Course Summary
The course provides a complete overview of the fiscal terms of leases, concessions, licenses and production sharing contracts applicable to unconventional oil and gas on a worldwide basis. The course will provide introductions on the geological and technical aspects of shale gas, shale oil, coal bed methane and other unconventional resources. Also, the unique regulatory provisions required to encourage the development of these resources will be discussed.
The course is computer-interactive with an advanced and powerful model that simulates the actual terms used in the USA, Canada, Australia and a wide range of other countries in South America, Europe, Africa and Asia. This will permit governments and investors to assess the various terms and conditions, negotiate optimal contracts and decide where to invest, based on a comprehensive worldwide overview.
