Capability building is about ensuring that your teams have the right skills and knowledge for particular tasks. This can include management as well as technical capabilities. We can help with both areas through training courses, advice, and on-the-job support and mentoring.

This is drawn from our founder's experience running an AIM-listed company for 10 years and direct application of many of the tools and methodologies now available. This means we can help you navigate the jargon and get straight down to what help you need to get the best from your teams.

HELPING YOU GET MORE FROM WHAT YOU HAVE

In the current market, when everything has changed, not least company staff, it is key to ensure that companies get the most from what they already have in their data and knowledge libraries. Not least the large volumes of well, seismic, and 3rd party multi-clients and reports. Having worked around the world and in a variety of fields, and having designed and built many products used across the exploration industry, this is where we can help.

Round table discussions

Round-table discussion groups aim to bring together technical specialists with smaller staff groups to develop and explain ideas or concepts and answer questions in an informal, interactive setting.
 
These discussions can be designed around specific topics, such as scientific questions or the geology of geographic areas of interest.
 
With the current pandemic travel restrictions, round-table discussions are ideally suited for online. 

Mentoring

Mentoring is designed around individual needs. Traditionally companies have allocated mentors internally to facilitate staff development, but this has become more difficult given changes in company demographics and the loss of experience.

Workshops

Workshops provide the opportunity for much greater interaction with attendees, and this is our preference over traditional lecture classes, although we offer these too.

Workshops can be tailored to team needs and adapted to include in-house examples and materials.
 
We have already run workshops on topics including the following: crustal architecture; tectonics; paleoclimate modeling; lithofacies retrodiction; source, reservoir, and seal facies depositional systems; source-to-sink analysis.

Field-based courses & workshops

Fieldwork is a key skill in the Earth sciences. Its importance has become more evident during the lockdowns of the last two years where we have not been able to get into the field.
 
We have built a collection of field ‘cases’ that takes us to different outcrops, or groups of outcrops, worldwide. With these, we develop regional understanding, concepts, and ideas. Then, using this ‘case’ approach, we can build courses to best suit your needs.
 
These courses can be run online or in the field.

Research Support

We can help you research a topic quickly and easily using our internal workflows, data, and resources.
