LAB ASSISTANT
We are looking for a petrochemical engineer who is involved in designing means and mechanisms for excavating and digging up crude oil and gas from the earth.
A petrochemical engineer's role includes a lot of involvement in chemical engineering phenomena like heat transfer, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, etc.
Petroleum engineers are responsible for the safe extraction of hydrocarbon deposits,
such as oil and natural gas. This involves the planning and construction of boreholes (narrow holes drilled into the ground, used to locate resources) and oil wells (used to extract resources).
Typical Responsibilities Include
analyzing geological data
interpreting well-logging results (records of the geological formations penetrated by boreholes) to ascertain resource potential
ascertaining extraction risks, such as the area's potential for earthquakes
planning and supervising extraction sites
selecting and maintaining equipment
monitoring and evaluating reservoir performance
preparing reports and maps
developing oilfield production programs
liaising with and advising managerial and technical staff
using specialist computer applications and mathematical models to maximize production.
