This Training Course focuses on one of the most critical activities in the development of the oil and gas industry: critical analysis and evaluation of potential investors and partners. Structure, technology, competition, and strategic choice are all becoming more complex in the oil and gas industries.
As a result, a company's relationships with potential investors and partners now require a much higher level of appraisal and focus than in the past.
This high-level 10-day Course will focus on the use of cutting-edge due diligence tools and techniques in the development of effective relationships with these two strategically significant stakeholder categories.
Due diligence is multifaceted. It is based on an understanding of potential investors' and partners' needs and objectives, their decision criteria, and their compatibility with our own company's strategic and operational objectives. Finally, it necessitates a structured process for effectively attracting and integrating new investors and partners in order to sustain continuous improvement in the company's profitable growth.
