Live Online Petroleum Project Valuation, Risk Analysis and Investment Decision-Making Training Course
Live online, instructor-led · next cohort Oct 26, 2026 · from USD 800
Rising expectations for accountability, efficiency and measurable results leave little room for improvised approaches to discounted cash-flow models. Across 5 days, participants work through discounted cash-flow models, NPV, IRR, and investment measures, and sensitivity and scenario analysis, practising each technique on realistic workplace cases rather than abstract theory. Every session pairs a short, focused briefing with hands-on practice, so new methods are tested on real problems before the next topic begins. The programme suits finance managers and controllers, accountants and financial analysts, and auditors and compliance officers, along with anyone stepping into a role where this work becomes part of the job.
Participants return to work ready to apply NPV, IRR, and investment measures, strengthen existing processes and share practical tools with their wider team. Training is available in the classroom, online or in-house, and in-house sessions can be tailored to a team's own systems, cases and priorities. Successful participants receive a CPD-accredited certificate recording the learning hours completed. Upcoming dates and locations are listed below, with online booking for every session.
