IEEP is an experienced facilitator and provider of strategic advice for energy organizations, boards and management. Vision The IEEP and its associated centers, will train people at all levels to work effectively in the energy industry of the future. We will help build organizations that: • Draw on the talents of people from many nations, cultures, intellectual, technical, and professional backgrounds. • Need leadership and management that will energize knowledge workers at every level of operations and allow them to achieve their potential. • Consistently update the corporate vision with information and analysis which affects the global business environment in which it operates.

CENTERS OF EXCELLENCE Center for Energy Management Systems The Center for Energy Management (CEM) provides executive energy management training and assistance in developing strategic visions and planning for clients, and oil and gas information systems for private and public sectors. Center for Energy Market Analysis The Center for Energy Market Analysis (CEMA) will develop an annual global outlook in addition to forecasts for the market oil products for North America (NAOPS) and the Eastern Hemisphere (ESOPS). CEMA is also developing EWxAS which will provide a unique tool to plan and risk manage weather for energy companies world wide. Center for Energy Policy Analysis The Center for Energy Policy Analysis (CEPA) provides energy policy analysis and recommendations based on quality technical and economic understanding and research. CEPA is also developing an Energy Technology Assessment System (ETAS) which will provide a time and cost evaluation of emerging energy technologies.
