The energy transition has not removed the need for rigour in geothermal energy investment; it has added to it. Price volatility does not excuse weak discipline in the wider energy and hydrocarbon operations agenda — it punishes it. Comparative studies of this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. It suits anyone whose decisions touch geothermal energy investment, in large organisations and small ones alike. Participants leave with a method for this aspect of energy and hydrocarbon operations, not a set of opinions about it. Ambition around the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. Participants finish able to explain geothermal energy investment to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a operating procedure for this strand of energy and hydrocarbon operations as they go. The final module sets out how progress on the energy and hydrocarbon operations capability will be evidenced six months later.
