Course Description

Our petroleum overview training provides the foundation for courses required for the SAIT's Upstream Petroleum Industry Certificate and the Unconventional Petroleum Certificate.

Learn the scope of the oil and gas industry, including the major functions, products and the environment within which it operates, particularly in Canada. We'll cover production and the process of detecting, accessing and maintaining oil and gas production, as well as discuss a variety of unconventional methods and sources used to supply energy to customers, including upstream production operations.

Discussions about midstream to downstream operations will reveal how the final product gets to the consumer through pipelines, refineries, processing plants and marketing.

A challenge exam is available for people already familiar with exploration, geology, drilling and production operations.
