In recent years, it has

become increasinglydifficult for asset-intensivecompanies to build andoperate plants and assets ina reliable, environmentallyfriendly, safe and cost-effective manner due toissues such as:

Aging assetsIt is not unusual for companiesto operate with equipment thatwas originally installed two ormore decades ago. While somecomponents have been updated,the heavy use of aging assets hasbrought the issue of asset reliabilityto the fore.

Workforce trendsLabor demand is outpacingsupply. In developed countries,the demographics of an agingpopulation means that experiencedemployees are expected to retireover the next several years.Meanwhile, younger workers andrecent graduates (with engineeringskills) have different expectationsabout work and are showing lessinterest in pursuing careers inasset-intensive industries.

Lesser-developed countries pose

their own unique labor challenges.Operators often find that the localtalent pool has limited skilledworkers. Those who are skilled aredemanding salaries considerablyhigher than local cost-of-livingstandards.

Complexity of capital

projects

Due in part to global demandand the emergence of newtechnologies, capital build projectsare growing more complex. Inthe energy industry, for example,ultra-deepwater explorationand unconventional oil and gasproduction are technically complexprojects. Across industries, wesee that project complexity isinfluenced by other factors suchas geography (e.g., harsh, remote

locations) and the local politicalenvironment.

Financial markets

While there are signs of globaleconomic recovery, everyonecontinues to keep their eye on theresurgence of financing, marketliquidity and activity in mergersand acquisitions.

Let Accenture help you

overcome these and

other challenges with

the Accenture Plant and

Automation Solutions.

In Accentures experiencewith capital build programs,we see two key trends

emerging.The first is that due to heavy usageof plants and the age of someassets, significant investmentsin infrastructure are neededanestimated $26 trillion between2007-2030.1 This is a considerableinvestment for companies withfluctuating profit margins andreduced operating expenditures(OPEX).

A high level of investment is expectedto occur in every major geography andbe especially intense in offshore oiland gas, ref ining, mining, nuclear andrenewables industries.

Second, capital project owners oftenhave not developed the necessaryin-house skills to effectively managemultibillion-dollar, multiyear capitalprojects.Complexcapitalbuildprojects often involve multiplestakeholder groups, including

contractors, subcontractors, alliancepartners and suppliers. The numberand size of capital expenditure(CAPEX)projectshasincreasedtherisks for capital project owners.

A number of maintenancetrends (focused onimproving reliability)

are emerging in asset-intensive industries.Historically,asset-intensivecompanieshave kept a focus on maintenance costreduction. The result, however, hasbeenareactive(break-fix)approachto maintenance with short-termpriorities.

In order to achieve businessperformance goals and objectives,companies strive to operate and

maintain their plants and assetinvestments in a highly efficient,effective manner. This quest forperformance means companies needto decrease asset downtime and costs.One way to reduce the investments inyour assets is by extending their life(through asset life-cycle management).Similarly, rationalizing andconsolidating maintenance supplierscan assist your objectives.

We find that the use of remotediagnostics and smart monitoringtechnology is key to adopting aproactive maintenance approach.

Asset management analytics andinformation capabilities improvedecision-making and intelligence.For upstream energy companies,our integrated oilfield solutions canhelp drive value in core operationalactivities (in areas such as facilities,reservoir and wells). For refiners,Accentures core operations solutionscan help you run safe and sustainableoperations, monitor performance,proactively maintain assets, andachieve plant-to-business integrationusing automation and industrial IT.Additionally, Accentures integratedoptimization approach for thehydrocarbon supply chain can help youachieve the most optimal operationsfrom crude to retail (to realize thehighest margin in most dynamicmarket conditions).

Our solutionAccentures core operations solutionsconsist of a combination of plantmaintenance and reliability, production

optimization, supply chain optimizationand the Accenture Plant PerformanceSolution for upstream.

Together, our solutions help ourclients achieve better asset uptime,enhance production, improve resourceoptimization, strengthen maintenanceplanning, improve costs and facilitatesafer operations processes.

Environment,healthandsafety(EH&S)isamajor priority and a big

undertaking for asset-intensive companies.EH&Seffortshelptoreducelosses,increase results and bring a reliableimage for companies in differentmarkets around the globe.

Governmentsworldwidearemovingtoward enacting environmentallegislations for carbon abatement.These impending regulations willrequire new manufacturing techniques

and management processes toguarantee carbon emissions reduction.

In addition, resources and morerestrictive safety and environmentalrequirements and legislation arebecoming a concern to asset-intensivecompanies. Due to water scarcity andreduced water quality, for example,water management is increasinglyincorporated in the design andoperation of manufacturing facilities.Licenses and permits related to design,

construction and operation of assetscan become a bottleneck, leadingtoincreasesinCAPEX,aswellasimpacting time, scope and technologyapplied to the asset.

Safety, too, is a multifaceted issue.Promoting a safe and healthyenvironment in the workplace is a toppriority. Process safety is particularlyemphasized as companies strivefor zero fatalities and incident-freeoperations. In the past 10 years, the

incident frequency rate has decreasedenormously in different markets andindustries; this despite more complexprocesses and operations and biggerplants and assets. The challengecan be to understand where is theEH&SmaturitylevelandhowtoleveragenewEH&Sstandardsforyour organization.

In the publics perception (and insome cases, in the courts decision),companies are considered responsiblefor the health of the local community.And in recent years, manufacturers

are not only responsible for their ownoperations, but the safety of productsand services from far-flung suppliers intheir supply chain. In many countries,different companies consider this intheir contractor agreements, withEH&Sclausestoreachminimumrequirement conditions for contractorsemployees.EH&Smanagementagreements for contractors can also bea great challenge for organizations.
