5-Day Petroleum Economics Masterclass by Rozmee Ismail
P.E.M.

Introduction

 

Sabah has been a key state for the development of Oil, Gas and Energy sector which has contributed significantly to nation building. With nation’s ‘Right Asset, Right Player’ strategy, the state hosts multiple key exploration & development blocks managed by prominent operating companies supported by local supply chain.

With the aspiration to empower local talents and organisations to actively participate and support local sector, in conjunction to SOGCE 2024, Midas Events Management, the organiser of SOGCE in partnership with Semarak Training, the pioneer of Malaysia’s integrated professional training provider is proud to organise our next SOGCE’s Talent Development Programme with the focus on Petroleum Economics Masterclass.

Economics drives the entire oil & gas producing industry. Almost every decision is made on the basis of an economic evaluation. Oil & gas operating company develops petroleum economics to justify risk and return of investment of its projects.

Therefore, it is important for professionals who are involved in Field Development Planning and Portfolio Planning to understand the fundamentals of petroleum economics for investment decision, how projects are selected and how development concepts are selected. While each country has its unique economic policies, Malaysia has been applying Production Sharing Contracts as the guidelines for operating companies and to manage the resources responsibly.

This masterclass has been developed to help professionals on the subject and offers 2 levels of courses:

Fundamentals of Petroleum Economics (2 Days): 24 – 25 June 2024
Advanced Petroleum Economics (3 Days): 26 – 27 June 2024


Learning stage and need of each professional might be different, thus this programme is designed to give flexibility where delegate is able to choose to attend single course or complete masterclass (2-in-1).


Learning Outcomes


By the end of the course, delegate will be able to:


• Understand how every major NOCs and IOCs evaluate projects, decide which development option is chosen for FDP, valuation of assets and how risk are mitigated. 
• Comprehend economic indicators used and how they are presented to top management for decision making.
• Recognise how current Malaysia’s R/C and sliding scale (Deepwater) PSCs work.
• Understand the value drivers in the PSC and the key to maximising the contractor’s value from the PSC.
• Appreciate the fundamental of Portfolio and Portfolio Optimization.

Who Should Attend

Front-end engineers, geologist, reservoir engineer, managers, planners, lawyers, and those involved in Field Development Planning project teams and Portfolio Planning.

Methodology

The course method will be a combination of the following;

  • Workshop style

  • Lectures with exercises using spreadsheet

  • Group activities

  • Case studies

About Expert Trainer: Rozmee Ismail

Mr Rozmee is a Petroleum Techno Commercial Professional with 28 years of experience in the upstream Oil & Gas industry. He has worked in both National Oil Company (NOC) and International Oil Company (IOC). The

experience has given him a balanced view of the aspirations of both sides and he believes both sides needs to understand this to ensure a successful relationship in the implementation of a petroleum contract.

He strongly believes that petroleum economics is the cornerstone of a petroleum contract spelled out through the commercial provisions spelled out in the PSC. As such he believes executives involved with upstream O&G should understand the commercial aspect of the PSC that their company are involved in.

He is proven trainer having conducted petroleum economics related courses over the last 20 years with good feedback from participants. Post retirement, he has conducted courses for several NOCs; Myanmar Oil & Gas Enterprise (MOGE), Senegal PETROSEN and Gabon Ministry of Hydrocarbon and Mines.

His background as front end engineer gives him a unique perspective of optimizing the economics of a project by through phasing of development to maximize the value of a projects.

He is also involved with the industry by being guest lecturer at Universiti Teknologi Petronas (UTP) and Universiti Teknologi MARA (UITM). In addition, he’s also industry external examiner for UTP’s Master in Petroleum Engineering programme.

5-Day Deepwater Drilling Operations by Steve Nas

Overview

 

Deepwater drilling is typically defined as operating in water depths exceeding 450 feet. To date, 116 Deepwater wells have been drilled thus far in Malaysia. At present, there are more than 6 BBOE (billion barrel of oil equivalent) waiting to be discovered in deepwater Malaysia, with the highest yet-to-find in Sabah, followed by Sarawak. This indicated that there are more opportunities in deepwater to be unlocked.

This course provides knowledge of Deepwater well design and drilling operations to drilling and completion engineers. The course is specifically designed to provide an understanding of the challenges associated with the design and construction of deepwater wells. The course covers not only theory, technicalities and practicalities of designing, drilling and completing deepwater wells but it also covers real examples and exercises.

This course is delivered by Semarak Training in partnership with MIDAS Events Management in conjunction of Sabah Oil, Gas & Energy Conference & Exhibition (SOGCE) 2024. The course is HRD Corp claimable.


Learning Outcomes

  • Understanding of the challenges associated with deepwater drilling and completion operations.

  • Overview of the standards, procedures and practices associated with deepwater drilling operations.

  • Overview of the geological and geophysical aspects of deepwater prospects.

  • Understanding of the drilling rig and equipment requirements for drilling deepwater wells.

  • Understanding of the drilling challenges and practices for deepwater well construction.

  • Overview of modern technologies and their applications for deepwater wells.

  • Understanding of fundamental well control practices for deepwater wells.

5-Day Metering & Allocation Masterclass by Dr. Bruno Pinguet

Introduction

 

Sabah has been a key state for the development for Oil, Gas and Energy sector which has contributed significantly to nation building. It locates multiple exploration and development projects with its unique hydrocarbon measurement & allocation. With the aspiration to empower local talents and businesses to actively participate and support local sector, in conjunction of SOGCE 2024, MIDAS Event Management, the organiser of SOGCE in partnership with Semarak Training, the pioneer of Malaysia’s integrated professional training provider is proud to organise Talent Development Program on  Metering & Allocation.

 

Measurements are vital in any activity requiring quantification. It is necessary to the successful operation of production systems to have an understanding of industrial processes, as well as the ability to monitor and control flow rate within those processes.

 

Liquids or gases will normally be monitored using flow metering at numerous stages along their path from production to consumption for the purposes of both financial and operational control. These measurements are necessary. Because it serves as either a cash register for your company or a means for charging customers, the flowmeter must provide reliable readings.

 

Even though the user has access to a variety of approaches, it is a well-known truth that a device that is inaccurate (or a device that displays a measurement that is less precise) can cost either the buyer or the seller millions of dollars as a result of reading inconsistencies.

 

This masterclass aims to provide important understanding on metering & allocation through 4 unique courses to help professionals to carry out jobs with superior capability and confidence. Learning stage and need of each professional might be different, thus this programme is designed to give flexibility where delegate is able to choose to attend single course, combination of courses or complete masterclass (4-in-1).

Who Should Attend?

Anyone who is new to flow measurement both in a technical and non-technical capacity including technicians, engineers, sales people, administrators and managers. The course is intensive but will make an effective use of delegates’ time.

Methodology

The course method will be a combination of the following;

  • Workshop style

  • Lectures

  • Group activities

  • Case studies

  • Q&A

  • Quizzes

5 Courses in 1 Masterclass

  1. Fundamentals of Flow Measurement (1 Day)

  2. Introduction to Measurement Uncertainty (1 Day)

  3. Introduction to Custody Transfer Measurement (1 Day)

  4. Introduction to Flow Calculations (1 Day)
