1 PETROCONSULT ENERGY DIPLOMA PROGRAM (6 WEEKS) BACKGROUND As a result of critical needs assessment of technical know-how and industry management specialization, requirements, we are proud to provide a set of specialized management diploma programs in three core areas. 1. Diploma in Oil & Gas Accounting & Finance 2. Diploma in Petroleum Economics 3. Diploma in Oil & Gas Business Management 4. Diploma in Oil & Gas Supply Chain Management All of the programs represent the outcomes of research into areas of knowledge group in the non engineering management of oil & gas exploration and production operations. The actual nature of theses core management areas has therefore necessitated the need to equip national oil companies (NOC), International Oil Companies (IOC) and the Services Companies existing and new staff who have been identified as potential future managers & executives. Program Description Each of these programs consists of three modules: Module 1: Module 2: Module 3: Detailed Oil & Gas Exploration & Production Operations Core topics peculiar to each discipline & diploma Case studies, Class exercises, Assignments / Projects, Industry seminars (available and relevant) & Open day to the UK Energy Institute in the city of London.
