PETRONAS Technology University to hold professional training for Turkmen teachers and students

From 19 to 22 October, professional development courses are being held online for students and young teachers of the Faculty of Energy and Engineering Facilities at the Yagshygeldi Kakayev International University of Oil and Gas in Turkmenistan. The courses are led by a professor from PETRONAS Technology University in Malaysia.

The sessions, dedicated to the topic "Analysis of the Energy System", give participants detailed and up-to-date information on modern innovative technologies and new methods used in the field. Upon completion, participants will receive special certificates from PETRONAS Technology University. The training is being held within the framework of a memorandum of understanding signed by the university, PETRONAS Carigali (Turkmenistan) Sdn Bhd and PETRONAS Technology University.

The parties have cooperated effectively in science and education for several years under this document. Students and young teachers from Turkmen higher education institutions complete summer training and production internships at PETRONAS Technology University each year. For the 2026–2027 academic year, a series of multi-stage courses, both remote and in person, is planned under the guidance of PETRONAS professors. They will cover oil and gas sector development, artificial intelligence, chemistry and gas processing.
