Summary

MSc Mature Field Management equips you with knowledge and skills necessary to successfully manage mature oil and gas fields in a holistic, safe, and cost-effective manner. It will appeal to science and engineering graduates or those of you from a different numerate academic background who are interested in managing mature oil and gas fields to meet global energy and resource demands.

You’ll develop skills in the fundamental concepts, theories, and principles of the main petroleum engineering and geoscience disciplines involved in mature oil and gas field management. You’ll use leading computer software tools for design and analysis, integrate theory into practice, and understand the ethics and standards involved in professional engineering practice, using your knowledge to problem solve in a variety of contexts. You’ll also consider the economics of management decision making and monitoring.

As a graduate, you will be able to join an oil company asset team as a productive member and be able to apply your learning to real oilfield problems.
