On April 4, 2023, the management of the State Oil Company of the Republic of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) and the delegation led by the rector of China Petroleum University, Professor Chen Feng, held the meeting.
At the meeting, they emphasized that the students of SOCAR's Baku Higher Oil School (BHOS) successfully participated in international competitions organized by China Oil University. Delegations discussed the long-term strategic goals of SOCAR and noted that applying digital and innovative technologies and developing highly qualified staff potential were priority directions.
Within the framework of the meeting, the laboratories were created based on innovative technologies and current educational conditions at BHOS, which is one of the clear examples of the transformation of oil capital into human capital, which makes significant contributions to the strengthening of competitive human capital in the country.
In this context, potential cooperation opportunities in the fields of oil and gas, petrochemical, geology, environment, artificial intelligence, and innovation were considered between the China University of Petroleum, which is one of China's leading higher education institutions and specializes in the field of oil and petrochemicals and SOCAR.
