À propos de cette carrière

You have an over-arching knowledge of how the industry works and the ability to promote collaboration. As a Joint Venture Representative (JVR), you can serve as the glue that holds partnerships together. You are responsible for developing, negotiating and monitoring agreements between partners. To do this, you work closely with logistics, engineering, field operations, land management, accounting, auditing, marketing and legal counsel.

Joint Venture Representatives develop, negotiate and monitor the execution of formal agreements for operated and non-operated joint ventures. Joint ventures are partnerships where two or more companies work together. Petroleum companies form joint ventures for many reasons. These may be to share costs and risks, to leverage economies of scale, to access new technologies and customers, or to improve access to financial resources. Joint Venture Representatives integrate the requirements of disciplines such as engineering, field operations, land management, marketing, legal counsel, accounting and auditing to ensure the company’s best interests are served and the agreements can be executed successfully.

In this occupation activities may include:

Acting as a point of contact internally and externally or non-operated properties
Participating in property reviews that include profitability and optimization recommendations
Establishing and maintaining good relationships with joint venture associates
Negotiating production facility ownerships, processing and transportation agreements
Negotiating joint venture agreements

Education

Joint Venture Representatives come from diverse backgrounds, such as engineering, field operations, land management and finance.
