INTRODUCTION

Oil and gas supply chains operate across complex networks of suppliers, contractors, warehouses, ports, production facilities, projects, and international transportation systems. Effective supply chain management is essential for maintaining production continuity, controlling costs, supporting projects, and protecting critical operations. Poor planning, supplier failure, material shortages, logistics delays, and excessive inventories can create significant operational and financial consequences. This course provides a comprehensive approach to managing supply chain activities across the oil and gas value chain. Participants study demand planning, sourcing, procurement, contracts, supplier management, inventory, warehousing, logistics, risk, and performance improvement. The program explains how supply chain decisions affect asset availability, project schedules, working capital, and organizational resilience. It also highlights the importance of cross-functional coordination between operations, maintenance, engineering, finance, projects, and supply chain teams. Practical scenarios help participants diagnose supply chain problems and develop effective corrective and preventive strategies. The course ultimately supports greater supply reliability, stronger cost control, improved responsiveness, and sustainable operational excellence.
