Master of Advanced LNG Systems Engineering
Course Overview
Delivered by the London School of Oil and Gas Management, the Master of Advanced LNG Systems Engineering is a research-informed senior programme built inside Harold International College of London and calibrated to the working reality of the UK oil, gas and energy sector. Structured as a UK Level 7 postgraduate qualification, typically 1-2 years, the programme runs across 1-2 years and is aligned with UK further and higher education expectations for advanced lng systems engineering inside the midstream, logistics & refining area. Study is available on-campus in central London, online, or by distance learning, with the same weekly seminar structure, the same coursework schedule and the same named programme-tutor support across every mode of study.
By the end of the Master of Advanced LNG Systems Engineering, you will take the senior postgraduate track with confidence and step into articulation into doctoral study or senior corporate placement. The syllabus is built around LNG handling, LNG handling and adjacent topics such as pipeline integrity, using live scenarios from refineries, LNG terminals, midstream pipeline operators, marine oil terminals, petrochemical plants and integrated supply chain teams to sharpen how you read data, brief stakeholders and act inside the operating rhythm of the sector. Every taught unit closes with a reflection task so you can trace your capability growth week by week, and assessment uses research-informed modules and a substantial dissertation, capstone or sponsor consulting project so what you can do is evidenced through practice, not only examined through recall.
Key Features

The LSOGM careers service supports Master of Advanced LNG Systems Engineering students with CV, interview and portfolio guidance calibrated to refineries, LNG terminals, midstream pipeline operators, marine oil terminals, petrochemical plants and integrated supply chain teams. Sessions run across the study window rather than only at graduation, so applications, technical interviews and site-visit preparation are threaded through the programme timeline. Progression is treated as a design outcome of the Master of Advanced LNG Systems Engineering, not an afterthought.
Entry Requirements
- A UK Bachelor degree at 2:2 or above (or international equivalent) in a relevant discipline.
- Relevant work experience considered in place of formal academic qualifications for senior applicants.
- IELTS 6.5 overall (no band below 6.0) for non-native English speakers.
- Two references, normally one academic and one personal or employer.
- Personal statement covering your research or professional interests.
Why Study at LSOGM
The London School of Oil and Gas Management is a specialist division of Harold International College of London teaching in small, tutor-visible cohorts. LSOGM sits within reach of the City's energy trading floors, the offshore expertise of Aberdeen and the North Sea, and one of the world's densest concentrations of oil, gas and energy sector employers, professional bodies and standards organisations.
Every intake, on-campus, online or by distance learning, joins the same weekly seminar structure with named programme-tutor support. Three parallel study modes make LSOGM programmes accessible around work, family or shift patterns in the energy sector. Curricula are reviewed annually against live employer demand, faculty are practising engineers, HSE specialists and energy economists, and students leave with evidenced capability across LNG handling, LNG handling and pipeline integrity. For the Master of Advanced LNG Systems Engineering specifically, that means short connectivity to UK refinery clusters, LNG import terminals and Aberdeen supply-chain hubs.
