Full Details

This course covers the basic principles of oil trading and the markets. Through a variety of case studies, delegates will learn the techniques involved in trading and how to address day-to-day problems. During the week, in a continuous theme case study, syndicate groups will manage their own company positions of production, refinery supply, product purchase/disposal and speculative trading, while reacting to new positions generated and changing market prices which simulate a live situation. Delegates will have the opportunity to trade both structured and live markets. It is recommended that delegates should have attended "International Oil Supply, Transportation, Refining and Trading" (SP1) or have working knowledge of the subjects covered in that course.

After reviewing the background of supply, refining and transportation, the course focuses on the key markets, pricing and the mechanisms involved in trading. Aspects of the various exposures encountered in trading are covered together with an introduction to price risk management. Syndicate exercises will address each skill required. Additionally, during the week, in a continuous theme case study, each syndicate group will manage their own company positions of production, refinery supply, product purchase/disposal and speculative trading, reacting to new positions generated and changing market prices which simulate a live situation. Delegates will have the opportunity to trade both structured and live markets.
