Managing a Drilling Company

(5 days)

For: Those who aspire to better manage a drilling company

This course includes 4 days of discussion/lecture and one day of workshop. We recount a number of real-world drilling company situations that required good management decisions in order to maximize the company’s present worth. 

The workshop works best by having groups of 4-6 delegates each take a specific problem for about 3 hours. Each group then presents their solutions to the class for discussion.
