About the Department

Petroleum Engineering has become an area of interest for the globe considering current energy needs of the industrialized society. The ultimate goal of a petroleum engineer is to pursue all the techniques to achieve maximum sustainable recoveries from conventional and unconventional reservoirs. Achievement of such objectives requires extensive drilling, production, and reservoir engineering strategies. Hence, the oil and gas industry require professional graduates capable of dealing with entire field challenges related to drilling, production and reservoir engineering. Therefore, the present need is to train young minds on practical, theoretical and research horizons. Petroleum and Gas Engineering department at DUET, has made its task to provide industry with highly intellectual minds with strong theoretical background, practical exposure and possess research skills so that all the prevailing and upcoming challenges are solved as per the objectives. The department’s course structure is based on course work, regular assignments, quizzes, practical experiments, and regular field work/visits. The department also arranges field internships with the collaboration of various renowned oil and gas companies.
