To know peculiarities of the natural waters' chemical composition formation at the great depths, features of groundwater and brines' movement, basic conditions for the petroleum deposits' groundwater formation, genetic types of oil and gas basins' waters, methodology of oil and gas hydrogeological research. Be able to construct and interpret hydro-geochemical and hydrogeodynamic maps and sections, perform hydrogeological research during the prospecting, exploration and production of oil and gas, assess the oil exploration and industrial value of groundwater

Full-time form

Basic knowledge of hydrogeology, the level of English proficiency not lower than B1

In order to determine the role of groundwater in the migration and accumulation of oil and gas deposits, the introduction to different types of groundwater, its geochemical composition and genesis takes place. The course also includes reviewing the possibilities of the underground gas and other hydrocarbons storage formation.
