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.

About this VILT Tripod can be used in any area of business where the organisation has a management system in place to prevent unwanted events e.g., health, safety, environment, quality, security, productivity, project management, and many more Tripod Beta is one of several tools based on Tripod's fundamental principles. Tripod Beta is based on proven theories, man years of academic research, and testing in the workplace. The Swiss Cheese Model originated from this work. Features of the methodology are: 1) the Tripod Beta diagram; it provides an easy-to-read summary of the entire investigation on a single page, 2) it accommodates deficiencies in leadership and worker participation, 3) it accommodates deficiencies in human behaviour, and 4) it highlights missing controls (not just controls that failed). Quality throughout all aspects of Tripod is assured by the Stichting Tripod Foundation (STF) and the Energy Institute. The participants will gain a theoretical understanding of the Tripod Beta methodology and terminology. They will be able to read Tripod diagrams and reports, and be able to assist incident investigation/analysis as a team member. This is the first step to becoming an accredited silver or gold practitioner. Tripod Beta Practitioner Accreditation is meant to build these skills, through a blend of support, coaching and assessments. Feedback is provided on Tripod incident investigation reports, giving the Practitioner the opportunity to hone their skills and become confident in their ability to use Tripod effectively. Training Objectives Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: Pass the Tripod Beta Practitioner (Bronze Level) exam Act as a team member or Tripod facilitator on an incident investigation Plan and schedule activities for an incident investigation Focus line of enquiry during an investigation Engage with the most relevant people at each stage of the investigation Describe the incident causation paths in terms that align with their management system Consider issues relating to leadership, worker participation and human behaviour Assess the quality of an incident report Apply the process to any type of unwanted event that should have been prevented by a management system e.g., health, safety, environment, financial, security, productivity, quality, project management etc. Combine the findings from many incidents with data from other initiatives e.g., audits and inspections, to spot trends to prioritise actions and product a single improvement plan Target Audience The course is recommended for anyone who is expected to play a role in designing, reviewing, auditing, and following your organizations OH&S management system. Successful participants will be awarded the Stitching Tripod Foundation Tripod Beta Bronze certificate. The following oil & gas company personnel will benefit from the knowledge shared in this course: CEO Team Leaders Legal, insurance and finance departments Managers (Line and Function) Maintenance Engineers Quality Assurance Engineers Process Engineers Incident Investigators (Team member & Tripod facilitator) Project Managers System Custodians Technical Authorities Key Contractor's Management Contract Managers/Holders Safety Representatives Risk Management Engineers HSE Advisors Supervisors Auditors Regulators Course Level Basic or Foundation Trainer Your expert course leader has over 30 years of experience in construction, operations and maintenance with the upstream exploration and production sector.
