The Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering was established to provide manpower for the oil and gas industry of Ghana and beyond.
The undergraduate programmes focus on the development of strong fundamentals in mathematics, sciences and engineering followed by in-depth treatment of courses under the three main branches of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering which are Drilling Engineering, Reservoir Engineering and Production Engineering.
Our postgraduate students participate in scientific research activities that include experimental research, mathematical analyses, computational modelling, and/or field studies.
We also run a one-year Certificate programmes in Drilling Fluids Technology, Oil Well Cementing, Natural Gas Technology, and Basic Reservoir Management.
We believe that oil and gas fuels the world and provides the building blocks for every other profession to effectively carry out its work, and there will always be the need for more Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineers to continue with the exploration and production of oil and gas. We have therefore designed our programmes to provide you with the requisite knowledge and skills to excel in the field of oil and gas.
If you are visiting this website as a potential applicant to our programme, we can confidently say that the UMaT experience is a unique opportunity for students who intend to excel in Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering. We hope you will consider UMaT and our programme.
You are welcome to our department and wish you a pleasant visit.
