Course overview

Petroleum markets in the first part of the 21st century will continue to be impacted by major political, economic, technical and environmental challenges. However, crude oil and natural gas will continue to dominate energy markets well into the 2030s.

This 3-day course is focused on examining the developing petroleum industry trends; both upstream and downstream, that are anticipated over the next 20 years and designed to inform delegates of current facts,
future options, opportunities, risks and likely outcomes over this period.

The course has appeal to attendees from both technical and non-technical backgrounds. However, emphasis is given to the commercial and economic drivers that impact the supply chain in the current market. The key activities, processes and terms are presented in clear and jargon-free language that will enable attendees to gain a rapid understanding of the key functions of the supply chain

The topics are reviewed using PowerPoint presentations, discussions and handout notes that will reinforce
your understanding and knowledge base.
