COST ESTIMATION METHODS FOR OIL & GAS PROJECTS
– PRACTICE OF QUESTOR SOFTWARE
DURATION: 5 DAYS
WHO SHOULD ATTEND THE COURSE?Anyone requiring a comprehensive understanding of the various elements necessary for an upstream Oil & Gas project cost estimate: project
engineers and managers, petroleum architects, engineers in charge of modification/extension of existing facilities, R&D engineers…
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
The training program will provide participants with a structured and comprehensive approach towards project cost estimation.
Upon completions of the course, participants:
• know how to technically define a project for a comprehensive cost estimate,
• understand the role of regional project cost estimates and “internal cost tools”,
• understand the need for a defined contractual strategy and basis for contingency values,
• know how to use QUESTOR.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT – Application to Oil & Gas upstream activi ties
DURATION: 5 DAYS
WHO SHOULD ATTEND THE COURSE?Anyone requiring a comprehensive understanding of Oil & Gas upstream project management techniques.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
To provide participants with a broader understanding of project management, its objectives, roles and techniques.The course will present the constraints, challenges and industry practices in connection with the hydrocarbon field development from Discovery to First Oil/Gas. It
will be illustrated by the presentation of major development projects and the projection of several projects movies and/or pictures. Practical case studies are
illustrating the magisterial course.
COURSE CONTENT
PETROLEUM ECONOMICS AND FIELD EVALUATION PROCESS 0.50 dayIntroduction to the main elements used in connection with the economics in the petroleum industry: reserves, associations, economic analysis,
petroleum contracts
Field evaluation process from discovery to decision to develop: Field evaluation, Preliminary studies (feasibility and conceptual study – Example of
Dunbar project), Front End Engineering, Pre-project activities and project execution plan, key documents, specifications, HSE fundamentals (HAZOP,
Technical review), decision to develop.
Fundamentals of cost estimating
PROJECT ORGANIZATION
0.50 dayProject key issues, characteristics and objectives
Different Oil & Gas project organizations - Relationship between the project content, and it’s technical challenges, the contractor’s market conditions, on
one hand, and the sponsors, contractor’s organization etc on the another hand
Client’s organization for Basic Engineering, Detail Engineering, Procurement, Yard Fabrication, Onshore Works, Offshore Works, Commissioning
Role of project leader and communication within the project team
Exercise: Case simulation for project organization
CONTRACTING STRATEGY AND CONTRACTS 1.00 dayDifferent contract types in view of the target, service types, and degree of responsibility of the different involved parties.
Advantages and disadvantages of the different types
Contractual strategy: Contractual Plan Option (reimbursable, at cost + fee, lump sum), Options comparison, and how to prepare a contractual strategy?
Four main types of contractual strategy: Separate Contracts, EPSC, EPSCC, Turn Key Contracts
Contracts General: Contract Definition, Contract Documents (Agreements, Annexes, Exhibits), Call for Tender procedure, Operator and Contractor
objectives, Risks in contract performances, HSE
Contracts Particular Conditions: Review of very key but specific conditions such as contract law, Independent Contractor, Correctness and Sufficiency
