Courses

This course will provide knowledge and understanding of the use of strategic planning to optimise chances of success in oil and gas exploration. It will cover recognising the need for strategic change and how to develop options to respond to changing business environments. It will include implementation of new strategic directions and managing and monitoring performance.

The course builds on a number of case studies from companies of various sizes, showing examples of strategic change and what can be learnt from these. The scope will include the technical, economic and political drivers that shape the performance of all oil and gas organisations. The course will cover the importance of strategic planning at all stages of the exploration value chain (access through to basin selection and exploration play testing).

The participants will gain understanding of how to recognise the need for a strategic approach; how to develop a set of strategic options and then how to select and implement the appropriate strategy for a given situation.
