(L to R): Mike Millar, Petrophysicist BG Group; Dr Julie D. Bell, LSBU’s Senior Lecturer of Petroleum Geosciences; Dr Ali Qubian, LSBU’s Course Director of BEng Petroleum Engineering; Jeremy Farrow, President of London Petrophysical Society Around 250 students from universities including LSBU, Imperial College London, University of Leicester, University of Leeds, University of Derby, University of Manchester and Royal Holloway, attended the event.
The students were able to visit stands hosted by the top industry names including BG, BP, Hess, Tullow Oil, and Schlumberger, to find out more about career opportunities and how to progress in the industry.
They then attended a series of lectures given by professionals and academics from BP, BG, Schlumberger, Perenco, Tullow Oil and the University of Leicester, with speakers drawing on their own professional experiences to give students a flavour of what they might expect from a career in different areas of the oil industry - both in the UK and overseas.
Dr Julie Bell, Senior Lecturer for Petroleum Engineering at LSBU, said: 'We were very proud to host this year's London Petrophysical Society Student Open Day, which was a great success.
'With students spread throughout the UK, these events provide a platform for students to network and learn from those working in the oil and gas industry.'
