Máster en Gestión en la Industria del Petróleo, Gas Natural y Petroquímica

The Master's program in Management in the Oil, Natural Gas and Petrochemical Industry includes a study plan developed to generate the skills and master the management processes in the Oil, Natural Gas and Petrochemical Industry, which are necessary to carry out a successful directive and managerial performance of graduates in the dynamic and competitive area of hydrocarbons in all its phases.

In the first part of the program, an in-depth study of all activities in the hydrocarbon value chain is carried out, such as exploration, exploitation, reservoirs, production, transportation, treatment, processing, distribution, refining, and petrochemicals.

Next, the competencies aimed at leading the activities of conceptual engineering, basic engineering, detailed engineering of projects at the engineering level in the areas of processes, mechanics, instrumentation, electricity, etc. are developed.

Then the knowledge and skills are developed to carry out the activities of construction, mechanical, electrical, instrumental assembly, pre-commissioning, commissioning, hazop and start-up of hydrocarbon plants.

For comprehensive training, an emphasis is placed on the management, selection and application of codes (AAHTO, ACI, AGA, AISC, ANSI, API, ASME, ASTM, AWS, BSI, DNV, EEMUA, IEC, IEEE, ISA, ISO, MSS, NACE, NEMA, NFPA, SAMA, TEMA and UCB) and international standards with specific content for the main global companies.

In the second part of the Master's program in Management in the Oil, Natural Gas and Petrochemical Industry, it begins by touching on important aspects to complete the comprehensive training of the participants, beginning with integrated management systems in the specialties of safety, quality and environment. atmosphere.

Next, aspects of financial administration, economics, corporate finance, managerial strategies, policies and managerial aspects of the hydrocarbons industry in the different countries of the participants are studied in depth.

Skills are also developed in the comprehensive evaluation of projects and specific risk analysis for this exciting area of study. The program presents the necessary characteristics to train professionals with comprehensive and solid training to perform successfully in this area with the current changes and also with the development of new current trends.

The studies and development of skills in the legal, juridical and contractual area in the hydrocarbons industry are especially important, analyzing the legal frameworks according to the regions and countries to complement the evaluation of investment opportunities in new projects.

Finally, case studies are carried out to analyze the strategies and policies of companies and countries, evaluating the technical, economic, financial, safety, environmental results and the image of companies as responsible citizens of the planet.
