Why Choose This Course

Joint Venture GRC Training Course equips professionals with the essential skills to navigate the complexities of operated and non-operated oil and gas ventures. Oil and gas joint ventures bring together companies that share investment, production, and operating risks while remaining strictly accountable to their own boards, shareholders, and regulators. Partners often agree on a broad development strategy yet differ on critical operational details, such as how quickly to approve capital expenditure, how much oversight to exercise over the operator, or how to handle an unexpected compliance incident.

A well-designed governance framework is critical to define who holds decision-making rights, what operational information partners require, and when specific issues must be escalated. This comprehensive training course examines how governance, risk, and compliance function across the lifecycle of a venture. Participants explore how joint operating agreements, shareholder agreements, and applicable licence or concession terms shape voting thresholds, funding obligations, and partner oversight, transforming contractual obligations into practical, daily controls.

Throughout the five-day course, participants tackle real-world scenarios, including cost overruns exceeding operator authority, disputed joint account charges, overdue regulatory obligations, and suspected contractor compliance breaches. By engaging in hands-on exercises and a final joint operating committee simulation, attendees learn to review evidence, challenge operator proposals, document follow-up actions, and strengthen overall joint venture oversight.
