About this Training Course The two elements which consistently remain in the forefront of every executive, tasked to manage a project, are 'Cost' and 'Time'. There is probably no disagreement or a need to prove that a strong correlation exists between Cost and Schedule. The mechanics of capturing cost during the execution is not that difficult a task, as it is when undertaking Design, Engineering, Estimating, Planning, Scheduling, and seeking financing for the project. The corporate management is expected to provide realistic, reliable and risks adjusted projections of a project's overall financial performance. This 3 full-day course and workshop is developed to make the delegates walk through the engineering formulas and equations to become a professional in managing estimates, projections, risks, uncertainties and secure financing for high value, high risk projects, from both On-shore and Offshore Oil & Gas industry segments. This course can also be offered through Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) format. Training Objectives Objectives of this Training Course: This course and the workshops are developed for the participants to gain comprehensive understanding of the field of Cost Engineering and its impact on the project execution, financing and risk management. The underlying objectives are: Enhance familiarization with mechanics of cost engineering in developing budgets and Project Cost Models. Gain understanding of diversity in financing of EPC Projects in context of Offshore and Onshore Oil & Gas projects in international arena. Identify risks associated with cost estimates and costing elements, with an objective of developing project strategies and minimizing the exposure to escalation of prices and market factors. Appreciate the correlation between cost and schedule, resulting in the delivery of contractual obligations. Develop competency to manage risks of costs and time overrun, by implementing appropriate cost control mechanism. Target Audience If you are responsible for undertaking one or more of the following functions in the Oil & Gas and Offshore & Marine Industry, you can't afford to miss this course: Management Accountants, Finance Managers, Cost Controllers, Project Directors, Contracts & Projects Managers, Estimators, Planners and Risk Managers.
