Studying Master's degree will help me to acquire the knowledge and skills that are appropriate to the oil industry's demanded level.

I possess a necessary qualification to pursue Petroleum Engineering at a higher level. [university] has equipped me with the foundations in Well, Reservoir, and Production Engineering in addition to Petroleum Geology. Especially, by accomplishing my thesis work in reservoir performance and simulation studies I have enhanced knowledge in Reservoir Engineering. The thesis work has allowed me to get better acquainted with Eclipse 100 Black Oil simulator tool which is the main tool in reservoir performance analysis. The quality of Petroleum Engineering courses taught at the [university] is substantiated by accreditation from IChemE obtained this year.

The special role that has played in my decision to become a petroleum engineer is my family. My grandfather was a petroleum geologist. He was a one of the few experienced geologists who gave a start to the exploration and development of many oilfields in western [region] during the growth of the oil industry in [country]. My father followed the same path as well as my uncle. He has more than 35 years of experience as a petroleum geologist in oilfield and acts as a mentor for me giving full-fledged answers to my curious questions about the oil industry. The achievements and impact that my family left on the oil industry of [country] me a feeling of proud for my family, and stimulus to further contribute to the prosperity of my motherland.

The work as a petroleum engineer provides with an excellent opportunity to pursue career in different areas.

Being exposed to such work opportunities petroleum engineer can be a versatile asset to an employer. Also the work in the oil industry is commensurate to the high rewarding salary. The social package provided includes broader opportunities available. On top of that , the labor market in oil sector experiences high demand for petroleum engineers within 10-20 years. Deloitte recently declared that about 70% of the company will be actively recruiting young specialists to replace retiring older generation in nearby future. The demand for young specialists like me will grow and there will be no problem with finding the job that suits my career goals. My goal for nearby future is to obtain necessary qualifications and expertise to pursue a career in oil industry, and I hope that [university] will become the starting point of my bright career as a petroleum engineer.

"Determinacy" isn't the correct word to be used in the first sentence, given the context. Try "Determination", or a synonym.

is state economics(' ) thrust and its locomotive.

For that reason I have decided to pursue Petroleum Engineering at a top-level (top level what? ) applying for a Master's degree at [university] - IMO, splitting this into two would make the essay look neater.

Especially,(<- Comma Splice ) by accomplishing my thesis work in reservoir performance and simulation studies (Add a comma here ) I have enhanced knowledge in Reservoir Engineering.

Being exposed to such work opportunities(, a ) petroleum engineer can be a versatile asset to an employer.

Correct these grammatical mistakes. I like how you used your family background as a motivation for your aspirations. But since this is a graduate essay, the effect of this essay can probably augmented by describing some of your work and research experiences (With an example, if possible), and how those experiences added to your motivation. However, that is merely my opinion.
