Informative Essay

(Before you read the instructor) write about my major which is Petroleum engineer working in Production and operation gathering center. The main job is to control and observe the oil, water and gas levels in each tank and unit.
Task: For this first assignment, you will compose a 3 1/2 -4 page researched essay that explains a current trend in your field. You should not merely summarize or tell me what you already know about the field but rather use this as an opportunity to research and find out something new about what is happening in your field at the present moment. Topics can range from developments in technology to new regulations or standards.

Papers should be informative but written so that a general audience may understand the material. Writing for a targeted audience is an important requirement for this assignment. One of your goals then should be to present the information in such a way that someone outside of your field can still understand the points you’re trying to make. In writing about and for a technological field, it is imperative that you try to avoid jargon or confusing, esoteric, language that would make you lose your audience, instead of grasping and maintaining their attention. For this reason, you might need to pace your discussions in such a way that you can take the time to fully explain or break down various concepts that may be virtually unknown or confusing for someone reading your paper.

References: You will need 3 sources for this assignment. These references should be in the form of scholarly, peer reviewed sources, which means that these articles have appeared in academic based journals and not on general websites like those commonly found on sites ending in “.com” Citations and Works cited entries must follow MLA guidelines. I will provide links to the Purdue Owl and reference pages to help you with these portions of the paper. Generally, when integrating quotations or paraphrased material from these sources, you should make sure that your readers know from where you are quoting, quote it directly or paraphrase, and then include the correct citation information in the parentheses. Even paraphrased material must include a citation! Your essay should demonstrate a balance between your own words/thoughts and the quoted material from references. Because this essay will cover a current trend in your field, your references should be recent in order to better support your topic.
