Introduction
Where to effectively study this subject if not in Azerbaijan? By the beginning of the 20th century, the world’s half of the then discovered oil reserves were in our country! Currently, two-thirds of Azerbaijan is rich in natural gas and oil, while, by the end of 2020, the volume of oil shipped via the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline (1,768 kilometers in length) managed to reach 3.5 billion barrels since 2006. This post-graduate program of ours is of a distinctly applied nature, providing also for developing unique skills in analysis and synthesis in the field. The program-associated comprehensive curriculum covers a diverse study area, namely physics of oil and gas reservoirs, petroleum production technology, enhanced oil recovery methods, offshore reservoir engineering, drilling engineering, field-specific research methodology, geoscience, and many more. Get on board and sail with Khazar University to comprehend how you will be able to make a positive difference!
