The objective of this course is basically to
provide the students with a solid and improved knowledge in both the classical
and modern theories of both reservoir simulation and the modelling thereof. In
this respect, partial differential equations related with fluid
flow in porous media as well as the use of the finite-difference equations in
solving reservoir flow problems for various boundary conditions will also be
introduced in detail within the scope of the course. Also, the fundamentals of
petroleum reservoir simulation and modelling will also be on the agenda of the
course. The students will also be supplied with real life worked examples in
relation to reservoir simulation and modelling.

Energy and energy resources are among the most important feedstocks of economic development, national security and welfare.
Oil and natural gas (together) provides 55% of the primary energy the world consumes (as of end 2023). TUnderstanding the geographic distribution of crude oil and natural gas reserves is vitally important for every engineer working on energy related concepts and especially for petroleum and natural gas engineers. Together with the geographic distribution, how much hydrocarbon each country produces, how much they consume, the international trade, evolution of prices are also significantly important parameters to better understand the world events. All the wars (World War 1 and 2, as well as the ongoing proxy wars are wars for capturing and controling the energy resources, their transportation routes and trade. Every engineer should have scientific and updated information on these subjects.

This course provides structured information about testing methods and data acquisition. In the petroleum industry, a well test is the execution of a set of planned data acquisition activities. The acquired data is analyzed to broaden the knowledge and increase the understanding of the hydrocarbon properties therein and characteristics of the underground reservoir where the hydrocarbons are trapped. This course focuses on gas reservoirs and covers material for both conventional and unconventional gas.
Students will learn how to:
- Analyze drawdown and buildup tests in gas wells
- Identify flow regimes using the log-log diagnostic plot
- Describe characteristic pressure behavior for common bounded reservoir geometries
- Identify well test data affected by various wellbore and near-wellbore phenomena
- Design a well test to meet desired objectives
- Estimate average drainage area pressure
- Analyze well tests in hydraulically fractured wells, horizontal wells, and naturally fractured reservoirs
Course content:
- Introduction to well testing
- Radial flow
- Log-log type curve analysis
- Pressure transient testing for gas wells
- Flow regimes and the log-log diagnostic plot
- Bounded reservoir behavior
- Wellbore and near-wellbore phenomena
- Well test interpretation
- Well test design
- Estimation of average drainage area pressure
- Hydraulically fractured wells
- Horizontal wells
- Naturally fractured reservoirs
This course is designed
to provide basic background for the processing of digital seismic data,
particularly that used by the petroleum industry. Principles and methods in
petroleum seismology, with emphasis on exploring and characterizing petroleum
reservoirs using seismic methods. The emphasis is placed on the principles and
practicality of the major processing methods, including sampling, filtering,
deconvolution, seismic modeling and migration imaging. The general technical
issues in exploring petroleum reservoirs using seismic method, such as in
assessing the suitability of using seismic reflection method for petroleum reservoirs.
The course supplies information to the graduate students on the following topics: literature survey, planning of theses studies, organization and completion of theses studies and necessary technical report writing skills and formatting in compliance with the regulations.
FUNDAMENTALS OF ADVERTISING DESIGN including marketing theory and strategy, copywriting, design and selection of media.
The aim of the course is to help students understand how to communicate and develop the initial idea, whether it's a storyboard or a multifaceted marketing campaign for a product or service. Also to Learn how to transform a client's request into a presentable concept in this course. The development process for various creative scenarios, from assessing the client and the scope of the job to free-associating and sketching ideas. Students are going to learn how to create descriptive copy to accompany visuals and create iteration in design and also how to choose the strongest idea through a process of refinement.

The
course requires students to draw on skills they have developed throughout the
program to produce an original, professional-quality project in the field of
Public Relations. The projects will encourage students to develop innovative
and creative ideas and will provide the ground for them to learn ways to
produce constructive solutions to problems. Students will be expected to act
with an awareness of their social responsibilities towards the society and the
world they live in and to apply professional ethics, principles and rules. The
projects produced must be original and free from plagiarism. At the end of the
semester, the projects will be presented in front of a jury consisting of
faculty lecturers and invited experts.
The course requires
students to produce original projects drawing on knowledge and skills acquired
throughout the program. The projects must demonstrate the ability of students
in public relations, publicity and advertising areas within the framework of
integrated marketing communication, drawing on innovative and creative ideas.
The projects will require students to write effective messages, conduct media
planning, write budgets, select appropriate equipment and materials, and write
reports. They will also be expected to demonstrate their awareness of social
responsibility and professional ethical principles within the field. At the end
of the semester, projects will be presented in front of a jury consisting of
lecturers and invited experts from the field.
