ABOUT THIS TRAINING COURSE This 5 full-day training course looks at the setup of economic analysis cases, including the estimation of recoverable reserves, production profiles, commodity prices, and project costs - CAPEX, OPEX, taxes, royalties, transportation, depreciation, before-tax (BTAX) cash-flow, after-tax (ATAX) cash-flow and international fiscal regimes (production sharing agreement and concessionary system). The course begins from the basic required parameters of inflation, interest and time value of money. These concepts are then transformed into profitability indicators. Last but not the least, the profitability indicators are then used to make investment decisions. The emphasis of this course is to bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and their practical limitations. The participants will be able to appreciate the amount of information that they never thought of. Another emphasis of this course is also on the use of Excel's financial functions. This understanding is very critical when it comes to building economic cash-flow models. Over the years, we have seen that participants really struggle with using the Excel functions correctly and this leads to mistakes that can be easily avoided. In each session, multiple choice problems are provided to participants to reinforce their understanding of the concepts covered in the course. Many quick or tips not widely known, are also shared with the participants. The concepts covered in this course are not restricted to downstream, upstream or petrochemical projects. These concepts can be used to evaluate any type of investment under consideration. Participants will require access to computers/laptops with Excel to solve problems during the course. Training Objectives Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to fully understand the gas market dynamics and Investment Evaluation. They will be able to: * Learn how to reduce exposure and mitigate risks in projects by handling uncertainty * Clarify concepts such as time value of money, cash-flow models, capital budgeting, IRR, NPV, income producing investments * Maximise the return on investments through good decision-making processes based on the commercial viability of projects * Improve their decision process, investment and opportunity analysis * Acquire the hands-on experience in building their own economic evaluation models and solving case study-based examples   Target Audience The following oil & gas company personnel will benefit from the knowledge shared in this course: * Facilities and Planning engineers * Project and procurement personnel * Oil & gas engineers * Geologists * Financial Analysts * Commercial managers * Economists * Government officials * Business advisors * Asset managers * E&P managers * Product and business development personnel   Course Level * Basic or Foundation Training Methods     Organisational Impact     Trainer Your expert course leader is a globally recognised subject matter expert in petroleum/project economics and international gas market analysis. He is a recipient of the 2021 Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) International Management Award, an award that recognises individuals who make significant technical and professional contributions to the petroleum engineering profession and to the worldwide oil and gas industry.

ABOUT THIS TRAINING COURSE This separately bookable 3 full-day course is not designed to skill Oil & Gas engineers to be accountants, but to give the participants the confidence and ability to communicate with accountants and finance managers and to improve their own financial decision making. For technical professionals, a high level of single subject matter expertise is no longer sufficient for superior management performance. Oil & Gas technical professionals who wish to succeed in the resources industry are required to develop skills beyond their core functional knowledge. An understanding of financial information and management, and an awareness of the economic theory that drives value creation, are an integral part of the managers required suite of skills. This course can also be offered through Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) format. Training Objectives Workshop A: Finance for Non-Finance for Oil & Gas Professionals Attend this industry specific course and benefit from the following: * Demystify financial jargon and fully interpret financial statements * Understand Balance Sheets and Profit & Loss statements of Oil & Gas companies * Discover the crucial distinction between cash flow and profit * Understand how to make correct investment decisions using Net present Value and Internal Rate of Return * Interpret oil and gas company financial reports using ratio analysis * Learn the difference between cash costs and full costing of energy products * Learn how to manage working capital for increased shareholder value Workshop B: Petroleum Fiscal Regimes and Applied Finance for Oil & Gas Industry Professionals Attend this advanced Training course to enhance your financial acumen from the following: * Build and compare cash flow based models of both production sharing contract projects and royalty regime projects * Gain an awareness of the different valuation methods for producing properties and undeveloped acreage * Learn the industry specific accounting issues that apply when interpreting oil and gas company financial statements * Understand how the physical characteristics of energy assets (e.g. reserves, reservoir quality) are translated into project valuations * Learn how the investment analysts value oil and gas stocks and make buy/sell recommendations Target Audience This course is specifically designed for those with a non-finance background training from the Oil & Gas sector and requires only basic mathematical ability as a pre-requisite. It is presented in a manner that reduces the jargon to basic principles and applies them to numerous real-life examples. This course has been researched and developed for Managers, Superintendents, Supervisors, Engineers, Planners, Lawyers, Marketers, Team Leaders and Project Coordinators in the technical and non-technical departments in the Oil and Gas industry.
