Improving Cash Flow in Tough Economic Times CASH IS KING and this especially true in tough economic times. The current economic slowdown has impacted the cash flow of most organizations. Most have reduced budgets to the bare minimum but are still experiencing cash flow pressures. There are other strategies that may improve cash flow. We work with a variety of companies in the oil and gas industry and we would like to share some of the successful strategies we’ve seen implemented to improve cash flow. The strategies cover both increasing cash inflows and reducing cash outflows. The topics will include government grants & incentives, contract audits, and restructuring strategies for various expenditures. Speakers: Pesh Patel, Partner, BDO

Introduction to Petroleum Accounting Date: May 25 & 26 (2-day course) This seminar has been specifically designed to provide an introduction to the Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry and a review of the basic accounting principles and procedures in regular use by the industry. Topic areas include: geology, drilling and completions, field facilities, joint venture accounting, production and revenue accounting, and financial and management accounting. Day 1 Petroleum Geology Reservoir, Drilling, Completions & Production A reservoir engineer is engaged to determine the viability of the target formations to hold petroleum and the potential for their economic production. At first, they must determine if there is any natural energy that will allow the well to flow. Then, based on information that is gathered during the drilling operation and also on information from other wells in the area, the reservoir engineer can estimate the amount of petroleum that has been discovered. As production occurs, the engineer can then determine if there are any recovery methods that can enhance both the production rate and the overall recovery. The various steps in the drilling operation will be discussed along with the different components of the drilling rig. Once a well has been drilled, the results of the operation are evaluated and the geologic results are examined to determine if well will be economic. Hopefully, this is the case and we will be able to complete the well, equip it and eventually make a profit. In this section we will discuss some of the common well completions and other operations that are performed on a well during its life. Production Facilities Produced petroleum must be gathered and treated to bring it to market specifications. We do this by sending gas to gas plants and oil to oil batteries. This portion of the module will discuss some of the equipment that is used for these purposes. Joint Interest Accounting The Production and Revenue Accounting portion of the course includes the basic functions of a production accountant including ; Prorating Production, Pipeline Splits, Royalties, Non-Owner Fees, Gas Cost Allowance, and Equalizations. Day 2 Production & Revenue Accounting Financial & Management Accounting Instructors: Lorie has been teaching for the past 25 years for CAPPA, PASC, and various other organizations. She currently consults for several companies specializing in Gas Cost Allowance and Equalizations. Mark Lane Mel Miners Monique Tenn Richard MacKelvie Tracy Kozak |
