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

As a fossil fuel its combustion contributes CO2 to the atmosphere‚ and so contributes to climate change. The particulates it emits on combustion contribute to inner-city pollution. Its extraction around the world is a dirty process‚ despite some half-hearted efforts to convince us otherwise. And the global appetite for oil-based fuels makes the environment‚ or indigenous people‚ only a secondary consideration in the oil business. To cap it all‚ most oil production is from politically unstable regions

Reservoir engineering is a branch of petroleum engineering that applies scientific principles to the drainage problems arising during the development and production of oil and gas reservoirs so as to obtain a high economic recovery. The working tools of the reservoir engineer are subsurface geology‚ applied mathematics‚ and the basic laws of physics and chemistry governing the behavior of liquid and vapor phases of crude oil‚ natural gas‚ and water in reservoir rock. Of particular interest to reservoir

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
