aiim.ac.in/). Petroleum is a part of infrastructure and today seeing the investments required in infrastructure industry and PPP model of investment in the sector, there is huge scope for infrastructure management. Pandit Deendayal Petroleum University, Gandhinagar, Gujarat ( www.pdpu.ac.in/) or UPES Dehradun ( www.upes.ac.in/) are the best options for Petroleum Engineering. I would suggest you to think for management in infrastructure / petroleum industry since project managers are required but unfortunately the industry is not getting enough of them currently.

Hi,

Greeting's for the day!!!

Thanks for approaching us at CareerGuide.com!!!


Despite the fact that petroleum engineering is an attractive and high paying career option, not much information is available on it. Typically, a petreoleum engineering graduate is given the job to discover natural sources of oil and examine the same. Similarly, developing the latest machinces and equipments which can be used in the extraction and processing of oil is part of the job of a petroleum engineer. Petroleum engineers have global career and are hired by global oil companies.


1. Upstream Sector:
Consists of activities like exploartion, production and exploitation of oil and natural gases. After gaining a qualification in petroleum engineering, the engineers work in the exploration and production activities of petroleum and other related products. Using the latest drilling technology and geophysics for the exploration of oil reservoirs, they exploit the same for maximum output.

2. Downstream Sector:
Consist activities such as the refining, marketing and distributing of petroleum products. Production is not the only work carried out in a petroleum company and the job of petroleum engineer does not get over as the oil is produced, rather, it starts at this stage. Refining process is crucial for an oil product as then only it can be used. Marketing and distributing department may require a petroleum engineer to have some management degree.


Career prospects are quite attractive in petroleum sector as petroleum companies have great influence and offer attractive salaries to employees. the demand for petroleum and petroleum products is only expected to increase and the increase would lead to creation of new jobs. In fact, there is great demand of efficient petroleum engineers and almost every young graduate in petroleum engineering gets a job offer from petrol and gas companies from India and Overseas.

Whereas Private petroleum companies offer attarctive salaries to petroleum engineers, government sector oil companies are not far behind in terms of paying attractive salaries and bonuses to employees.

Those who have done Masters or Research in petroleum engineering can work in research activities of various multnational oil companies in various R&D projects.


Courses in Petroleum Engineering:
Students interested in pursuing courses in petroleum engineering can do the following:
1. ME in Petroleum Engineering
2. MTech in Petroleum Engineering
3. MTech in Petroleum Exploraiton
4. Mtech in Petroleum Refinery Engineering
5. MTech in Petroleum Refining and Petrochemical Engineering.

The Post graduation Courses ahve the duration of 2 years.
