About this course

Mechanical engineering with oil and gas studies reflects the reality that some of the world's most demanding and technically complex engineering environments are found in the energy sector. Offshore platforms, subsea pipelines, refineries, and liquefied natural gas facilities all require mechanical engineers with both general engineering competence and specific knowledge of the challenges and standards that the oil and gas industry demands. At the same time, the energy transition is reshaping what this knowledge needs to cover, and engineers who understand conventional energy systems are well placed to contribute to the development of alternatives. At Aberdeen, which is situated at the heart of the North Sea oil and gas industry, you will develop comprehensive mechanical engineering knowledge alongside specialist study of oil and gas processes, offshore systems, energy economics, and th
