PROGRAMME OUTCOMES
The three major programme outcomes are:

PO-1:

Ability to apply knowledge of engineering fundamentals

in solving complex petroleum engineering problems
supplemented by specialization know-how.

PO-2:

Ability to undertake problem identification, formulation and

solve complex petroleum engineering issues using
engineering, science and mathematical principles.

PO-3:

Ability to design complex petroleum engineering components

and systems while considering possible public health and
safety, cultural, societal, and the environmental impact.

COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of this course, students should be able to :
1. Explain various types of offshore structures [PO-1]
2. Propose suitable processes and treatment equipment to
manage produced oil, gas and water [PO-2]
3. Perform standard engineering calculations for the design of
separators, pumps, compressors and pipelines [PO-3]
