Understanding Oil and Gas Production Results and CSR Programs
The third speaker, Wazirul Luthfi, presented material on the management of oil and gas production results after the processing stage, as well as the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs implemented by JTB.

The material provided insights into the results obtained from the oil and gas processing process, including the stages of managing oil and gas products before they are utilized further.
In addition, the speaker also discussed CSR programs as a form of corporate social responsibility toward the community and the environment around the operational area.
Through this presentation, students gained an understanding that the existence of the oil and gas industry is not only related to production and energy processing activities but also has a responsibility to support social development and community welfare in its operational areas.

Expanding Student Insights through Campus and Industry Synergy
STIEKIA Vice Chairman III for Student Affairs, Ahmad Saifurriza Effasa, S.HI., M.M., stated that the students' participation in this activity is part of the campus's efforts to expand learning experiences and increase students' insights into the industrial world.
“Through this public lecture activity, students are expected to gain new knowledge and experience directly from practitioners. These insights serve as important preparation for students to understand industrial developments and prepare themselves to face the challenges of the working world,” he said.
One of the participating students also mentioned that the activity provided a valuable learning experience, especially in understanding the upstream oil and gas industry processes that were previously only known through classroom learning.

“Through this public lecture, we gained a more realistic picture of the oil and gas industry, starting from the resource exploration process to processing and its contribution to society. This activity also broadened our insights regarding opportunities and challenges in the industrial world,” he said.
For students in the fields of economics and management, an understanding of the upstream oil and gas industry has important relevance in viewing the connection between the energy sector and economic activities, resource management, regional development, and corporate social responsibility.

STIEKIA continues to encourage students to actively participate in various academic activities, seminars, public lectures, and scientific forums as part of competency development and increasing competitiveness.
Through participation in this activity, it is hoped that STIEKIA students will have broader insights, an adaptive mindset, and readiness to face the challenges of the working world and industrial developments in the future.
This activity also serves as a form of synergy between universities and the industrial world in supporting the development of superior and competitive human resources.
