HOUSTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE (NORTHEAST CAMPUS) MISSION STATEMENT:

Houston Community College will be the most relevant community college in the country. We will be the opportunity institution for every student we serve – essential to our community’s success.

WELCOME:

We welcome each of you to a semester of intricate study based upon an industry and datarelated inquiry of the salient and functional features of the oil and gas industry. Each student should be prepared to exit this course with a more expanded view of this industry than when they first entered. Scholarship and class participation in all of its aspects is the key and that is what will be expected.

Course Description: A study of the petroleum industry will be undertaken from the drilling and production data management perspective. The current knowledge and technical aspects of the oil and gas industry will be taught with regards to the course content.

Prerequisites:

Course Goals:

As per department.

Students will be able to understand the theory and applications of drilling technologies and related drilling data; look at the data and make conclusions. This is In addition to understanding the formation and reservoir theory and data requirements for production that occurs after drilling. Students will be able to speak more responsibly
