INTRODUCTION
The most demanding and challenging aspects of any project lie in effective project control and governance, and at the heart of project control is risk management. This is especially true in the oil and gas industry, where project budgets run into billions of dollars and the risk to human life is an ever-present concern. In a nutshell, the better controlled a project is, the less exposed it is to risk and the more likely it is to be delivered on time, within budget, and without any injuries.
This training course examines the fundamental principles of project control, governance, and risk management, which forms the bedrock of success for every project. While it is true that the most important element of successful project delivery is having a robust plan in place, the most important part of that plan is being able to control the project throughout its lifecycle, through effective change control and risk management methods.
