The Laser Geoscience Centre offers an integrated course program with a wide range of taught courses and practical work and provision of world-class teaching and research facilities. Home/About Us
Laser Engineering started about twenty five years ago and her vision is primarily to utilize local resources in solving the intellectual problems in the Nigerian oil and gas industry. As part of her mission, Laser is committed to training young Nigerian graduates to enable them acquire skill that will properly prepare them to work in the industry. We not only enrich the knowledge of the Nigerian graduates on the theory of oil and gas business, but we get them involved in field development studies. Laser trained Nigerian graduates play dominant roles in both oil operating and servicing companies in Nigeria. In 2006, the Nigerian Government announced plans to establish practical institutions that will properly prepare our young secondary school leavers and university graduates. The vision of the government for this program is focused on the development of skills and talents, provision of industrial and practical experience in such areas as engineering construction, oil and gas, information technology, etc, for the nation’s industries. The programme further seeks to increase private sector participation in the provision of Technical and Vocational Education (TVET) and Training Institutions. The Managing Consultant of Laser Engineering and Resources Consultants Limited who is also a Professor of Petroleum and Gas Engineering in the University of Port Harcourt in a bid to fulfill his vision of training young graduates responded and collaborated with the Government in developing the Geoscience curriculum. In 2007, Laser received a license to formally set up our Geoscience Practical School. Laser Engineering and Resources Consultants one of the largest Consultancy firms in Nigeria has confidently established this school as a centre of excellence for Petroleum Geoscience for both Nigerian and worldwide recruitment. Pioneer students started by October 2008 and graduated in the next six months leading to the award of Diploma in Applied Petroleum Geoscience. Laser Petroleum Geoscience Centre has its head office in Port Harcourt, and a branch office in Lagos and Benin. The Laser Petroleum Geoscience Centre is therefore a private, independent, Diploma-awarding institution/ training centre whose mission reflects these core values: Excellence in Scholarship, Dedication to Free Inquiry, Integrity of Character and Commitment to Humanity.
