The tips are general. I'm afraid, there's no past question on it. Just go through your basics. You will be fine.

pls wot abt environmental remote sensing? any tips n past questions too? tnks. tak2tessy@gmail.com

This people should give us date Abeg. I finished my NYSC early this month. I'm stil waiting behind at Abj cos I already put it as my center. had I known it would take this long I would have put Lagos, which is where I based

DSSHQ:
1.There are no recent past questions for the examination in public domain. PTDF has no fixed pattern per se. Questions change always especially for the subject specific areas.The examiners are Professionals. Study smart.
2.The examination is very competitive. Little things matter and can swing the tide in your favour.
3.No option is easy as you think.Focus on your area. The questions are usually simple ( not hard) but can be tricky. Sometimes, the question types can be loop -sided. For example, Petroleum engineering will just focus on thermal enhanced oil recovery methods, Renewables on biofuels, Design of rotating machines on Welding, Environmental engineering on TLVs etc.
4. Most states are very competitive. So people score very high and they do not make it for this reason.
5. Group the various areas into many smaller groups.Then , you can have an idea of where you fall under and the questions you will likely answer.
6.I'm not sure the budget had too much to do with the delay. There's some internal restructuring going on in PTDF. Some people were sacked because of corruption.
7. PhD hopefuls like us need to just be at their best. Very competitive selection process.
8.Pray and ask God to crown your effort with success. Many people need this as you do too. Something has to tilt the balance in your favour.

I hope this helps someone. I compiled these information from some past scholars, members of the internal caucus of ptdf and from people who have attempted the exams previously. Cheers

what will Hse Focus on Please

Nice one. For petroleum engineering questions, last year questions weren't actually thermal enhanced oil recovery so to say, the questions were more of production engineering. Flow patterns in vertical and horizontal pipes (their characteristics, how they are formed and so on), wax precipitation (cloud point, pour point, etc), maybe 3-5 calculation questions(API gravity and so on). About 30+ true or false questions, questions with options (the options look ambiguous but its not). Some questions are exact opposite of another question (so if u miss one, u will likely miss the second one), some questions are set twice (maybe 1or2). In a nutshell, prepare for important parts of PE and at the same do not neglect those seemingly unimportant parts. Those going for Sedimentary basin and evolution make sure you read sedimentary environments and their features, types of basins and their formation maybe tectonic plates too sha. Wish you GOD's best.

what should HSE people read oh

Sorry mate. Don't have for control. Can only guarantee for all last year 60 questions for environmental related
Courses with other questions that have good chance to be out. Also With other past years general questions.
You may not be too bothered about English questions if they are to be set this time out. They are giveaways for a graduate who didn't get his/her degree through the back door. Don't 100% expect English language section this time so u avoid a shocker. May your star guide u. It's worth it
Pls Tunde forward me the past question: mrfridayvictory@gmail.com

@Omojehovah plz, do you have any slight info or inkling about questions on Pipeline engineering?
I don't really know how best I can tell you, but read up on subsea, too. Both are coupled n related discipline. If you can know n understand field development, flow assurance, subsea integrity, offshore operations, decommissioning of pipeline, installation of subsea systems, you will have know problem.

u wont understand bros... they're as tough as if I already have my msc in the course. Please share some links with me if possible. wink
you are right. Most of the questions are designed as what you will study for your masters, except if the question is a general engineering principle for undergraduate that one can easily answer.

If this week passes and we don't hear from PTDF, then it's most likely the test may not hold this month.

study the sun and it's rays, Glance through all renewables, Read about graphs associated with energy management, Read About countries associated with these renewables, Eg : highest coal producer or consumer etc. I'm thinking BP statistical data can also help, you can get it from google.
Thanks bro. I appreciate.

Read previous pages of this thread, say fro page 40+ you'd likely find areas of concentration for last year's test on environmental engineering. I doubt if there is recent past questions available for all to see.
