Open Petroleum Education Network

The Open Petroleum Education Network (OPEN®) is entering its 15th year of service to the oil and natural gas industry; by providing instructors at schools all around the globe with FREE access to PetroEd’s eLearning courses covering oilfield topics, we’re helping educators by offloading the basics to computer-based instruction…and we sincerely appreciate Colorado School of Mines’ comments!

Dear Greg, On behalf of the Colorado School of Mines, the Petroleum Engineering Department, and the students, assistants, and faculty of the PEGN 311 class, thank you.

  • Real time translator plugins

 

Solutions such as STARLINK and AST SpaceMobile will make online learning available around the planet

 

  • Reduce ‘spotty’ problem
