Department of Petroleum and Gas Engineering

Petroleum and Gas Engineering has become an area of interest for the globe considering current energy needs of the industrialized society. The department has a highly qualified and experienced faculty. 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 planning, designing and safe-operation strategies of drilling, production and reservoir engineering. Hence, oil and gas industry require professional graduates capable of dealing with entire field challenges related to drilling, production and reservoir engineering. Therefore, present need is to train young minds on practical, theoretical and research horizons. Petroleum and Gas Engineering department at Dawood UET, 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. 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 and provides the learning opportunity for conducting project/thesis work. The department is equipped with the state-of-art tech-supported classrooms powered with current-world teaching practices and effective learning tools based on cognitive and affective approach. The following laboratories are also available in the department which add-ons into skills-based psychomotor learning:

• Petro-physics lab

• Geology lab

• Reservoir simulation lab

• Drilling simulation lab

• Drilling mud lab

• Hydrocarbon testing lab
