  Diploma-Postgraduate in Oil and Gas Operation
• Course description
  This course focuses on the Oil Industry,
  from a Non-Technical perspective. It charts the journey of the Petroleum - Oil
  and Gas – Hydrocarbon, from ‘Access Right’ to the Land or Water is gained, for
  initial testing, through to the ‘Mineral Rights Acquisition’, Stratigraphic
  Tests, Drilling and Production of the Oil and Gas. It incorporates the
  different levels of ‘Interests’ (Working Interest and Non-Working Interest) that
  prevail and what each means, in contractual terms, for the different players –
  Mineral Right Owners, Service Providers, Operators and Non-Operators.
