This seminar provides an introduction to the full life cycle of oil and gas fields. It covers the basics of exploration and production (E&P), geoscience, drilling, operations, reservoir engineering and commercial terms. The speakers will also discuss key issues faced by the industry related to M&A, sustainability and ESG reporting.
