Most materials will be provided through ‘MyUni’ 

This course provides an introduction to the specialist petroleum engineering topics taught and researched at the Australian School of Petroleum. Weekly lectures are designed to give students a foundation for the broad range of petroleum engineering subjects covered throughout their undergraduate program. The fundamental and foundation material covered in the lectures will be supported by problem-solving exercises. This will include a research exercise in week three that is designed to help students develop research skills such as problem formulation and synthesis of data and ideas from multiple sources. These in-class exercises give students an opportunity to get hands-on experience in solving typical petroleum engineering problems and to raise their awareness of common industry issues. During the course, we hope to have fun, to welcome you to the school that will be your home for your petroleum engineering degree and to imbue you with our enthusiasm for analysing the earth’s subsurface and advancing the exploration for and development of petroleum accumulations.

This course involves four sessions (50 minutes each) per week of combined lectures and exercises.

Not applicable

You will be advised of the dates and times of practical tests through MyUni at least two weeks in advance of the date of the test.

Alternative test dates for students who cannot be present on the date of the test on medical and compassionate grounds can be requested through the Course Coordinator.

The course will be assessed as specicified in the assessment summary

Deadlines for submission of any exercises will be provided in class and on MyUni.

Submission of Work for Assessment
Practical and field class exercises should be submitted in hardcopy with a completed copy of the assessment coversheet that is available from the school office. This should be signed to indicate you have read the above university policy statement on plagiarism, collusion and related forms of cheating.

Extensions for Assessment Tasks
Extensions of deadlines for assessment tasks may be allowed for reasonable causes. Such situations would include compassionate and medical grounds of the severity that would justify the awarding of a supplementary examination. Evidence for the grounds must be provided when an extension is requested. Students are required to apply for an extension to the Course Co-ordinator before the assessment task is due. Extensions will not be provided on the grounds of poor prioritising of time.

Penalty for Late Submission of Assessment Tasks
Assessment tasks must be submitted by the stated deadlines. There will be a penalty for late submission of assessment tasks. The submitted work will be marked ‘without prejudice’ and 10% of the obtained mark will be deducted for each working day (or part of a day) that an assessment task is late, up to a maximum penalty of 50% of the mark attained. An examiner may elect not to accept any assessment task that a student wants to submit after that task has been marked and feedback provided to the rest of the class.

Provision of Feedback to Students
Exercises will be returned to students within two weeks of their submission.
