Course Overview

The energy transition has not removed the need for rigour in preventive maintenance strategy; it has added to it. Regulators and insurers increasingly want documented evidence of how this strand of energy and hydrocarbon operations is controlled. Applied research in energy and hydrocarbon operations consistently shows that early structure around the energy and hydrocarbon operations discipline reduces downstream rework. It treats preventive maintenance strategy as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Participants finish able to explain this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. Participants test their assumptions about the energy and hydrocarbon operations discipline against scenarios designed to break weak ones. The content is relevant to those who own preventive maintenance strategy and to those who are held accountable for its results. Most organisations already have a policy on the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations; far fewer can show it working. The final module sets out how progress on this area of energy and hydrocarbon operations will be evidenced six months later.
