Aim To test the knowledge and understanding of various
manufacturing technologies on production of
petrochemical compounds and the student with their
presentation and innovative skills in dissemination of
theoretical & simulated design calculations of various
unit operations used in petroleum industry and overall
production process of petroleum industries.
Objective Comprehensive understanding of various chemical
process and technology related to petrochemical
industry
Critical understanding on production of various
petrochemicals.
General Instructions:
Seminar topics are given based on their mutual interest and covering the entire knowledge
of Petrochemical Industry as well as unit operations with emphasis on safety, efficiency and
economics. Students are encouraged to visit the Petrochemical plants in Sultanate of Oman
and check the new technologies/methods used by the industries. After selection of the
presentation topic the student can inform the same to the tutor before the deadline. The
schedule of presentation will be announced in the blackboard and student must present the
topic as per the given schedule. The duration of presentation is about 10 minutes and
additional 5 minute can be devoted for interaction with the module leader and their peers.

Plagiarism
It is important to understand what plagiarism is and how it can be avoided.
"Unacknowledged copying from published sources (including the internet) or
incomplete referencing".
The following also constitute plagiarism:
• Copying sections of work from a friend/colleague.
• Having a friend/family member dictate something to you.
• Copying and pasting from the internet without citing the source.
• Copying directly from a study text quotation without citing the source.
Quotations
When using quotations from books, websites or journal articles you should cite the author
and the year of publication then use the quote in quotation marks.
Paraphrasing
Paraphrasing is where you encapsulate another person's original idea, argument or
conclusion in your own words. It is still necessary to attribute those ideas to the author, and
you can do this by using the formatting outlined above for direct quotations, taking care to
include the author's surname and the year of publication.
Collaboration
We acknowledge that you may undertake joint study with colleagues or as part of a formal
training programme. However, working with another person to write assignments is not
acceptable. Your answers must be your own and in your own words.
Referencing
Harvard Referencing (CCE Style) First Edition 2013 should be followed for both in-text and
listing references. This downloadable document can be found in our CCE portal at:
