AUTHORISATION FOR EXPENDITURE IN THE OIL & GAS INDUSTRY

COURSE OBJECTIVE

The process of managing Authorization For Expenditure (AFE) is core to practically all E&P companies. Authorizations For Expenditure (AFEs) are typically raised by companies to provide a draw down against the broader capital budgets in relation to specific projects and account for the budget, projected field costs and actual costs based on a standard chart of accounts which depends on the type of project. AFEs are typically circulated between all concerned parties for review and approval prior to capital expenses being accrued. The process of managing AFEs also includes the working interests of partners in joint ventures which are so typical in the upstream sector of the oil and gas industry.
