Course participant reviews for PetroSkills

The examples and learnings will surely help my effectiveness at work. Clearn and thorough explanation of basic concepts - this is necessary and appreciated!

Enjoyed the technical depth of the course. Appreciated that it was not purely conceptual and that it went into the equations and math.

It was a great class, that provided a broad knowledge of Petroleum Economics. The instructor's enthusiasm to teach really made the class!

I like the examples shared by instructor which can relate closely to my work.

Very good class! Thank you for including a few references to Alaska! This is my biggest gripe about most classes - total focus on Texas. Thanks for taking a broader perspective!

All in all, great class. Probably the best course I have ever attended. Great instructor.

I thought the content was spot-on.

The way it was given caught everyone's attention and was interactive.

The supplemental decline curve section was very worthwhile.

I really liked the project at the end that pulled it together for me. I really liked the exercises - it kept me engaged and helped me understand the content.

Refresher on CO2 and natural gas phase envelopes, material and spec discussions and best practices/real world examples.

Mucho conocimiento por porte del instructor claro con sus explicociones y uno bueno metoblologia.

Dr. Jim Peden was excellent, I have been to several courses over the years and I found him to be one of the best both in terms of technical/ theoretical knowledge as well as course delivery. His wealth of knowledge and experiences have definitely been evident throughout the course.

I enjoyed exercises with seismic data. Good explanations of complex theories with simple analogs.

I felt that all subjects were devoted the appropriate amount of time. I like the instructor's current hypothesis on thrust mechanics. The instructor is clearly at the forefront of the field.

Course was great. The tender management section of the course as well as the role-play for negotiations part. Very helpful.

Negotiations exercise was probably the most valuable as a whole with group participation.

Liked real world examples.

Liked discussing real life experiences of the instructors. Topics covered are just right.

Course was great. The tender management section of the course as well as the role-play for negotiations part. Very helpful.

Negotiations exercise was probably the most valuable as a whole with group participation.

Learning the advantages and disadvantages of different types of core and handling techniques. I also really enjoyed the petrography aspect.

The theory and the application on the theory combined with real example - clear example given helps me understand better. The test through kahoot makes it easier to recall the things taught before.

Field trip component was great - it tied in really nicely with the classroom material. Also nice to have rock fabric schemes and associated deposition/flows.

Course is very good, no improvement required. All topics are well covered."
