Course Summary
The gas and oil industry is a vast industry with global influence. As with any business, projects need to be comprehensively managed to ensure they remain on task. This is particularly true for projects within the gas and oil industry, where there are an increased number of challenges relating to risk.
For effective risk management, it is essential to identify the key challenges the project may face. To do this, procedures such as HAZID HAZOP, MAR, and LOPA must be followed as closely as possible. Furthermore, other factors need to be accounted for: fluctuations in the market, environmental changes, and employees’ capabilities.
Gas & oil are products that will forever be required, so there is a great responsibility resting on the organisations that manage them. Businesses dealing with these have to protect their financial stability for themselves. With the widespread usage of this market, they need to consider the financial situations of customers, vendors, suppliers, and investors. Project risk management must consider each one of these influences when making huge planning decisions.
Those in charge of project management need to be dedicated, structured and able to understand the complexity of this field to ensure that all project risks are managed and monitored effectively.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Comprehend key roles, responsibilities, and activities associated with project risk management.
- Understand the human influence in risk management.
- Recognise the human interpretation of risks.
- Review the challenges faced within the industry.
- Analyse ideal methods and techniques for risk management optimisation.
- Effectively use relevant and appropriate tools for risk management.
- Understand the changing nature of the industry and the risks involved.
This course is designed for people who are involved in project risk management throughout an oil and gas-focused organisation. It would be most beneficial for:
- Project Managers
- Operations Managers
- Oil and Gas Architects.
- Maintenance & Reliability Engineers
- Senior Executives
- Project Consultants
- Asset Managers
- Technical Supervisors
- Finance Managers
This course uses a variety of adult learning styles to aid full understanding and comprehension. Participants will review real-world risk assessments and analyses for projects within the gas and oil industry to assess the risk mitigation tactics and their solutions.
They will be presented with the correct tools required to evaluate the cause and effect within the industry effectively, and these previous experiences will provide them with the opportunity to gain an in-depth understanding of how one would manage risk within a project. Participants will later design their own project plans based on their experience in their respective roles and discuss the potential challenges and probable solutions available.
