B.Tech Petroleum Engineering, Anna University regulation 2021, awarding the subject code PE3403 deals with the semester IV Reservoir Engineering Syllabus. We hope that provide the syllabus in a detailed manner in one place.
Hence this article PE3403 – Reservoir Engineering syllabus, assists in acquiring knowledge regarding the subject. We include required textbooks and references to help you to prepare for academic examinations. Having a grip on the topics will help you to make proper notes, and effective strategies to complete reading the syllabus. It could be a plus point to revise the whole syllabus just by seeing the topics of the syllabus in one place, just by having the screenshots, images, and notes from an effective syllabus page, right? The following article will help you to have that information. Hope it is useful to you. Gain Knowledge and Become Inspirational.
If you want to know more about the syllabus of B.Tech Petroleum Engineering connected to an affiliated institution’s four-year undergraduate degree program. We provide you with a detailed Year-wise, semester-wise, and Subject-wise syllabus in the following link B.Tech Petroleum Engineering Syllabus Anna University Regulation 2021.
Aim Of Objectives:
To enable the students to-
- Understand the rock and fluid properties of a hydrocarbon reservoir.
- Describe the nature of the fluid flow and pressure distribution in a reservoir.
- Understand the effects of production/ injection on recovery of reserves.
