Course Overview

Deferred maintenance and deferred decisions on carbon markets and credit trading both accrue interest. Price volatility does not excuse weak discipline in credit trading — it punishes it. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations that were visible long before the incident. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting carbon markets and credit trading and under-invest in testing it. They acquire practical criteria for judging when the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations is working and when it is only appearing to. It establishes a shared vocabulary for credit trading so that teams can disagree productively about it. The programme works equally well for those formalising carbon markets and credit trading for the first time and those improving an existing approach. Participants test their assumptions about credit trading against scenarios designed to break weak ones. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to the energy and hydrocarbon operations discipline that would make a visible difference.
