The Sultanates only event addressing the risks and complexities of oil and gas EPC projects
Dear Colleague, As you may be aware, the Sultanate is looking to increase exploration and production operations of reserves, invest in the discovery of new oil and gas fields, attract investments into Omans petroleum resources and continues to place importance on enhanced oil recovery techniques. Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) plans to invest US$ 5.2billion a year for 2012 - 16 in order to increase production capacity. The demand for oil and gas is increasing considerably in Oman, thus the services required for developing new plants and adding capacity results in an demand for complex Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC) projects. Although the current trend offers many opportunities to EPC contractors, there are plenty of challenges that must be addressed whilst executing these large-scale, complex projects. From the bidding process until the commissioning stage, EPC contractors must overcome the risks and difficulties in order to meet tight deadlines and budget constraints. The third annual Oman EPC Projects Summit will address the latest trends, opportunities, challenges strategies and technologies for procuring and delivering quality and sustainable EPC projects for the oil and gas, petrochemical, fertilisers and pipeline industries in Oman. There is a wealth of EPC project opportunities in Oman which is reflected by the increasing number of foreign players in the market who are winning major contracts from countries including Korea, Japan, China and Spain. Oman EPC Projects 2014 will provide all stakeholders guidance on how to access this multifaceted market and its potential. Kind regards, Maneesh Nair

Who will you meet?

Oman EPC projects 2014 will bring together industry experts from: Government Authorities Public and Private Developers, EPC contractors and subcontractors, Consultants, Legal and Financial experts, Academics, Construction material suppliers, technology and solution providers

Pre-event workshops Sunday, 9 March 2014

Workshop A: Strengthening collaboration between multiple parties during an EPC contract 10:00 13:00
Due to the importance of starting a project on time and executing it without disputes / disruptions, it is important to evaluate tactics / methods that improve the reliability of those involved in the contract from client, contractor, sub contactor, vendors etc. In order to avoid risk throughout your EPC contract, it is important to ensure thorough exchange of interaction between all the above mentioned parties. By attending this workshop, you will get a clear knowledge on how to analyse and improve collaboration between all the parties of an EPC project for its success.

Workshop B: Understanding the estimation and cost control fundamentals for oil and gas EPC projects 14:00 17:00
Managing the complexity of major capital projects in todays oil, gas and petrochemical industry landscape has never been more challenging. Developing effective cost estimation and control strategies in the project development phase plays a vital role in the success of an overall project management plan. Project history and the subsequent statistics tend to suggest that between 50% to 100% of capital projects overrun. It is important to know the completeness and the accuracy ranges for capital project estimates. By attending this workshop you will recognise critical components to consider in various project estimates, understand all the factors that affect the final cost of building oil and gas infrastructure which includes overall planning, scoping, and engineering.

Key topics to be discussed:

Recognising areas of high risk and addressing problems when working in different parties Managing risk with multiple relationships and indemnity issues by setting your project expectations upfront Selecting a realistic and clear timeline during negotiation to avoid future scheduling impacts Improving lines of communication to minimise disputes between the different parties involved in the project Exploring different risk mitigation methods and setting effective controls for clarifying expectations, duties and limitations

Key topics to be discussed:

Outlining and examining the variety of overall project considerations and different estimate classifications. Applying best practices to overall scoping of project costs Reviewing project economics and financial parameters Analysing material costs and reviewing different estimate methodologies Identifying issues around and become familiar with megaproject estimates Discussing the view points and challenges of owner versus contract vs. engineering
