Organised by the SPE UiTM Student Chapter (SPE UiTM SC), the visit aims to prepare future engineers for global industry demands. The Bachelor of Oil and Gas Engineering (Hons) students are exploring cutting-edge developments in digitalisation, artificial intelligence, and decarbonisation. These 'Future Tech' domains form a key focus of the conference, giving attendees insight into the sector's evolving landscape.
Beyond technical knowledge, the students are networking with professionals from leading energy companies. These interactions help them understand the skills required to thrive in the field. A student representative later noted that the experience had widened their industry perspective and motivated them to enhance their abilities. UiTM's involvement in OTC Asia underscores its dedication to graduate employability. By engaging with real-world challenges, the SPE UiTM Student Chapter seeks to produce engineers who are ready to tackle global energy issues. The initiative aligns with the university's broader goal of bridging academic learning with industry needs.
The conference provides students with practical exposure to offshore innovations and professional networks. Their participation reflects UiTM's ongoing efforts to equip graduates with relevant skills for the energy sector. The experience is expected to shape their readiness for future careers in engineering.
