Research needs to be formulated to design well-perforation as
well as hydro-fracture jobs to suit the orientation of the
natural fracture system of the formation. Any other
appropriate well stimulation process needs to be addressed
along with the study. Multi-component processing and study
of seismic/VSP data for clear understanding of lithology and
fracture pattern. This study would help understanding the

Engineering studies have two systems contributing side by side
to the enhancement of comprehension and study skills. The first
is the theoretical systems; conducted primarily in the form of
lectures, tutorials and labs, which are accompanied by frequent
consultation of various knowledge sources. The second is the
practical system, in the form of Industrial and Research
Training, during which the students apply theories learnt.
The third year B.Tech students are scheduled to go through
Oil & Gas Industrial and Research Training, envisaged with a
view to make students familiar with industry operations in Oil
& Gas industry including exploration, drilling, production,
transportation, refining, distribution, electricity, generation
and research activities.
The ultimate goal of the training is to accelerate integration intoprofessional careers once the graduate is hired for d oing a certain
task. This can be achieved through many activities or objec tives:
International Exposure program launched for 3rd year B.Tech
students under which students will go for 3 weeksOrientation Programme to International Universities, namelyUniversity of Tulsa, University of Houston & University ofOklahoma in USA. The programme envisions providing
exposure of state-of-art technology in the upstream sector, toencourage petroleum engineering graduates from PDPU to bemore competitive as global professionals in the petroleumsector and to motivate students to take up research &
development programmes in their respective areas of interest.
INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH & TRAINING
?To integrate all learning in real life environment
?To expose students to all industrial engineering tasks likedesign, production, maintenance, services, equipmentoperations, technology and operational techniques
?To enhance students scientific and practical capabilities.It makes the student perceive the practical signification ofthe academic topics handled at the faculty, and direct histhinking to the practical aspects.
?To give the student, early before graduation, the feeling ofthe professional career he/she is heading for. Industrialand Research Training can represent a valuable asset for
the graduate, and for the employer. For the latter, post-hiring training can be sensible shortened.
OBJECTIVES
INTERNATIONAL EXPOSURE
?To provide international exposure to the students.
To develop Study Abroad Programme.
To develop joint research projects with universitiesabroad.
To create international learning environment by invitingfaculties from other international universities.
To invite international students to take up long term and

As per the directive of the Ministry of Human Resource
Development, Government of India, a Technical Programme
should comprise of at least 20% courses on Humanities and
Management. For better execution of policies during ones
professional career, a technocrat is required to come to terms
with the realities of life. In India, rural population comprises
of nearly 70% of the countrys total population. In a
developing nation like India, cities are getting saturated
rapidly in many ways and the onus on administrative
machinery is to focus on rural areas for development. In this
regard, it has become mandatory to know and understand
rural life and its demography. It is in this reference, School of
Petroleum Technology, under the aegis of Pandit Deendayal
Petroleum University, has introduced Summer Rural

The goals of the Doctoral Programme at the School of
Petroleum Technology comprise the following:
'The development of the highest quality of scientific and
technical manpower to cater to the needs of Industry and
R & D organisations based in the energy sector'.
These programmes with their courses and specialized research
aims to prepare students for the corporate world by enhancing
their perspectives and breadth of knowledge related to the
principle divisions of their respective fields of specialization.
The School is in the process of building state-of-art facilities in
the petroleum sector viz., reservoir engineering, enhanced oil
recovery, paleontology, petroleum geology, plasma
applications as well as solar energy, new energy sources and
application of nano technology in energy devices. Candidates
for the Ph.D degree are given intensive exposure to a specificfield of engineering research as well as continued study of a
broad range of engineering fundamentals. The main focus is
individual research and students are expected to expand the
frontiers of knowledge in their area of endeavour. Moreover,
candidates learn, absorb and otherwise experience the general
philosophy, methods and concepts of research and scholarly
inquiry so that they can successfully approach significant
problems that may or may not be related to their doctoral
research.
For the Doctoral Programme, Ph.D students are required to
register and successfully complete a minimum number of
courses as per the Ph.D rules of the School.
The doctoral degree is conferred in recognition of marked
ability and scholarship in a chosen field of knowledge. There is
no general course or credit requirement for the doctorate. A
part of the work consists of regularly scheduled graduate
courses of instruction in the chosen field and in related subject
areas outside the department called cognate subjects. In most
areas, a student must pass a comprehensive examination in a
major field of specialization and be recommended for
candidacy for the doctorate. In addition, the student must
pursue independent investigation in a subdivision of the
selected field and must present the results of the investigation
in the form of a dissertation. A special doctoral committee is
appointed for each applicant to supervise the work of the
student for both selection of courses and preparation of the
dissertation.
Candidacy is achieved when the student demonstratescompetence in his/her broad field of knowledge through
completion of a prescribed set of courses and passing a
comprehensive exam. Requirements regarding foreign
language and non-technical courses are left to individual
departments or programmes. A prospective doctoral student
should consult the program advisor for specific details.
