Petroleum Engineering has excellent scope in India atleast in the next 2 Decades, unless Renewable Energy and Electric Vehicles completely take over the Ecosystem. However, Today with risining Petrol Prices, signifies increase in Demand and hence the scope today is fair. There are Top Upstream and Downstream Petroleum Engineering Companies operating in India in both the Private and Public Sector. Certain Top Colleges like IIT ISM, PDPU, UPES Dehradun, IIPE Vizag and RGIPT Rae Bareli.

Hello,

Petroleum engineering is very interesting field. It's a stream of engineering like computer science engineering or ECE etc..

If you are really interested in chemistry then you can choose this course. Because it totally relate with hydrocarbons which can be either crude oil or gas. The main purpose of petroleum engineer is extraction of crude oil and natural gas from their method and technology also finding the new sources of crude oil and natural gas. But in now days the work load and pressure this petroleum engineering course highly paid engineering course after the data engineer. So if you choose this career you have lot's of work, and almost this is field work but you salary is very high from freshers.

All the best.
