Productivity and operational excellence in the new world throughout the project lifecycle

In 2014, the oil and gas industry woke up to a new reality, and was forced to adapt. So how do productivity and operational excellence tie into this challenging environment?

Operational excellence is like a never-ending journey that we all have to follow to become competitive and survive. It brings the notion of continuous improvement. We have to follow cost reduction and efficiency — efficiency being what we gain.

It’s also about being innovative in a different way. We can utilize existing technology and apply it in a different manner — do it better. Progress is made when we start connecting all of these pieces together.

We cannot forget the importance of having the right information for the right people at the right time.

Collaboration is important when we talk about technology. It isn’t in one single company — it’s a team effort across the industry.

Delivery is key, and we can deliver. What we also need to do is build to execute.
