Course Description
Advanced Joint Venture Cash Call (JVCC) for the Oil & Gas Industry Training Course
In view of an increasingly cost-focused and cash flow business climate, this short course is designed to address the effective design and operated cash call activities and framework that are critical to success of the JV partnership. This is because, in accordance with the terms and conditions in the Joint Venture (JV) / Joint Operating Agreement (JOA), each month the operator must estimate the cash requirements for the upcoming month and request payment from the non-operating associates. Once paid, the advance payment will be offset against the actual expenditures which appear on the Joint Venture Billing statement. It is also demonstrated that without them, the operating oil company is unable to make cash calls for anticipated future capital and operational expenditures from non-operating partners and ensure its success. Oil field and gas field E & P costly activities often suffer immensely whenever any of the partners is unable to meet his obligation to raise capital to finance its share of the joint venture cash calls, which enable the project to exist and operate.
