Experts from Geo-Technological Problems of Oil, Gas and Chemistry (GPOGC) Scientific Research Institute under the Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University delivers a lecture at the training course. The two-week programme, scheduled for 17–28 November in 2025, is taking place at Petrovietnam University’s Advanced Training Centre (ATC) and is co-organised by Petrovietnam University together with Petrovietnam’s Human Resources Management Division. The programme is taught by prominent international experts such as Dr Haji Malikov, Dr Arif Suleymanov and Dr Turan Ibrahimov from the Scientific Research Institute of Geo-Technological Problems of Oil, Gas and Chemistry (GPOGC) under the Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University, with additional support from Dr Le Viet Hai, former Deputy General Director of Vietsovpetro.
At the opening ceremony, Nguyen Thi My Hanh, deputy head of Petrovietnam’s HR Management Division Training Unit, remarked that the programme represents an ongoing step in implementing Petrovietnam’s cooperation agreement with its Azerbaijani partners, bringing together senior experts from GPOGC and Dr Le Viet Hai. She emphasised that the training provides an exceptional chance for the company’s young professionals to gain direct access to top-tier international expertise. She added that the engagement between instructors and participants will contribute to developing a new generation of highly skilled specialists for Vietnam’s oil, gas, and energy sectors.
The lectures covered topics such as Methods for Enhancing Oil Recovery, Reservoir Engineering Aspects of Drilling Horizontal Wells, Waterflooding Techniques and Practical Applications, Monitoring the Efficiency of Waterflooding, Gas Injection Methods and Practical Applications, Analysis of Production Decline Curves, Application of Classical Reservoir Engineering Methods, Phase Behaviour of Reservoir Fluids, Distributed Temperature Sensors, Uncertainties and Risk Management in Field Development, Analysis of Gas-Lift Well Performance, History Matching and Reservoir Optimisation, Sand Control, and Tertiary Methods for Improving Oil Recovery.
The training is anticipated to contribute meaningfully to developing a highly skilled workforce capable of employing advanced technological approaches to optimise production efficiency and address reservoir-related risks in the face of growing challenges across the oil and energy industries.
