Description
This course will not follow the traditional lecture-style format, instead, it will be an interactive hands-on workshop where the participants will work on several case studies directly related to the selected topics. This workshop will take an EPC contractor perspective while also highlighting how owner companies (NOCs and IOCs) interact with their EPC contractors to develop and execute their projects. The workshop material covers both onshore and offshore projects. The main objective of this workshop is to present several real-life scenarios of different types of project issues encountered by contractors and work through these issues to show how they should be addressed to arrive at an optimum resolution. This workshop will focus more on practice and less on theory. In addition to the case studies created and provided by PetroSkills, it is recommended that attendees provide a few scenarios from their current or past projects to be used in the workshop as case studies.
