Course overview
Why Attend
Capital projects in oil & gas involve large investments, long execution horizons, and multiple layers of technical, commercial, and operational uncertainty. Without an integrated approach, risks are often managed in isolation, leading to incomplete visibility and suboptimal decisions.
This course provides a structured, end-to-end approach to identifying, quantifying, and integrating risk and uncertainty across the full project lifecycle. Participants will learn how to connect cost, schedule, technical, and operational risks into a unified decision-support framework.
Course Methodology
The program is highly practical and application-focused:
- Real oil & gas capital project case studies
- Interactive workshops and group exercises
- Scenario-based risk modeling discussions
- Step-by-step guided frameworks for integration
- Practical tools and templates for project use
Course Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Apply integrated risk management across capital project phases
- Identify and link multiple sources of project uncertainty
- Quantify and evaluate combined cost, schedule, and performance risks
- Develop risk-integrated project decision frameworks
- Improve capital allocation and investment decisions
- Strengthen governance and reporting of project risks
Target Audience
This course is suitable for:
- Project Managers and Project Engineers
- Capital Project and Construction Managers
- Risk and Planning Professionals
- Cost Engineers and Project Controls Specialists
- Investment and Portfolio Decision-Makers
- Oil & Gas Technical and Operational Leaders
Target Competencies
Participants will develop competencies in:
- Integrated risk and uncertainty analysis
- Quantitative and qualitative risk assessment
- Project cost and schedule risk integration
- Scenario and sensitivity analysis
- Risk-based decision-making for capital projects
- Strategic communication of project risk
