Overview of the Course:
Mauritian Ocean Economy:
This course is designed for professionals who
wish to have an understanding of the oil business or who are preparing to take on managerial roles in the oil and gas industry that require them to move beyond their immediate
functional expertise and job role in the industry. As such the course offers participants insight and appreciation into the technologies
and decision processes for the full oil and gas
life cycle from exploration to asset appraisal
through to production.
With an Exclusive Economic Zone of 2.3
million square kilometers, the Republic of
Mauritius has one of the largest economic
territories in the world. We are thus
deploying every effort and muster all our
resources, energies and human capital to
harness the wealth of our ocean.
