    Yes, LPU is beneficial in the field of petroleum engineering. As an alumnus of LPU, I can attest to the fact that the university goes above and beyond for its students in terms of education, professors, placements, and infrastructure. Petroleum engineers have progressed from just boring a hole underground to extract oil using natural energy to mastering enhanced oil technology and pushing oil from an injector well to a producer. Here are even more challenging tasks ahead for a young graduate in petroleum engineering today. Petroleum engineering education provides a wide spectrum of specialties to keep the industry running.

There are even more challenging tasks ahead for a young graduate in petroleum engineering today. Petroleum engineering education provides a wide spectrum of specialties to keep the industry running. These are reservoir engineering, drilling engineering, and production engineering to name a few. A reservoir engineer dete
