Abstract

Project Management was faced with new challenges in recent years developing and implementing world-class LNG and GTL projects safely, on time, and on schedule: ? Technical challenges related to the ever increasing project complexity, under sometimes harsh climate conditions, or complicated by very sour gas; ? New logistics, infrastructure and social issues, caused by the increased size of LNG and GTL projects today, sometimes managing more than 50.000 workers on site; ? Environmental and geopolitical constraints of new frontier locations; ? Optimum contracting & procurement strategies under extremely volatile market conditions; ? Quality of project professionals, supervisors and craftsmen. This session will review the way companies are managing these challenges, mitigating the associated risks, and drive for top quartile performance in project delivery.
