CBE 482/582 Upstream Oil and Gas Processing

Credits: 1 or 3

This course provides an overview of upstream petroleum processing technologies with relevant aspects of computer simulations to develop an understanding of complex fluid transport and fluid-phase interactions. It also covers process engineering aspects of gas and petroleum processing prior to refining. The first third of the course (1 credit) gives an overview of upstream processing and is appropriate for all students meeting the non-CBE prerequisite.  The remaining 2 credit hours of the course provide a more detailed coverage of upstream petroleum process.

Prerequisites: Prerequisite for 1 credit hour part of the course: ME 331, or CBE 218, or equivalent, or permission of instructor. Prerequisite for full 3 credit hour course: CBE 321, CBE 318, and Pre/Co-requisite: CBE 417, or permission of instructor.
Notes: Students enrolled in CBE 582 will be held to a higher standard than those enrolled in CBE 482.
