High-impact economics of project intelligence for global energy infrastructure development
Updated: June 10, 2005
The oil and gas business always has required substantial capital investment with major risk components. Over the next several decades, these investments will extend into existing and emerging markets. Moreover, the industry is under considerable pressure to generate better shareholder returns and is looking for ways to increase project Net Present Value (NPV).
Project Intelligence is a new solution currently deployed to solve these major issues. Using an inexpensive, easily deployed software solution, energy firms and their engineering and construction partners have a powerful set of tools that enable significant process change. This solution holds the promise of dramatically affecting organizational financial performance by ensuring that expensive, global infrastructure construction projects effectively use available capital. By providing a 360-degree view into the project processes, stakeholders are provided the data and information they need, in a timely manner, to make better decisions.
