Award Honors Project Integration IPTC Excellence in Project and Excellence Integration John Donnelly, IPTC Daily Editor Award hree projects are finalists for the IPTC Excellence in Project Integration Award. The award is given to a Tproject that adds value to the industry and exemplifies strong teamwork, solid geoscience knowledge, reservoir and production engineering acumen, determined and watchful construction, and outstanding Delegates will have the facilities engineering practices. The successful project must also contain a pervasive culture of health, safety, opportunity to learn the and environment issues, and have a positive impact on the communities that it affects. details of each project and Finalists for the award are Total’s Kaombo project in Angola, Gazprom Neft’s Novoportovskoye oil and gas ask questions of the operators condensate field, and Petronas’ floating liquefied natural gas facility. Seventeen nominations representing 10 organisations and nine countries were received to be considered for this 12th IPTC Excellence in Project Integration Award. Each finalist will present the details of its project and answer audience questions in a special 90-minute session scheduled for 1100–1230 on Tuesday. The award was conceived at the first IPTC to acknowledge excellence in the industry’s increasingly complex and capital-intensive projects and to promote knowledge sharing and lessons learned. The IPTC committees and sponsoring societies believe in highlighting projects that cost more than USD 500 million and have demonstrated distinction throughout the entire exploration and production value chain. Below are descriptions of the finalist projects, in alphabetical order.
Kaombo by Total of local content in Angola as 20% of the 110 million projects hours were worked locally. Judges noted that Kaombo is an example of unprecedented project management capabilities and contractor relationships, two assets that can make or break a project. These strengths made it possible to overcome the twin challenges of lower oil prices and execution-related obstacles.
