LNG Commercial Fundamentals
A practical programme in lng commercial fundamentals, connecting working concepts with team decisions and relevant workplace examples.
About the Course
This programme develops a working approach to lng commercial fundamentals in the context of commercial energy decisions. Participants move from understanding the main concepts to examining a case, testing alternatives and explaining a practical recommendation. The three modules focus on value chain, pricing structures and shipping economics. Examples are selected after the training brief so that they reflect the responsibilities and experience of the participant group.
Course Objectives
- Explain the role of value chain and identify the information required for a reliable assessment.
- Use a structured worksheet to examine pricing structures and compare reasonable alternatives.
- Identify assumptions, missing evidence and implementation concerns related to shipping economics.
- Prepare a comparison of price, delivered cost, value and risk for discussion with a transaction team.
- Translate the exercise into a workplace action plan with owners, review points and measurable progress.
