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.

Engineers and Managers often suggest this seminar to non-technical staff, so they can better understand the content of reports and budgets. This seminar is about communicating complex ideas to a non-technical audience.

This seminar has run for 15 years in London.

The seminar is aimed at people working in oil & gas and financial environments, who are new to the industry or would benefit from an understanding of the technical processes and the key elements in oil and gas projects.
