Certificate in Global Downstream Oil & Gas Operations
- Format: Classroom
- Duration: 5 days
- Language: English
- Accredited: CPE, KHDA Certified training courses
INTRODUCTION
Today’s oil corporations must contend with complexity and competitiveness at ever-increasing levels. Although the decline in oil prices has a detrimental effect on upstream operations, it increases the profitability of downstream activities since refinery margins are increased with less expensive feedstock. Another important element in the industry is the integration of refining and petrochemicals to obtain greater efficiencies. It takes a variety of cross-functional abilities to manage integrated Upstream and Downstream activities like oil trading, petrochemical production, and refining. Managers and professionals need to constantly update their skills and broaden their business knowledge in order to perform at their best.
