From petroleum engineer to liquid fuel engineer
17 of the 28 essential skills of a liquid fuel engineer are already essential for a petroleum engineer — about 61% of the job, before you learn anything new. It is the closest move from petroleum engineer in the whole taxonomy.
These numbers compare two occupations, not you and a job. What you personally already cover depends on what you have actually done.

What a liquid fuel engineer does
Liquid fuel engineers evaluate liquid fuel extraction sites. They design and develop methods for extracting liquid fuels from underneath the earth surface, these fuels include petroleums, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, non-petroleum fossil fuels, biodiesel and alcohols. They maximise the recovery of hydrocarbon at a minimum cost, pursuing minimal impact on the environment.
