Program description
This training is essential to preparing you for the significant transition from conventional emissions-controlled liquefied natural gas to cleaner and more sustainable energy vectors like hydrogen and ammonia. By acquiring in-depth knowledge and comprehension of fundamental concepts such as energy export vectors, the capacity to evaluate environmental and energy-efficient impacts, and the ability to create strategic energy export plans, you will be prepared to close the gap between conventional energy export techniques and the burgeoning sustainable energy vectors of the future after graduation.
You will gain knowledge of three important interdisciplinary interfaces: low-emissions energy generation, subsurface reservoir extraction and sequestration, and economics and management.
In order to ensure that you graduate with the adaptability to handle a dynamic and complex sector, this course aims to give you the expertise to bridge the gap between traditional and emergent energy export practices.
