Course Overview
Price volatility does not excuse weak discipline in major project finance structuring — it punishes it. The energy transition has not removed the need for rigour in finance structuring; it has added to it. It concentrates on the parts of the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. What blocks progress on major project finance structuring is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about this part of energy and hydrocarbon operations. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on finance structuring are used deliberately. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of major project finance structuring and supervised application. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in finance structuring that were visible long before the incident. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this strand of energy and hydrocarbon operations survives a hostile question.
