Abstract
Ethical practices in petroleum engineering are important to both improving the public perception of our industry and preserving our individual integrity. This seminar will include an introduction to concepts and guidelines for professional ethics and a discussion of real examples of some ethical challenges, e.g. potential conflicts of interest, limitations in technical competence, and conflicts between professional judgement and economic or political forces, that arise in the practice of petroleum engineering. Participants will be credited with 1 PDH to fulfill the annual requirement for continuing education on ethics for registered professional engineers.
