[ES_JOBS_NET] MS Petrophysics at Texas A&M University-Kingsville

[Subbarao Yelisetti]

Master of Science in Petrophysics

Petrophysics is the study of the physical and chemical properties of reservoirs (rocks and fluids). It is the first such program in North America, and addresses properties of subsurface rock formations and the fluids within those strata with particular application to the petroleum exploration and production industry. The course work including graduate research project is a multidisciplinary program with Geology, Physics, and Natural Gas Engineering courses.
