INTRODUCTION
2

The idea of establishing an Institute of Petroleum Technology at Aligarh Muslim University was
conceived following the visit of His Highness Sheikh Zaid Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, President of UAE who
visited Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh on Jan 01, 1975. A sum of US $ 2 lacs was also contributed
by H.H. Sheikh Zaid for the Institute. In view of the above and realizing the importance of the job
oriented courses and future demand of the country in the area of Petroleum Studies, the University
submitted a proposal for the Establishment of the Petroleum Institute to the University Grants
Commission, Govt. of India, New Delhi. The UGC sanctioned the Establishment of the Institute of
Petroleum Studies & Chemical Engineering in 1983 in phased manner, renamed as Department of
Petroleum Studies. A Grant of Rs. 111.45 lacs (N.R) for building, laboratory facilities, books etc and
Rs. 3.52 Lacs (R) per annum for teaching and laboratory supporting staff was provided. The UGC also
sanctioned a one year Post- graduate Diploma in Petroleum Processing for which teaching staff
consisting of two posts of Professor and two posts of Reader were also sanctioned for running the
above course. Five Posts of Laboratory Supporting Staff were also sanctioned to maintain the proper
laboratories facilities.
The P.G. Diploma in Petroleum Processing course was started with an intake of 10 students from the
session 1984-85. Various laboratories relating to testing and determining the characteristics and
properties of refinery and petrochemicals products, petroleum and petrochemical processing and
other facilities have also been established from the UGC grant.
The P.G Diploma in Petroleum Processing course sanctioned by UGC was upgraded to full – fledged
M.Sc. Engineering in Petroleum Processing from the session 1988-89 to enhance the job
potentialities of the post graduate students and to initiate research work in the area of Petroleum
Processing and Conversion. A Proposal to start another M.Sc. Engineering in Petrochemicals course
was submitted to UGC in 1992. The UGC vide its letter No. F0 5-71 /92 (T-I) dated May 18, 1993
agreed with the above proposal and sanctioned the integration of Petrochemicals course with
existing Petroleum Processing course. The M.Sc. Engineering in Petrochemicals course was
3

started in the Petroleum Institute from the session 1995-96 with an intake of 6 students.
Presently, the following facilities have been created from the grants received from the University
Grants Commission and Sheikh Zaid Donation Fund.
� Crude Evaluation Laboratory
� Petroleum Products Testing Laboratories
� Computer Controlled Process Control laboratory
� Reaction Engineering and High Pressure Laboratory
� Polymer Processing Laboratory
� Instrumental and FIA Analysis Laboratory
� Computational Laboratory
� Research Laboratory
� Workshop, Store and Seminar facilities and
� Some Unit operation experimental facilities in the Department of Chemical Engineering
The University Grants Commission also sanctioned two posts of lecturer in IX plan and six posts of
teaching staff (Professor = 1, Reader = 2, Lecturer = 3) in X plan. Presently there are 10 sanctioned
teaching posts.
The research facilities in the area of Hydrodesulfurization, Heat Transfer Studies to Boiling
Hydrocarbon Liquids and their Mixtures in Vertical tube Thermosiphon Reboiler, Nucleate Boiling of
Hydrocarbon Mixtures on Smooth and Enhanced Surfaces, Studies on Corrosion & its Control for
Petroleum Industries, Kinetics Studies of Hydrogenation and Oxidation Reactions, etc. are also
available.
The Expert Committee appointed by the UGC for the Petroleum Institute has also recommended the
expansion with subsequent starting of the courses in Petroleum Refining / Petrochemical Engineering
and Technology, Polymer Science and Technology, Plastics and Gas Processing and creation of
4

esearch facilities in the Petroleum Processing and Conversion, Polymer Science and Technology,
Polymer Chemistry, Plastics and Organic Synthetic Fertilizers and Hydrocarcking.
Following the directives of the UGC and keeping in view the requirements to develop of our own
technologies and become competitive and to meet the ever-increasing demand of manpower of our
country in the field of Petroleum Refining / Petrochemicals / Gas Processing, a Four year Bachelor of
Technology in Petrochemical Engineering course was introduced in the Petroleum Institute from the
session 1997-98 with an intake of 20 students. The Institute is renamed as Department of Petroleum
Studies in Feb 2000. Presently following courses are running in the Department:
� 4 year B.Tech. (Petrochemical Engineering) Course with an Intake of 25 plus 05 NRI students.
� 2 year M.Tech. (Petroleum Processing & Petrochemical Engineering) Course with an Intake of
16 students
The Department will serve the long felt need of deploying young engineers in Petrobased Industries
and will bridge the gap between academic institutions and industrial requirements. Its courses and
curriculum have been so designed as to enable its products to handle / execute the Industrial Jobs
and Research without difficulty. Our Students are serving premier organizations namely, Reliance
Industries limited, Technip KTI, Duncan Fertilizers, Punj Lloyd, Indian Oil Corporation Ltd, Oil and
Natural Gas Corporation Ltd, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited, M I Swaco, Oswal Chemicals
and Fertilizers Limited, Council of Scientific & Industrial Research, etc.
