Study a Petroleum and Environmental Technology MSc and explore how to safely manage projects in this rigorously reviewed industry. This course aims to develop a comprehensive understanding of the technical operation of the petroleum industry, together with some of the sectors most important environmental issues €“ such as oil spillages, climate change, and renewable energies. The course content has been developed in collaboration with our Industry Liaison Panel, which currently includes long-standing members of the Society of Petroleum Engineers. Our current extensive links enable us to offer a program of expert speakers through the free-to-attend oil and gas seminar series, which has previously featured the former Vice President of BP (Engineering), Honorary Guests from Imperial College London, and a former President of SPE International. Our connections have also led to the donation by Schlumberger of industry-standard PETREL and ECLIPSE reservoir simulation software, worth US$15 million, giving you access to the same technology used by big multinational oil companies like Shell, BP, and ExxonMobil.
