Engineers whose defining technological contribution is the extraction, recovery or transport of oil and natural gas: drilling technology, well design and reservoir recovery methods, and the pipelines and processing infrastructure that move extracted petroleum to refining. Belongs here: engineers credited with a specific drilling, extraction or recovery method. Does not belong here: the refining chemistry that turns crude petroleum into a finished product, grouped under Chemical Engineering, or general mechanical equipment adapted to oilfield use without a petroleum-specific design contribution.
