Course Overview
Most recovery effort on shale gas and drilling platform projects is spent on problems that were visible early. Projects involving platform projects are rarely late all at once; they are late a day at a time. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place this strand of project and portfolio delivery among the areas with the widest performance spread. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of shale gas and drilling platform projects and supervised application. The programme is built to be used, and every section of the practice within project and portfolio delivery it covers ends in something applicable. Most organisations already have a policy on platform projects; far fewer can show it working. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what shale gas and drilling platform projects has actually achieved. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for platform projects. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for this part of project and portfolio delivery rather than a set of notes.
