orn out of the desire to keep the table tops clean,
Bthreatened to the verge of extinction by Edison's
invention and rescued by Ford's, no other industry has
found its fate entwined to technology and human needs,
the way the oil industry has. Years down the line, the oil
industry towers above the rest and continues to
contribute and gain from the symbiotic relationship
with technology.
The world today has come to be a place with
transformed human needs and technology. In our quest
for knowledge and perfection, we find ourselves
running into short supplies of conventional sources that
had been energising our dreams. With a little over a
century of fuelling our dreams behind it, the oil
industry's tryst with technology has found new
dimensions.
An industry that went global ages before globalization
became “the business phenomenon”, has defined &
redefined the ways of doing business in market place
where almost every country on the globe is a buyer.
Today, it stands on another threshold of change,
facilitated by the technological advancements to
welcome into the realms of energy, alternate sources of
satisfying our insatiable thirst for energy. With new
dimensions being added to energy, it is once again time
to redefine the ways in which the business affecting
people across the globe is run.
In the changed settings, the need of the hour is to train
professionals with the ability to synthesize from past the
knowledge of running a business global in reach and the
vision to shape a future where the spectrum of energy
with wider dimensions would have a greater role to play
because, to quote Paul Valery, - “The future is not what it
used to be”.
At RGIPT we are doing just that.
