Description
Understanding and Evaluating Oil and Gas Investments is
a class on the methods used to evaluate upstream oil and gas
expenditures. The class presents a non-technical
review of land leasing and acquisition, upstream operations (exploration and production), and
investment analysis (project analysis and evaluation). The class contains
four hands-on exercises for students to apply information presented in the
Microsoft PowerPoint slides. Each
section contains a brief quiz to test the student's knowledge of the subject.
