Permanent and growing activity (spending by global oil and gas companies increasing by 5% or so every year)

Energy demand will double from now to 2050

Access to reserves pushes new frontiers: arctic

A lack of engineers

An increasingly competitive market

Not a cool or new business industry an old chaps industry. Experience is paramount.

Engineering and Projects: Industry, players, jobs and careers The execution of a Project: the key features

Time pressure

High financial stake

Each project is a unique: technical content, project team, parties involved

There are well known methods but one needs to think out of the box to anticipate what will be the show stopper ever different

The challenge is not technical but to coordinate all parties involved
