We’ve converted our live Oil & Gas Overview Course to a virtual platform which offers you the same great content and continuing education credits in the comfort of your own home. The oil and natural gas industry is broad and complex, so IPAA has partnered with Energy Training Resources, LLC and developed an information-packed Oil and Gas Overview Course that connects the functional and commercial aspects of the industry. The course has an upstream focus with some midstream information and will thoroughly cover the following topics:
- Industry structure
- Petroleum geology and exploration
- Mineral rights and leasing
- Drilling and completion
- Development and production operations
Continuing education units (CEUs) available through:
- National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) – CPE
- Texas Education Agency (TEA)
- AAPL recertification credits – RL, RPL, CPL and CPL Specialist
IPAA’s Oil & Gas Orientation for Newcomers to the Industry was designed for newcomers and recent hires to the oil & natural gas industry who are looking to be proactive and valued by their employers by understanding the structure of the industry, functions, and commercial terms.
Many companies are behind on training because of recent cost cutting and it can be difficult and expensive for companies to organize effective orientation programs in-house. We have a solution. We have teamed up with Energy Training Resources to create a well-organized, media-rich program that covers the basic industry structure, functions, and commercial terms in just one day, at a low cost.
The course will be conducted at the Houston Museum of Natural Science and participants will have access to the museum’s newly-renovated Wiess Energy Hall. As course topics are covered, participants will be able to view the Energy Hall’s related exhibits, giving them a hands-on and memorable learning experience.
No current dates are on the calendar but if you are interested in receiving a notification when new dates are set, email Nikki.
