Scientific Trip to the KAR Oil Refinery

Third-year students undertaking the Refining and Corrosion Engineering PTR 322 Course at the Department of Petroleum & Mining Engineering for the academic year 2022-2023, engaged in a site visit to KAR Oil Refinery, located at Kawergosk (west of Erbil City) on December 4th, 2022. The trip was supervised and guided by Assist. Prof. Ziyad Jamil, and Research Assistants Omer Azad, Ibrahim Fatih, Esra Sami and Shnyar Hussein. The visit started at 9 AM and ended around 4 PM.

Students were guided to see different refining units and departments, including fractionation columns, water treatment plants, boiler house and utility departments, reforming units, central control, and safety inspections. During the site visit, students were able to take notes to help them relate to their theoretical course. The professionals and administrators of the refinery greatly supported the visit and assisted our staff and students throughout the trip. They truly offered their full support to Tishk International University and encouraged future collaborations.
