Python In Oil & Gas

Course Objective: Python is a computer programming language often used to build websites and software, automate tasks, and conduct data analysis. Python is a general-purpose language, meaning it can be used to create a variety of different programs and isn't specialized for any specific problems.

Combining petroleum engineering domain expertise with computer programming using "Python" as the most popular coding language for data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning, this course enables petroleum engineering professionals to build predictive models to solve the most common petroleum engineering

Learning Objective: The ability to understand your data and extract value from it is a key metric in the oil and gas industry today.

Prerequisites: specifically designed for engineers, scientists, data technicians and related practitioners in the oil & gas subsurface sector who are interested to learn python programming for the purpose of data extraction, analysis and manipulation
