This oil and gas management course will expose participants to a wide range of complex management issues that the upstream and downstream petroleum industries are currently dealing with. It will also improve their comprehension of business management while utilizing cutting-edge innovative technologies.
The decline in oil prices has a detrimental effect on upstream operations. Still, it improves the profitability of downstream activities since cheaper feedstock increases refinery profits. Another crucial aspect of the company is the integration of petrochemicals and refining to obtain higher efficiency.
Managing integrated Upstream and Downstream businesses with technically intensive areas such as exploration, drilling, production, refining, petrochemicals, sales, distribution, and trading of oil, gas, and refined products require several cross-functional skills essential to this competitive industry. This oil and gas management training covers all these multi-functional skills and business practices.
