Five IFP School students won the Imperial Barrel Award (IBA) international competition on June 5 and 6.
Open to geoscience students from around the world, this annual competition has been organized since 2007 by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG).
Due to the current health situation, the final competition, which was traditionally held in Houston, was organized virtually.
The team composed of Carolina Castaño Uribe (Colombia), Claire Demangeot (France), Manuella Mafia (Brazil), Monica Stancu (Romania) and Julien Terrier (France), all students of the Petroleum Geosciences program, competed against 11 prestigious universities.
King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals and the University of Calgary came in second and third respectively.
In total, more than 120 universities from all over the world took part in the competition.
