"In the (oil and gas) industry we have the expression - first we hire the scapegoat."
- Edward W. Merrow, CEO, Independent Project Analysis, on his observed tendency of many owners of unsuccessful oil and gas mega projects to shift blame onto contractors when project execution founders.
The aim of this event is to successfully align stakeholders, EPC, service companies and commissioning parties to deliver large scale projects on time and within budget. The past decade has seen projects within the process industries become significantly more complex. As easily accessible natural resources are diminished we are developing increasingly challenging projects out of necessity. The larger the project gets, the more difficult it is to deliver on all the promises made at the time of initial investment. A recent study of the performance of the past decade's megaprojects in the upstream oil and gas industry indicated that a staggering 78 percent of projects fail. This failure is further exacerbated by the post global recession economy, having an impact on how stakeholders and the corporate entity view return on investment. Ensuring your organisation has incorporated a robust interface management programme and strategy has never been so crucial.
Join us for the upcoming Interface Management for Capital Projects Summit where industry leaders will gather to discuss facilitating effective interface management in successfully delivering increasingly complex capital projects.
