Advanced training in "Drilling Techniques and Technology"
The development of the oil and gas industry involves extensive use of drilling for the prospecting, exploration and development of oil and gas fields. Drilling of oil and gas wells should be constantly improved, especially due to the increasing volume of deep and ultra-deep drilling, as well as the growing need to drill vertical, deviated and directional wells. The technology of drilling wells for liquid and gaseous minerals is one of the major disciplines for specialists in the oil and gas industry.
"Drilling technique and technology" is the main direction in oil and gas industry. Improvement of technique and technology of deep drilling, considerable increase of drilling efficiency and decrease of its cost is a serious task for the national economy. The large research institutions of the country, as well as scientific personnel of the leading universities are involved in its solution. The research laboratories of the Yagshigeldy Kakaev International Oil and Gas of University are searching for the most perfect ways of drilling wells in different conditions.
The success of these plans requires that drilling engineers not only be well versed in the theoretical aspects of deep drilling, but also be able to confidently conduct engineering calculations related to drilling technology. The latter is the focus of this continuing education course.

A dosimetrist is a specialist in measuring the degree of contamination of surfaces and spaces by radioactive atoms. Today, the requirements for the dosimetrist profession are much higher than a few years ago. Along with knowledge of instruments and the ability to use them, the specialist must be fluent in computer technology. The specialist takes an active part in scientific research works, monitoring of the environment, industrial and residential objects, and performs measurements of high-intensity radiation fields.
With the help of special dosimetric equipment he can check the degree of contamination of various surfaces and objects (for example, clothes, instruments), determine the strength of radiation, its type, the size of the radiation dose.
His responsibilities include various measures for radiation safety and protection of workplaces. Therefore, he must control the technology of all works, which are related to radiation, check the used equipment, its compliance with standards and safety norms. The worker is also engaged in maintenance of the equipment entrusted to him and, if necessary, learns how to work with new devices.
The dosimetrist also works with documentation. He needs to prepare analytical reports based on the received inspection results, draw diagrams, maps, tables and graphs.
Dosimetric technician performs measurements of varying complexity on all types of ionizing radiation using various equipment, assesses the effectiveness of biological protection. The specialist must have knowledge in the field of radiology, modern dosimetric equipment, radiation safety.
Advanced training in "Chemical Technology of Oil and Gas Processing"
Oil and gas are of particular importance in the development of the national economy and, along with the products of their processing, are not only high-caloric fuel, but also an extremely valuable raw material for the chemical industry.
The development of the oil and gas processing, gas chemical and petrochemical industry in our country requires the training of highly qualified engineers in the chemical industry.

Advanced training in the direction of "Automation of technological processes and production"
Automation is a branch of science and technology that deals with the management and control of various processes that take place without direct human involvement.
Automation is a technological process without which no company can do without. Automation serves to simplify the management of processes, to reduce the cost of production and to facilitate working labor in the enterprise. The development of automation has mainly contributed to scientific and technological development and determined its main directions. Factors in the growth of automation include the need to expand production and improve product quality, as well as the improvement of human labor. Automated processes do not stand still, they are improved every year, i.e. they are automated.
A specialist in automation of production and technological processes is in demand both in the petrochemical industry and in various enterprises where there are automated production systems. The functional duties of a specialist in automation of technological processes and production include the basics of automation of production processes, methods of analysis of automatic control systems, principles of operation and design of control and measuring instruments and automatic controllers, methods of regulation of automated objects and automation schemes of the main technological processes of oil refining and petrochemical industry.
Specialists in automation and mechanization of production processes are in high demand on the labor market. They need to be familiar with the very structure of the enterprise where they work. In order to work in accordance with the rules of operation of mechanisms, a specialist must know the technology of production of enterprise products, the requirements of development and patent research. Naturally, the work of a specialist of this type of employment cannot take place without computing, communication and communication facilities. Before introducing new means of automation and mechanization into production, he studies its economic efficiency. The field of automation and mechanization of production processes does not stand still, but is constantly evolving. The best domestic and foreign experience is constantly reinforced by new knowledge and developments.
Students of the course "Automation of technological processes and production" will study the variety of connections between individual processes in modern production and their clear sequence. The basic concepts of continuous and batch production, as well as the high speed of some operations, which can significantly reduce the time for one operation after another, will be obtained.
As a result of the development of technology in some branches of the national economy there are very harmful processes (radioactive radiation, electromagnetic radiation, ultrasonic waves, etc.). That is why there is a condition of human isolation from such processes. Trainees of the course "Automation of technological processes and production" are trained to control such processes and monitor their course.
Advanced training in the direction of "Energy"
Electricity is the basis for the development of all sectors of our economy.

The President of Turkmenistan has identified the development of the energy industry as one of the important directions of the economic strategy of our Fatherland in the era of the Renaissance of a new era of a powerful state.
Currently, the world is paying special attention to the use of alternative energy sources and the development of a "green" economy. The global community is striving to switch to green energy technologies, and as a result, significant changes have recently taken place in the energy sphere.
Low-carbon alternatives such as wind and solar energy have reached price levels at which they are economically competitive in the marketplace. Turkmenistan has great opportunities in this regard.
Intensive development of the fuel and energy complex in Turkmenistan is considered a priority of state policy. In the sphere of energy, the state policy is aimed at ensuring energy independence and security, increasing energy efficiency and reducing the negative impact of energy on the environment. In order to successfully solve these tasks important work is carried out to introduce and develop new technologies based on achievements of science and ensuring ecologically clean energy, its safety, convenient structure of energy balance, introduction of advanced methods and principles of energy saving management, energy efficiency of production and energy resources, including electricity consumption. The state program provides for scientific research and recommendations on energy efficiency for institutions and enterprises in the energy, oil and gas and other sectors of the country's economy.
That's why the Energy program includes such areas as power quality management, hydrogen energy, and energy conservation in oil and gas production.
