Petroleum engineering is concerned with the production of oil and natural gas from the earth.

Petroleum engineers have to face the challange of developing ways of finding and producing hydrocarbons.

 Most petroleum engineers work at production and construction sites in the outdoors, where they direct or supervise operations on the field.

Others spend time in laboratories, testing crude oil, fuels and other petroleum refined products.

Petroleum engineers work in office buildings. They use computers in their work, in analysis of exploring the reservoir's behavior, also in modification of oilfield production and drilling operations.

Most workers in this field are believed to be men, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that women cannot contribute to this field of engineering. In fact, there should be equal treatment for the female gender with men. In addition, the presence of women helps to create a softer environment.
