The PTDF scholarship award was announced in Dec 2016 for aspiring 2017 scholars.

In lieu of this, I registered for it and paid the applicable 1k as required. I also made sure I selected petroleum economics on the ptdf registration page and was subsequently invited for the test on the 8th July 2017.

On getting to the exam centre and inputting my PIN for the test, I realised that the courses have been grouped into 5 places with the warning that once the wrong course is selected, there is no going back.

Therefore, I am aware of the warning and selected my petroleum economics as i studied Economics (B.sc).

However, while the questions popped up, I realised all the questions populating were strictly engineering questions as it does not relate to Petroleum Economics.

All effort to speak to the coordinator fell on deaf ears as I was told I should just select any answer and go home.

According to Google and my petroleum economics course notes in school, see below definitions for Petroleum economics as against what Flexisaf uploaded as petroleum Economics.

Petroleum Economics involves the application of the techniques of economic analysis at every stage in the development of oil and gas exploration and production projects. The economics of oil and gas projects are affected by a range of factors, including:

the level of knowledge about the oil or gas field
the location, type and number of wells
market conditions
the effect of tax/royalty systems
By analysing factors like these, Petroleum Economists are able to assist in making investment decisions, such as deciding whether or not to drill an exploration well or whether or not to develop an entire gas production project. They are crucial in the negotiations around Production Sharing Contracts and purchasing oil and gas properties. Petroleum Economists are also involved in the assessment and management of the technical, economic and other risks associated with the different phases of an oil or gas projects.
