The Department of Electromechanical Engineering Holds a Scientific Symposium Entitled “Applications of Electromechanical Systems Engineering in the
Oil Industries / Reality and Ambition”
The scientific symposium entitled “Applications of Electromechanical Systems Engineering in the Oil Industries / Reality and Ambition” was held in the Department of Electromechanical Engineering on Monday 19th of March 2018 in the Al-Kindi auditorium. The president of the University of Technology Prof. Dr. Amin Daway Thumir, the head of Electromechanical Engineering Department Asst. Prof. Dr. Hosham Salim Anead, representatives of the Ministry of Oil as well as many heads of departments and academic staff attended this symposium.
The symposium involved one session in which four lectures were delivered. The first one was presented by the Director General of the Oil Pipeline Company, Eng. Ali Jubair Lazim, which entitled "Problems and Obstacles of Work of Oil Equipment". He focused on the problems facing the company. The second one was for the academic member of Department staff, Asst. Prof. Dr. Raheeq Ismaiel Ibrahiem who viewed the role of Electromechanical Engineering in solving the work problems of the Ministry of Oil companies, while the third lecture entitled “The Modern Techniques Used for Cathodic Protection Systems for Pipes and Fuel Tanks”, which was delivered by the academic members of the department staff Asst. Prof. Dr. Jamal Abdul Karim Mohammed and Dr. Manal Kazem Odeh, whereas the fourth one entitled “Mechanical Distortions in the Fuel Transport Pipes” which was delivered by Dr. Aseel Abdul Baqi Abdul Razzq.
The symposium led to several recommendations, the most important one was the establishment of training courses in the field of electromechanical engineering in coordination with the research and development offices of the Ministry of Oil. In addition, overture the Ministry of Oil to submit the problems of oil companies to the Department of Electromechanical Engineering, where the department will help to find solutions for these problems by taking them into consideration in the master and doctoral projects depending on the type of the problem.
