LNG Commercial & Economics Management Master Class 2011

Liquified Natural Gas is a booming industry with new sources of LNG being constantly discovered. And with each new discovery comes the business of extraction, transport, storage and distribution. Commercial managers play a vital role in all these areas.

A four day course designed to help commercial managers with the ever-changing situation in LNG will be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from June 20-23, 2011. The course consists of lectures, workshops and discussion sessions with experts in their respective fields. So keen are the organisers to ensure the course has enormous practical benefits, each delegate is asked to prepare a pre-course document outlining their experience, needs and requests.

The course format is dominated by small groups and highly interactive workshops with subject matters dealing with current trends and issues and points raised by delegates in their pre-course submissions.

Of course the technical aspects of LNG production are of vital concern. But commercial managers have to deal with the overview position. Commercial managers must be aware of the technical requirements and take them into consideration when running the commercial operation of the LNG operator and the course in Malaysia covers all aspects of the commercial managers' role.

The beauty of the experts at the course is that they all come from a practical background. They all have current and lengthy expertise in the commercial, technical and legal aspects of working within the LNG industry.

And while the course aims clearly at commercial managers, many others will find the sessions of much value. Investors, lawyers, government officials, distributors, traders and managers will find sessions informative and of serious practical assistance.
