20 MSc Programs in Petroleum Engineering 2024

The MSc in Petroleum Geosciences is a research-intensive program at an internationally recognized center of excellence in education and research in petroleum geology and geophysics. Upon completion of the MSc in Petroleum Geosciences, graduates will be able to apply knowledge of mathematics, chemistry, physics, geology, and geophysics to formulate solutions to various geoscience problems.

Where to effectively study this subject if not in Azerbaijan? By the beginning of the 20th century, the world’s half of the then discovered oil reserves were in our country! Currently, two-thirds of Azerbaijan is rich in natural gas and oil, while, by the end of 2020, the volume of oil shipped via the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline (1,768 kilometers in length) managed to reach 3.5 billion barrels since 2006. This post-graduate program of ours is of a distinctly applied nature, providing also for developing unique skills in analysis and synthesis in the field.

The MSc in Petroleum Engineering at Heriot-Watt University is a programme of lectures and project work that encompasses a wide range of petroleum engineering fundamentals pertinent to the modern petroleum industry.

Your study at MSc level at Bradford will be a foundation for life aimed at developing a deep understanding of advanced technical principles, analytical tools, and competence in their application together with a wide range of management, personal and professional skills. The course will provide you with essential tools based on the concept of sustainability and low carbon footprint for changing raw materials into useful products in a safe and cost-effective way.

There’s a worldwide shortage of qualified engineers in the petroleum-refining systems-engineering industry. Our MSc is filling that gap by providing you with the teaching you need to become a qualified and successful engineer.

This course combines engineering and business studies and is offered by the Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Technology, but includes contributions from the Departments of Business Administration and Accounting at EMaTTech.

At UTP, the MSc course in Petroleum Engineering offers qualified and dedicated graduates with a learning experience and industry relevant research and field development projects related to the needs of the multibillion-dollar petroleum industry.

Our mission is to provide a platform for life-long learning while also emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary approach, ethical conduct, and health, safety & environmental issues.

The Applied Petroleum Geoscience MSc is a unique degree in subsurface geoscience and exploration at Heriot-Watt University. The degree mainly focuses on exploration petroleum geoscience, but it is closely linked with other MSc degrees and research groups in petroleum engineering and reservoir geology at the GeoEnergy Engineering, Heriot-Watt University. The degree is also applicable to non-petroleum subsurface geoscience subjects, such as CO2 storage and groundwater flow.

Shape your engineering career for the rapidly changing demands of the gas and petroleum industry with a Master's course focused on the sector's future. You'll develop your skills in oil and gas extraction, as these will remain part of the world's energy mix for years to come. But you'll also look at the opportunities and threats of the transition to green energy and Net Zero carbon targets, examine environmental challenges and climate change mitigation measures such as CO2 capture and storage, and diversify your skillset with subjects such as data science and artificial intelligence.

The Petroleum Geoscience MSc is taught over one calendar year by leading researchers in the field. We will build your knowledge by examining the sedimentary and structural processes that govern the way sedimentary basins fill, and how an understanding of these complex three-dimensional systems can be usefully applied to improve models of petroleum systems in the subsurface.

Petrophysics is the study of the physical and chemical properties of reservoirs (rocks and fluids). It is the first such program in North America and addresses properties of subsurface rock formations and the fluid within those strata with particular application to the petroleum exploration and production industry. The course work including the graduate research project is a multidisciplinary program with Geology, Physics, and Natural Gas Engineering courses.

The objectives of the graduate studies in the Chemical and Natural Gas Engineering programs are as follows. To prepare students for successful careers and major contributions to the natural gas, petroleum, and chemical process industries by instilling in them fundamental concepts as well as practical knowledge of modern engineering to overcome current as well as future challenges of the industries.

Petroleum Engineering graduate program at Nazarbayev University is a two-year, full-time M.Sc. degree program designed to provide students with a scientific background in hydrocarbon exploration, reservoir engineering and management, oil and gas production, and skills in the practical aspects of petroleum engineering.

The goal of this program is to graduate master-level petroleum engineers who are highly qualified for a rewarding professional experience. Graduates may choose to work in the petroleum industry, continue on to other graduate-level degrees, or join consulting/contracting companies.
