| Course Objectives |
1.Having student to grab the basic properties and behavior of natural gases and its constituents.
2.Providing the conceptual and mathematical infrastructure required in engineering calculations, performed in gas reserve estimates and in the production, storage and transport of natural gas;
3.Teaching methods and giving applications for the solution of common engineering problems, met through the stages of natural gas flow from reservoir to its distribution to the consumer.
