Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (Department Visitation) I believe that petroleum and natural gas engineering or is the perfect major and career for me. Petroleum and Natural Gas engineering otherwise abbreviated as PNGE to me is one of the most interesting‚ in depth‚ and overall the best suite of engineering for myself‚ not to mention that is where the booming money is. I am also no stranger to the natural gas industries. I had grown up on rural farm in Pennsylvania about 35 miles south of

Kohat-Potwar Oil and Gas Exploration and Production The first oil well drilled in present-day Pakistan was at Kundal on the Potwar Plateau in 1866. The first commercial oil discovery was made in the Greater Indus Basin in 1914 when the Attock Oil Company completed a 214 ft well on a thrust-faulted anticline near Khaur on the Potwar Plateau (Khan and others‚ 1986). Early success in the Kohat-Potwar geologic province served to focus much of the early exploration activity in that area. The Sui

PETROLEUM I. HISTORY The petroleum industry includes the global processes of exploration‚ extraction‚ refining‚ transporting (often by oil tankers and pipelines)‚ and marketing petroleum products. Petroleum in an unrefined state has been utilized by humans for over 5000 years. Oil in general has been used since early human history to keep fires ablaze‚ and also for warfare. The largest volume products of the industry are fuel oil and gasoline (petrol). Petroleum is also the raw material for many
