The proposed module aims to study the procedures applied in the oil and gas industry. In particular, the basic elements and processes related to the formation of hydrocarbons, exploration, production and the downstream sectors of the oil and gas industry are studied. The module covers oil formation and trapping, geological exploration methods, drilling, appraisal and production. In addition, it covers the fundamentals of natural gas processing, crude oil refining, and petrochemical production. It also includes the challenges of distribution and organization in this sector while analyzing the environmental problems associated with the oil and gas sector and the alternative fuels available today. Furthermore, it is analyzing issues related to air pollution and possible methods and technology to minimize its environmental impacts. In summary, the course provides the student with specific knowledge of geology, rock and mineral formation, the technologies involved in the oil and gas sector, and the operating processes of the industry.
