The early parts of the course focus on how to synthesize data on the key risks affecting exploration so that key observations and interpretations can be synthesized in the drawing of play fairway maps. \nThe second\, more practical\, portion of the course includes exercises in drawing and integrating common risk\nsegment maps\, all based on a real frontier licence round situation and on ‘cheap’ public domain data. This is then fed through to a licence round recommendation and to a yet-to-find analysis. Participants may use their own companies colour schemes for play fairway analysis or may adopt a scheme used by the presenter. \nWho Should Attend\nGeologists and geophysicists or exploration managers that are involved in the assessment of new exploration\nopportunities and new country entry. This is an advanced level course and a basic knowledge of petroleum\ngeology and in particular of petroleum systems is required. It would be helpful\, but not vital\, if participants have\nattended ‘Advanced Basin Analysis’\, a course that immediately percedes this one. \n\nGeologists\nGeophysicists\nGeoscientists\nExploration Managers\nExploration & Development Department\n\nKey Learning Objectives\n\nLEARN how to rapidly synthesize a regional database into a suite of ocloured ‘Common Risk Segment’ maps to use these to identify the regions and blocks of highest potential in any basin.\nLEARN  how to save their companies millions of dollars in data acquisition costs by rapidly focusing on the most prospective parts of basins unsing public domain data.\n\nLEARN how to deal with both risk and uncertainity and be able to cope with both good and poor datasets.\n\nLEARN a methology for rapidly screening acreage so as to respond to short term datelines such as license rounds.\nLEARN  how to extend the play fairway analysis into a ‘yet to find’ analysis assessing the remaining reserves in any basin.\n\nIn-house Trainings Available Upon Request.

The purpose of the AML rules is to help detect and report suspicious activities including the predicate offenses to money laundering and terrorist financing\, such as securities fraud and market manipulation. Recent fraud transaction has included basic but sophisticated mirror transaction and as such\, it is a responsibility to monitor and report such activities to the financial authority. \nFATF Recommendations are recognized as the global anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing (CFT) standard. The Recommendations were first drafted in the 1990 and were revised several times including with major changes introduced in 2001\, 2003 and 2012. As each country has different legal\, administrative\, operational and financial system\, the FATF Recommendations shall be individually adapted to fit one’s own circumstances. FATF has in the past issued statements pertaining to strategic deficiencies in AML/CFT regimes and as such\, both financial and non-financial institutions are advised to take appropriate actions and measures to address and to revise their AML/CFT regimes accordingly to the latest FATF recommendations.\n \nIn its 2015 Mutual Evaluation Report of Malaysia\, the FATF noted of the following points for improvement: “Malaysia’s understanding of risk is sound\, although improvements are needed in the assessment of Terrorist Financing (TF) risk to include more details for the private sector\, and to deepen the assessment of Money Laundering (ML) risks from foreign sourced threats. Improvements are needed to ensure financial intelligence is used to target investigations for at least all the high-risk crime types. Malaysia is not effectively targeting its high-risk offences (other than fraud) or foreign sourced threats in its prosecution of ML as most cases relate to low-medium level offence as it tends to pursue criminal justice measures rather than ML prosecutions”. \n“Malaysia Law Enforcement Agency (LEA) also tends to use security intelligence approach to terrorism prevention rather than the financial intelligence and criminal prosecution approach against the terrorism financiers although it has some successes using other criminal justice and administrative measures to disrupt TF risks. Malaysia’s legal framework for supervision is sound with most work carried out by RIs (Reporting Institutions) which are supervised by BNM (Bank Negara Malaysia). There is a gap however in BNM FIED’s (Financial Intelligence and Enforcement Department) available resources to supervise the large DNFBPs population. For RIs\, there is a need to transition from rules based to risk based approach and RIs do not always implement CDD requirements on a risk-sensitive basis and more need to be done to focus on transnational crime and foreign risks.” \nTherefore\, there are inherent vulnerabilities in regards to ML and TF risks as Malaysia is exposed to international trade and flow of capitals. This is real as Malaysia is also situated in a region with high risk of radical activities. In this workshop\, delegates will have deeper understanding of the risks and practices and to discuss and learn on improving national standards as per the latest FATF recommendations in order to eliminate or minimize ML and TF risks. \nWho Should Attend\nPrincipals especially those working in the Financial Industry including both the public sector (financial regulators and supervisors such as monetary authority and financial intelligence units) and private sector (such as Banking\, Insurance\, Securities\, Trusts and Service Providers) are encouraged and shall benefit by attending this course. \nA list of POTENTIAL ATTENDEES\, but not exhaustive\, is laid out below as follow: \n\nFinancial Transaction Regulators / Supervisors\nFinancial Intelligence Managers/Analysts\nPolicy Makers\nFinancial Institution Directors\nFinancial Institution (Senior) Vice Presidents\nAML/CFT Policy Analyst\nAML/CFT Compliance Analyst\nCompliance Managers\nCompliance Auditors\nDD Managers\nKYC Analyst\nRelationship Managers\nRisk Managers\nPrivate Equity Professionals\nLegal Managers/Supervisors\nFinancial Lawyers\n\nKey Learning Objectives\n\nLEARN the latest developments in the industry regarding financial compliance\nBe AWARE of the implications arising from FATF Recommendations\nUNDERSTAND that ML/FT crimes evolve along with advances in Information Technology\nACQUIRE practical yet effective strategies for conducting KYC and CDD to counter the ever-sophisticated ML/FT typologies\nSTRENGTHEN compliance oversight on AML/CFT policies and coordination\nMITIGATE money laundering and terrorist financing risks based on risk- based approach (RBA)\nENSURE that the AML/CFT regime is adequate to address such risks\nNETWORK with fellow delegates (from both public and private sector) from similar background and build contacts\n\nIn-house Trainings Available Upon Request.

Governments and regulatory bodies are the main actors in setting such levels of the first type in public private partnerships; the current shareholder interests drive the second. Many companies are involved with ISO 5500 Asset management programmes. \nReliability Engineering (RE)\, a sub-branch of Operational Research\, then is advocated to be an appropriate tool. However\, experience shows that the mathematical background of RE in many cases fails to recognise practical situations\, assuming information and operational conditions to be known to such extent that precise\, in-depth analysis is possible. Practical engineers\, generally being risk-aversive\, thus have an easy excuse of shying away from such “advanced scientific techniques” \, relying more on technical insight\, in many cases “gut feeling”. However\, the RE framework\, if properly used\, has proved to be an effective tool in decision support. \nThis workshop aims at such decision makers in the petrochemical area. It will provide the attendants with a substantiated opinion on system characteristics and analysis\, balancing technical insight with theoretical analysis. \nTraining methodology \nThe training will be given as a workshop with formal lectures and interactive exercises. Ample opportunities for discussion and experience sharing will be provided. Practical problems from attendants fit for discussion in class are welcomed. \nWho Should Attend\nThis workshop is designed to be beneficial to all individuals who are involved in maintenance in the oil and gas and petrochemical industry. Job titles include but are not limited to \n\nMaintenance Engineers/Supervisors/Managers\nOperations Engineers/Supervisors/Managers\nProduction Engineers/Supervisors/Managers\nProject Engineers/Supervisors/Managers\nLogistics co-ordinators\nPlanners\nPlant Manager/ Asset Manager\n\nKey Learning Objectives\n\nTransform the vision of your organisation from maintenance support to Asset Management\nDeal with decisions requiring a proper understanding of chance and risk\nAnalyse system configurations in terms of potential production in relation with reliability and maintenance characteristics\nTo select and apply appropriate Reliability and Maintenance engineering methods (FMECA\, RBD\, FTA\, RCM\, RBM\, CBM) given available information\nSelect and store field information to steer and secure this management process\nUnderstand the methods that contribute to asset performance\, and that interact with and support each other\n\nIn-house Trainings Available Upon Request.

FATF has in the past issued statements pertaining to strategic deficiencies in AML/CFT regimes and as such\, both financial and non-financial institutions are advised to take appropriate actions and measures to address and to revise their AML/CFT regimes accordingly to the latest FATF recommendations.\n \nIn its 2015 Mutual Evaluation Report of Malaysia\, the FATF noted of the following points for improvement: “Malaysia’s understanding of risk is sound\, although improvements are needed in the assessment of Terrorist Financing (TF) risk to include more details for the private sector\, and to deepen the assessment of Money Laundering (ML) risks from foreign sourced threats. Improvements are needed to ensure financial intelligence is used to target investigations for at least all the high-risk crime types. Malaysia is not effectively targeting its high-risk offences (other than fraud) or foreign sourced threats in its prosecution of ML as most cases relate to low-medium level offence as it tends to pursue criminal justice measures rather than ML prosecutions”. \n“Malaysia Law Enforcement Agency (LEA) also tends to use security intelligence approach to terrorism prevention rather than the financial intelligence and criminal prosecution approach against the terrorism financiers although it has some successes using other criminal justice and administrative measures to disrupt TF risks. Malaysia’s legal framework for supervision is sound with most work carried out by RIs (Reporting Institutions) which are supervised by BNM (Bank Negara Malaysia). There is a gap however in BNM FIED’s (Financial Intelligence and Enforcement Department) available resources to supervise the large DNFBPs population. For RIs\, there is a need to transition from rules based to risk based approach and RIs do not always implement CDD requirements on a risk-sensitive basis and more need to be done to focus on transnational crime and foreign risks.” \nTherefore\, there are inherent vulnerabilities in regards to ML and TF risks as Malaysia is exposed to international trade and flow of capitals. This is real as Malaysia is also situated in a region with high risk of radical activities. In this workshop\, delegates will have deeper understanding of the risks and practices and to discuss and learn on improving national standards as per the latest FATF recommendations in order to eliminate or minimize ML and TF risks. \nWho Should Attend\nPrincipals especially those working in the Financial Industry including both the public sector (financial regulators and supervisors such as monetary authority and financial intelligence units) and private sector (such as Banking\, Insurance\, Securities\, Trusts and Service Providers) are encouraged and shall benefit by attending this course. \nA list of POTENTIAL ATTENDEES\, but not exhaustive\, is laid out below as follow: \n\nFinancial Transaction Regulators / Supervisors\nFinancial Intelligence Managers/Analysts\nPolicy Makers\nFinancial Institution Directors\nFinancial Institution (Senior) Vice Presidents\nAML/CFT Policy Analyst\nAML/CFT Compliance Analyst\nCompliance Managers\nCompliance Auditors\nDD Managers\nKYC Analyst\nRelationship Managers\nRisk Managers\nPrivate Equity Professionals\nLegal Managers/Supervisors\nFinancial Lawyers\n\nKey Learning Objectives\n\nLEARN the latest developments in the industry regarding financial compliance\nBe AWARE of the implications arising from FATF Recommendations\nUNDERSTAND that ML/FT crimes evolve along with advances in Information Technology\nACQUIRE practical yet effective strategies for conducting KYC and CDD to counter the ever-sophisticated ML/FT typologies\nSTRENGTHEN compliance oversight on AML/CFT policies and coordination\nMITIGATE money laundering and terrorist financing risks based on risk- based approach (RBA)\nENSURE that the AML/CFT regime is adequate to address such risks\nNETWORK with fellow delegates (from both public and private sector) from similar background and build contacts\n\nIn-house Trainings Available Upon Request.

The purpose of these requirements is to focus AML strategies and compliance effrts where the risks are higher\, and at the same time\, to manage more effctively the costs of compliance and to reduce the fim’s exposure to ML and TF risks. \nML and TF risks can be quite diversifid and complex as ML and TF techniques continuously evolve\, and their identifiation and mitigation could be challenging for fims. The costs of compliance are increasing\, and so is the risk of sanctions by supervisors for failure to comply effctively with AML/CFT requirements. International banks are setting the bar high for AML/CFT compliance to establish correspondent banking relationships. \nIn light of these challenges\, this anti-money laundering course aims at providing participants with operational knowledge for identifying and assessing ML and TF risks\, acquiring information on the latest ML and TF trends\, and understanding the best practices in creating strategies and setting up effective risk-based compliance systems that is compliant with both FATF Recommendations and other international best practices. \nWho Should Attend\nPrincipals especially those working in the Financial Industry including both the public sector (financial regulators and supervisors) and private sector (such as Banking\, Insurance\, and Securities) are encouraged and shall benefit by attending this course.\nA list of POTENTIAL ATTENDEES\, but not exhaustive\, is laid out below as follow: \n\nFinancial Transaction Regulators / Supervisors\nFinancial Intelligence Managers/Analysts\nPolicy Makers\nFinancial Institution Directors\nFinancial Institution (Senior) Vice Presidents\nAML/CFT Policy Analyst\nAML/CFT Compliance Analyst\nCompliance Manager\nCompliance Auditors\nRelationship Managers\nRisk Managers\nPrivate Equity Professionals\nFinancial Lawyers\n\nKey Learning Objectives\n\n LEARN the latest trends of ML and TF\nACQUIRE practical yet ef ective strategies for identifying and assessing ML and TF risks\n UNDERSTAND ML and TF risks\n MITIGATE money laundering and terrorist financing risks based on risk-based approach (RBA)\n ENSURE that the AML/CFT regime is adequate to address such risks\nSTRENGTHEN compliance oversight on AML/ CFT policies and coordination\n\nIn-house Trainings Available Upon Request.
