Bachelor in Petroleum Engineering - UCSI

Recently I receive another case of a student that want to transfer credit. He is studying in university in Syria for 2 semester. But he just want to transfer credit to further study in Malaysia, UCSI offered the same course that he is studying. UCSI was known as Sedaya College located in Cheras.

I've been to the university and met with the person in charge of officer of Middle East student. I'm the agent for the university too. That's why our client are comfortable with us because we offer them a lot of courses with variety of university.

Okay the Syrian guy studying for 2 semester in Syria. First semester he took 9 subjects and second semester he took 10 subject but only 1 subject from each semester that he can exempted. For the first semester he can exempt subject Physics for Scientist and Engineers. For the second semester he can exempt subject Physical Geology. Meaning to say he don't have to take this subject again when he come to Malaysia.

Career Opportunities Graduates from Petroleum Engineering conduct studies for the exploration, development and extraction of oil and gas deposits; and plan, design, develop and supervise projects for the drilling, completion, testing and re-working of oil and gas wells. Having discovered reservoirs, together with geologists and other specialists, they examine the geologic formation and the nature of the rock containing the reservoir, determining the drilling methods to be used, monitoring the drilling and production activities. Suggest methods for EOR, IOR and MEOR procedures in order to gain high efficiency in the recovery of oil and gas. Computers are used extensively by petroleum engineers for calculations in order to simulate reservoirs, drilling or in decision making. Graduate of PET can work as:

• Oil and gas Drilling engineer
• Petroleum engineer
• Completion petroleum engineer
• Oil and gas production engineer
• Petroleum reservoir engineer
• Subsea engineer

Their duties vary a lot but mainly:

• Conduct feasibility assessment studies for developing new oil and gas fields.
• Direct and monitor oil and gas drilling operations.
• Analyze reservoir rock and fluid data to design optimum recovery methods and to predict reservoir performance and reserves.
• Specify drilling fluids, bit selection, drill stem testing procedures and equipment.
• Completion and evaluation of wells, well testing and well surveys.
• Design, develop and co-ordinate the installation, maintenance and operation of subsea well-head and production equipment.
• Select artificial lift machinery, and well and surface production equipment and systems.
• Specify programs for corrosion control and oil or gas treatment.
• Develop specifications for and monitor and supervise well modification and stimulation programs to maximize oil and gas recovery.
• Monitor and forecast oil and gas reservoir performance and recommend oil recovery techniques which extend the economic life of wells.
