KFU has successfully implemented distance learning of specialists of Rosneft and Zarubezhneft

The director of the Center for Advanced Training, Quality Management and Marketing at the Institute of Geology and Petroleum Technologies of Kazan Federal University, Ildus Chukmarov, held the final webinar for students of continuing education programs that have successfully completed their studies.

27 employees of structural divisions of Rosneft PJSC and Zarubezhneft JSC for five days were trained under the programs: Lithological-facies analysis of oil and gas bearing strata, Processing and interpretation of electric and acoustic scanning of wells, Application of global navigation satellite systems (GLONASS / GPS) in geodesy, cartography and navigation ”and“ Extraction of super-viscous oils ”.

Ildus Adgamovich thanked the audience for choosing the Center for Advanced Training, Quality Management and Marketing and invited them to face-to-face programs, when it became possible, spoke about the modern research base of  KFU, about the developments of scientists who must be met, as well as about bonuses that await “regular listeners” Center. In addition, the director of Center  analyzed satisfaction questionnaires that students completed based on the results of training, in which a high level of training was noted.

“A well-thought-out, systematic course that includes several related topics. Despite the distance learning, everything was organized at a decent level, we took a theoretical course in webinars and fixed it on practical tasks. Thanks to the organizers for this course, and the teachers for the good presentation of the material, their willingness to discuss all the issues that arise with us and help in mastering the basics of sequencing stratigraphy! ”;

“I really liked the course, thank you very much. In fact, a very productive week has passed, a lot of new material that needs to be worked out the next day. Thanks again, I hope this is not the last course for me at KFU. Thank!” ;

“I really liked the lecturer Zorina S. O. interestingly reports and has encyclopedic knowledge in subjects, it is a pity there was no opportunity to attend the course live,” the students noted in their profiles.

It is noteworthy that the outstanding researcher Nikolai Alekseevich Golovkinsky, the first professor of geology and founder of the Kazan Geological School, the founder of the study of the Upper Paleozoic in the Volga-Kama basin, introduced the term “facies” into Russian geology and justified the law of facies migration. Now KFU regularly holds research conferences that bear his name.

Recall that the leading teachers of the Institute of Geology and Petroleum Technologies, the Institute of Physics, as well as experts from partner companies – Tatneft PJSC, TNG Group LLC, Director of Oil XXI Century LLC and Director of Eridan LLC took part in the implementation of the programs. “. In addition, a long-time partner of the Center, whose lectures are gaining popularity on the youtube channel – Trimble official representative (USA) Mikhail Karavanov, has joined the lecturers of the program “Application of global navigation satellite systems (GLONASS / GPS) in geodesy, cartography and navigation”. who held a webinar for listeners of the Center.

“An indicator of the quality work of the Center is the new tasks of creating courses and orders. It is gratifying that both companies – Zarubezhneft and Rosneft decided to work with us remotely and to continue training their employees online in our Center. We are already concluding contracts for May and June. A list of programs that will be implemented can be found on our website cdoGEO.ru. Anyone can apply now and join these groups! ”- said Ildus Chukmarov.
