Project management for oil and gas projects comes with a unique set
of challenges that include the management of science, technology,
and engineering aspects. Underlining the specific issues involved
in projects in this field, Project Management for the Oil and Gas
Industry: A World System Approach presents step-by-step application
of project management techniques. Using the Project Management Body
of Knowledge (PMBOK (R)) framework from the Project Management
Institute (PMI) as the platform, the book provides an integrated
approach that covers the concepts, tools, and techniques for
managing oil and gas projects. The authors discuss specialized
tools such as plan, do, check, act (PDCA); define, measure,
analyze, improve, control (DMAIC); suppliers, inputs, process,
outputs, customers (SIPOC); design, evaluate, justify, integrate
(DEJI); quality function deployment (QFD); affinity diagrams;
flowcharts; Pareto charts; and histograms. They also discuss the
major activities in oil and gas risk assessment, such as
feasibility studies, design, transportation, utility, survey works,
construction, permanent structure works, mechanical and electrical
installations, and maintenance. Strongly advocating a world systems
approach to managing oil and gas projects and programs, the book
covers quantitative and qualitative techniques. It addresses
technical and managerial aspects of projects and illustrates the
concepts with case examples of applications of project management
tools and techniques to real-life project scenarios that can serve
as lessons learned for best practices. An in-depth examination of
project management for oil and gas projects, the book is a handbook
for professionals in the field, a guidebook for technical
consultants, and a resource for students.
