What is Petroleum Engineering

As an interdisciplinary field that marries the applicational aspect of geology and chemical engineering with exploration, petroleum engineering primarily involves extracting and producing hydrocarbons from subsurface reservoirs inside the earth. 

Petroleum engineers are responsible for designing and implementing drilling and production techniques while ensuring these valuable natural resources' efficient and safe extraction. Petroleum engineering plays a vital role in the energy industry worldwide, striving to balance the limited reserves available and energy demands in society.
