Course Description

INTRODUCTION

Oil & Gas projects are becoming increasingly challenging as our global hydrocarbon resources are being steadily depleted. This means drilling and extracting from deeper wells, in more remote locations, and in increasingly complex environments. As technology improves, we find that we are able to cope with many of these challenges through the latest technological advancements. However, this also results in an increase in the demands placed on our project management teams. Projects are expected to be delivered faster, cheaper, and more efficiently than ever before.
