significant influence on Energy Industry of the XX.

Disciplines that were studied, such as

hydraulics, thermodynamics, electrical engineering, mechanics, machinery and
equipment of oil and gas industry are the key on the way of understanding the Energy &
Resources sector. Through a learning process was formed the concept of the pipeline
system as a whole: how to design, build and operate compressor and pump stations,
tank farms, complex equipment of offshore and onshore pipelines.
By the completion of the bachelor degree I had a clear understanding of that the
progress in energy industry does not stand still: growing demand for increasing energy
efficiency, environmental and industrial safety, sustainability trend forces companies to
optimize their production process. XX oil and gas industry and energy sector in many
aspects in need of modernization. I would be glad to apply my knowledge gained from
studying towards improving the state of the energy industry.
Therefore, in order to increase my knowledge in concepts, methods and techniques of
analyzing the state of structures, systems and components; monitoring of functional
performance and structural integrity, I decided to apply for the Master's programme
“XX” at XY University. Learning outcomes for technical diagnostics and non-destructive
testing methods, resource-saving technologies are highly relevant for my future career.
The Master's Programme in Energy Systems indispensable complements and builds
upon the previously acquired knowledge that can be applied in energy efficiency
projects in my future career.
As a minor specialization I am planning on choosing the Bio-Energy Systems - an
excellent alternative to hydrocarbons in regions remote from the oil and gas fields and in
which sustainable fuel solutions are preferred.
Thus, I believe that all the combination of studies, especially bio-energy technology
solutions and turbomachinery in renewable energy, give me the skillset to think
differently about how to find solutions to contemporary problems and issues in Energy
& Resources sector.

During my studentship I did an internship at the XY - one of the leading XX company

providing construction of gas and oil pipelines, underground gas storage facilities,
compressor stations and delivery measuring stations. At the end of the internship I had a
clear view of the innovative technological solutions applied in the construction of the
"XY" compressor station - the starting point of the "XX" gas pipeline. This particular
internship helped me reinforce my teamwork skills and also have a practical engineering
experience.

For the last two years I have been attending the lectures organized by the international
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE). They usually take place in the XY University and
XX, spoken languages are English and XX. It is a kind of platform for international
experience exchange in solving problems of energy sector. Such type of lectures played
a major role in developing my research interests, helped to be aware of the latest high-
technology solutions.
It is hard to achieve my career goal without international experience since most high
technology companies are multinational. I am deeply convinced of that the courses of
this program match perfectly with my professional and personal projects and academic
expectations. I look forward to joining the Master`s Programme in Energy Systems in
order to prove my abilities and gain new skills.

Thank you for considering my application.

Yours faithfully,

XX.
