Petroleum engineers are one of the highest paid engineering disciplines as the demand for oil and gas is very high all over the world.

In Universities like IIT the average salary offered to students is almost more than 14 lakh. And the salary goes up according to your skill and company value.

In India, an average salary of a petroleum engineer is Rs 6,99,027 per year. As you gain experience, your salary will also high. Remuneration in this field is offered high in abroad. In the US, the average salary of a petroleum engineer is $104000 annually.
