Course Description
Petroleum Fiscal Modelling and Economic Analysis Training Course
This course introduces participants to the various and currently practiced petroleum fiscal systems and their valuation techniques. Delegates are also given practical guidance on the valuation of the different contracts and economic analysis of oil and gas development projects (within these fiscal environments) with special emphasis on Royalty-Tax systems and Production Sharing Contract PSC’s. The course also introduces participants to the concept and techniques of uncertainty and risk analysis as they apply to oil and gas development investment decisions.
Course Objectives
Participants will gain the understanding of, and acquire the skills of evaluating upstream petroleum assets, including the derivation of economic decision indicators and risk analysis to aid economic decisions.
Core CompetenciesÂ
- Apply tools for analysing risk and uncertainties.
- Participants will be able to prepare cash flow analysis including the determination of economic indicators
- Quantifying and characterise risk and uncertainty through decision analysis and sensitivity analysis.
- Participants will be able to determine recoverable reserves using deterministic models.
- Participants will understand the role of PSC petroleum economics in evaluating reservoir development project and minimizing risk.
Who Should Attend
This course is recommended for junior, middle-level and senior employees of upstream oil and gas companies. Geologists, Accountants, Engineers, Economists, Technicians who wish to acquire an understanding of the fiscal regimes of upstream petroleum operations and learn how to perform economic evaluation of oil and gas development projects will also benefit a great deal from this course. Graduates who wish to take up an entry level petroleum economist or fiscal modeler job in the oil and gas industry will benefit from the course
