In late March, more than 130 petrotechnical employees from around the world gathered in Houston for a special learning event, Learning and Innovation for Today and Tomorrow or “LIFT.”

The first LIFT was held in 2019, and participants were excited to gather again for this engaging learning opportunity.

LIFT participants came from a variety of backgrounds and business units, ranging from Geoscience to HSE, and Lower 48 to Qatar. Early and mid-career employees were nominated to participate in the program to build knowledge and expand their networks.

Participants left with new problem-solving techniques and enhanced communications skills to help convey complex, technical ideas. Importantly, participants formed connections with peers across the globe.

“We hope participants return to their business units feeling more energized about their career and with new skills to work in a much more productive and innovative way,” said Jim Read, manager of Learning & Competencies.
