Aim & Scope
The Journal of Petroleum, Fossil Fuels, and Energy Resources is dedicated to advancing research on petroleum systems, fossil fuel utilisation, and energy management. It provides a platform for interdisciplinary work connecting geology, engineering, chemistry, economics, and environmental studies.
We welcome submissions that address fundamental science, applied engineering, industrial practices, or policy considerations within the fossil fuel and energy resource domains.
