1 HOUSTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE (NORTHEAST CAMPUS) MISSION STATEMENT: Houston Community College will be the most relevant community college in the country. We will be the opportunity institution for every student we serve essential to our community s success. WELCOME: I welcome each of you to a semester of intricate study based upon an industry and data- related inquiry of the salient and functional features of the oil and gas industry. At the end of this course, each student will have a broader view of this industry. Scholarship and class participation in all of its aspects is the key and that is what will be expected. There is no recording of classes either audio or video without consent of instructor or the Disability Services Office. Course Description: A study of the petroleum industry will be undertaken from the data management perspective. A review of current knowledge and technical aspects of the oil and gas industry will be reviewed with regard to the various operational functionalities of Well Completions under various wellbore conditions. Prerequisites: PTRT 1470; Microsoft Office suite will be used for Projects and class presentations. Students are expected to be able to use Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. Course Goals: Students will be able to understand the basic tools and terminology used in upstream operations. Students will work in teams to gather 1

2 facts and information on key data used to deliver projects during exploration and production. Students are expected to make use of the information gathered in teams and class to comprehend text book and current event subjects relevant to well completions. Students will be able to understand the technical aspects and the process of completing oil and gas well from a systematic and pragmatically point of view, contribute responsibly in the industry, college, on work teams in order to perform the designated and various tasks needed in the oil and gas industry.. Students will be able to identify key terminology and units for gathering data in the field for upstream activities. Instructor Information: Instructor: Edna Ouko- Lehnert Phone Number: edna.oukolehnert@hccs.edu Course schedule: Tuesday 5:00PM 7:00PM Office Hours: By appointment only Instructors Biography: Refer to LinkedIn.

5 Course Requirements and Grading Policy: All students are required to be on time for lectures and highly encouraged and challenged to participate during lectures in the course. Letter Grade A Test/Project Score % B % C % D % F 0-59 % Testing & Projects: Make- UP Policy: Each test given, whether a pop quiz or unit exam will have a score of 100 points and will be assigned a grade based on the student s score as indicated above. Students are advised to attend each and every examination on time so as to afford themselves ample time for completion. All Exams not pop quizzes- shall count for 60% of the Student s grade. Team and Individual Projects shall count for 30% of the Student s grade. Quizzes shall count for 10% of the Student s grade. Exam questions will come directly from the team projects, quizzes and lectures. No make- up quizzes, projects or tests will be allowed. Student Survey: Evaluation for Greater Learning Student Survey System 5

6 At Houston Community College, professors believe that thoughtful student feedback is necessary to improve teaching and learning. During a designated time, you will be asked to answer a short online survey of research- based questions related to instruction. The anonymous results of the survey will be made available to your professor and division chair for continual improvement of instruction. Look for the survey as part of the Houston Community College Student System online near the end of the term. Projects, Assignments Portfolios, Service Learning Internships, etc. A minimum of three (individual) Projects (100 Points each) will be assigned during this semester. Team projects are assigned at least once a month. 6
