India's Hydrocarbon Outlook – 2022-2023

189 DGH: 3 DECADES OF UNLOCKING INDIA'S HYDROCARBON POTENTIAL namely Utkal University, Vani Vihar and Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology, Sarang participated in this summer internship program. Throughout the course, these students exhibited a high degree of interactivity. Their proclivity for inquiry prompted them to pose numerous inquiries during the training program, to which the instructors provided comprehensive and satisfactory responses. 2. Winter Internship Programme: In a similar fashion to that of the summer internship, Winter Internship Programme for six (06) students of MITWPU, Pune and one (01) student of Utkal University, Vani Vihar, Odisha was organized by SDC team at Bhubaneswar office, Odisha. Spanning approximately for one month i.e. from 26th Dec’ 2022 to 20th Jan’ 2023, the objective of this training program was to give an overview of roles and responsibility of DGH in exploration and production of Oil and Gas business. Further to that, students were also taught thoroughly about the life cycle of Oil & Gas exploration and production covering the topics viz. seismic, types of logs, well correlation, formation evaluation, reservoir characterization, pressure transient analysis, petroleum economics, PRMS guideline etc. Despite the smaller cohort size compared to the previous internship program, the students in this training program were able to achieve a highly targeted educational experience, thanks to the longer duration and more intimate class sizes. A comprehensive evaluation of the program was conducted by soliciting feedback from all participants to gauge the degree to which the SDC, Bhubaneswar met the students' expectations. This feedback is invaluable to the SDC and will contribute to the success of future training programs. It was heartening to observe a national-level representation of students, and the overwhelmingly positive response from diverse academic sectors. This feedback undoubtedly boosts morale and encourages the implementation of additional training programs in the future. During the FY 2022-23, two (02) training programs were successfully organized for the students at various universities.
