Course Overview
Deferred maintenance and deferred decisions on geochemical source rock analysis both accrue interest. Price volatility does not excuse weak discipline in rock analysis — it punishes it. The content is relevant to those who own this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations and to those who are held accountable for its results. Practitioner evidence points the same way: geochemical source rock analysis improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. The programme converts this aspect of energy and hydrocarbon operations from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what rock analysis has actually achieved. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about geochemical source rock analysis in their own setting. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting rock analysis and under-invest in testing it. The programme closes with an action plan for this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations that each participant writes for their own organisation.
