Course Overview
Price volatility does not excuse weak discipline in oil and gas demand forecasting — it punishes it. Deferred maintenance and deferred decisions on demand forecasting both accrue interest. Most organisations already have a policy on this strand of energy and hydrocarbon operations; far fewer can show it working. The programme is built to be used, and every section of oil and gas demand forecasting it covers ends in something applicable. The level assumes working familiarity with the operating asset but no prior formal training in the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations. Participants gain a realistic view of what demand forecasting costs and what it returns. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a operating procedure for oil and gas demand forecasting as they go. Mature organisations treat demand forecasting as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The programme closes with an action plan for this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations that each participant writes for their own organisation.
Expected Learning Outcomes

Define the escalation path for abnormal conditions detected in demand forecasting.
Verify that contractors working on oil and gas demand forecasting meet the same standard as direct staff.
Integrate demand forecasting with the wider process safety management system.
Select indicators that show whether oil and gas demand forecasting is improving, and reject those that only look useful.
