Course Overview
Price volatility does not excuse weak discipline in small-scale LNG economics — it punishes it. Regulators and insurers increasingly want documented evidence of how this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations is controlled. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better the wider energy and hydrocarbon operations agenda is rarely technical. Progress on small-scale LNG economics is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. Participants who influence this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this part of energy and hydrocarbon operations has actually achieved. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of small-scale LNG economics rather than to abstract argument. The course sets out a working method for the energy and hydrocarbon operations capability that participants can apply the week they return. Participants leave with a plan for this strand of energy and hydrocarbon operations sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
