This is a good prerequisite and a basis for the training of specialists in the educational and scientific degree of \u00a0\u201cDoctor\u201d in the scientific course of studies in <em>D<\/em><em>rilling <\/em><em>Equipment<\/em><em> and <\/em><em>T<\/em><em>echnology<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The training in the doctoral programme is conducted in accordance with the contemporary trends in the development of science and its applications in practice.<\/p>\n<p>Research can be carried out in various fields, such as: drilling for conventional and shale oil and gas; prospect and hydro-geological drilling; geo-technical holes; inclined and directional drilling, as well as in the relevant technologies in these fields, such as: modes of drilling; flushing and cementing of boreholes and wells; large-diameter drilling; repair of salt wells; extraction; directional diamond drilling; development of and study of the performance of drilling equipment, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Lecturers from the department have specialised and lectured at prestigious universities abroad, like the Norwegian University of Science and Technology &#8211; the Department of Petroleum Engineering and Applied Geophysics; Universidad Internacional Men\u00e9ndez Pelayo &#8211; Santander, Spain, etc. The department has traditionally had close connections with related universities in the former socialist countries, and although some of those declined after the changes, they are now slowly but steadily being re-established.<\/p>\n<p>The department conducts research funded by the University of Mining and Geology and this makes it possible to enrich the research and laboratory base.<\/p>\n<p>In view of the above, the training of doctoral students is comprehensive and is an integral part of the entire educational and research process in the department.<\/p>\n<p>The objectives and tasks of the education in the Department of Drilling, Extraction, and Transport Oil and Gas are to offer training to specialists in the scientific course of study in <em>D<\/em><em>rilling <\/em><em>Equipment<\/em><em> and <\/em><em>T<\/em><em>echnology<\/em> in the educational and scientific degree of \u00a0\u201cDoctor\u201d in vocational field 5.8.
