The Head of the Department:
Prof. Lidia Hrnčević, PhD

The areas of scientific and professional interest of the employees of the Department of Petroleum and Gas Engineering and Energy are designing, manufacturing and equipping wells; production, processing, transportation and storage of petroleum and gas; development of hydrocarbon deposits and geothermal deposits; and environmental protection in oil mining and energy. In the period from 2021-2022, members of the Department of Petroleum and Gas Engineering and Energy participated in five (5) scientific research projects, one (1) of which was an international scientific research project financed by the European Union's Horizon 2020 program ("STRATEGY CCUS - Strategic planning of regions and territories in Europe for low-carbon energy and industry through CCUS", conducted by Prof. Domagoj Vulin, PhD), while the other four (4) were financed by research support from the University of Zagreb: „Mogućnost popunjavanja i zatvaranja duboke bušotine u koju su trajno odloženi spremnici s istrošenim nuklearnim gorivom i visokoradioaktivnim otpadom“ (in English: "The possibility of filling and closing deep wells containing permanently disposed reservoirs with spent nuclear fuel and highly radioactive waste") (conducted by Prof. Nediljka Gaurina-Međimurec, PhD), „Istraživanje termogeoloških aspekata pohrane sunčeve toplinske energije u stijensku masu kao oblik regeneracije bušotinskog polja u sustavima s dizalicama topline“ (in English: "Investigation of the thermogeological aspects of solar thermal energy storage in a rock mass as a form of well field regeneration in systems with heat pumps") (conducted by Prof. Tomislav Kurevija, PhD), „Uvođenje Pametnih Mjernih Sustava za praćenje potrošnje plina u Hrvatskoj“ (in English: "Introduction of Smart Metering Systems for monitoring gas consumption in Croatia") (conducted by Prof. Daria Karasalihović Sedlar, PhD) and „PRImjena NOvih metoda u analizi i reinterpretaciji TEstova porasta tlaka u bušotinama konvencionalnih i nekonvencionalnih ležišta“ (in English: "The application of new methods in the analysis and reinterpretation of increased build-up tests in wells with conventional and unconventional reservoirs") (conducted by Assist. Prof. Sonja Koščak Kolin, PhD).

During the academic year 2021/2022, the Department's activities related to changes in teaching programs and the introduction of graduate studies in English continued. Thus, in 2022, after the successfully completed accreditation, a permit was obtained to perform the graduate study of Petroleum and Geoenergy Engineering and Management, which will be conducted in English starting in the academic year 2022/2023, and the new undergraduate study Petroleum and Geoenergy Engineering as well as the graduate study Petroleum and Geoenergy Engineering and Management have been entered into the accreditation process. Members of the Department have published their works in domestic and international scientific publications and presented them at international and domestic scientific and professional conferences. In June 2022, the Department organized a two-week Petroleum Engineering Summer School (PESS), (conducted by Prof. Daria Karasalihović Sedlar, PhD) in cooperation with the Inter University Center Dubrovnik (IUC). In the first week of the PESS (interactive seminars WS 51A and WS 51B) courses were held on LNG & Gas Market Flexibility and Emission Management – methane measuring & mitigation, carbon capture, utilization & storage, while in the second week (interactive seminar WS 52), courses were held on Geothermal development – geological potential, well planning, well construction, reservoir engineering, production utilization, legal and economic aspects. As in previous years, recognized scientists and experts from this country and abroad took part in the PESS as lecturers, in addition to members of the Department. During the academic year 2021/2022, the Department also cooperated with numerous economic entities and state institutions through the creation of expert reports and studies. Also, significant cooperation was achieved with various higher education institutions in the Republic of Croatia and abroad. In the past academic year, two Doctoral Theses, 29 Master's Theses and 19 Final Works were defended at the Department.
