Energy Manager

There is a very important aspect of energy industry apart from the technical stuff, and that is Energy Finance and Project Management. Today’s manager in oil and gas industry must know how the money is flowing in their industry, in their organization and their projects.

Any energy company at the end of day is group of projects bundled together. So if you can handle projects well you can handle the company as well. As a good manager you should have working knowledge of-

a) Technical aspect (this includes geology, drilling etc.)

b) Energy Finance (basic)

c) Project Management (basic)

d) People Management (advance)

In a recent survey it has been found that 75% of projects in oil and gas industry do not deliver what they promise. This results in extra cost, extra time and loss of resources.

I have already been writing about technical aspect of oil and gas industry, I will soon start a series on Energy Finance and Project Management, which will cover the basics.
