Focuses on innovative techniques in locating, extracting, and managing oil and gas resources efficiently and safely.
Reservoir engineering is the branch of petroleum engineering
that focuses on how fluids (oil, gas) behave in underground reservoirs and how
to recover them efficiently and economically.
Reservoir engineers typically work on:
· Estimating reserves
· Forecasting production over time
· Designing recovery strategies
· Managing reservoir performance
· Uncertainty & risk analysis
Drilling technology covers the tools, methods, and systems
used to safely and efficiently drill oil & gas wells, from spud to TD.
