JODI Knowledge Transfer

Regional JODI Training Workshops

Since summer 2006, the IEF and its JODI partner organisations have prepared a series of regional training workshops on JODI. Through these workshops, we help our participating countries to report better quality data through the JODI Oil questionnaire. These workshops offer participants in charge of oil statistics from governments an occasion to clarify JODI definitions and to learn more about data quality assessment techniques. These workshops are also a good opportunity to share their best practices on data validation or to discuss issues on data collection.

JODI Internships

The government of Norway has provided the IEF Secretariat additional funding to promote JODI among developing countries. This enables the us to offer short-term internships at the IEF Headquarters in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for officials in developing countries dealing directly with oil market statistics.

A primary objective of the internships is to strengthen working level contacts between countries and the JODI partner organisations as well as to improve and maintain the quality of national data submissions to JODI.
