Course Overview
Price volatility does not excuse weak discipline in permanent reservoir monitoring — it punishes it. The energy transition has not removed the need for rigour in the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations; it has added to it. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting the energy and hydrocarbon operations discipline, ready to be adapted internally. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of permanent reservoir monitoring is examined, not just described. The course sets out a working method for the energy and hydrocarbon operations capability that participants can apply the week they return. The professional literature on this aspect of energy and hydrocarbon operations converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. The level assumes working familiarity with the operating asset but no prior formal training in permanent reservoir monitoring. What blocks progress on the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for the energy and hydrocarbon operations discipline survives a hostile question.
