Specialization in Reservoir Engineering
ABOUT THE
Program
The Specialization in Reservoir Engineering is one of the most important areas of oil engineering because it is responsible for studying the fluid rock systems where hydrocarbons are housed. The study of these systems is highly complex due to the varied properties of the deposits, making it difficult to select the appropriate operating scheme.
