About the Course
This oil and gas accounting training course will begin with a brief review of the technical aspects of a petroleum company’s value chain – upstream, midstream and downstream – and a typical petroleum project lifecycle from exploration to operations, sales and decommissioning.
It will pay specific attention to the financial and non-financial risks associated with each phase that the accountant needs to be aware of.
The course will cover the main terminology and industry jargon. The instructor will then analyse, assess and interpret the accounting-specific activities, discuss petroleum finance and accounting principles, and identify the challenges associated with each phase, including the terminology used.
