Financial Reporting for the Oil Industry Training Course (Online / Remote)
1Summary
Few industries combine the financial exposure of oil production: exploration can consume vast capital with no guarantee of a viable find, while a successful well can recover its full investment within a short period. This capital intensity, long payback horizon, and reliance on concession, leasing and production-sharing contracts is what makes the accounting and financial reporting practices of oil companies distinctive. This Financial Reporting for the Oil Industry Training Course by the Arab British Fellowship Training Academy explores how these technical and legal realities are reflected in a company's financial statements.
The course opens with a grounding in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) before moving into the specialised elements of financial reporting unique to the oil sector, illustrated with real examples of financial disclosure from oil companies.
