High plant reliability is critical for every successful company, and it has never been more important than it is in the present economic climate.
The costs associated with equipment downtime and reduced production can be significant, and engineers must ensure that you are using every possible means of maximizing plant reliability and performance. Of the five fundamental ways in which engineers can approach the maintenance of plant, one of the least commonly used (because it is least commonly understood) is Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM).
The heart of an RCM approach is the creation and exploitation of reliability models that use previous failure data to predict future plant performance and hence permit the selection of a maintenance strategy and frequency optimization of planned maintenance activities. Reliability modeling as part of an integrated maintenance strategy is an approach that can no longer be sidelined or ignored by high performing companies.
This conference is a combination of instructor-led topic areas and extensive computer-based analysis and modeling. You will learn in detail about, and practice using, best-of-breed approaches to statistical failure data analysis and reliability modeling. Furthermore, throughout the conference, you will have the opportunity to analyze your own data and to ask lots of questions about how best to apply reliability analysis and modeling techniques in your organization.
The conference delivers many practically-based technical solutions to reliability improvement, and delegates will discuss these concepts and practice using them via a range of practical tools applied to real-world case studies and data.
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a management concept whereby companies integrate social and environmental concerns into their business operations and interactions with their stakeholders.

The 5-Day Mini MBA is a unique distillation of the skills that need to be acquired in order to be considered successful in modern business. Not everyone is able to devote a year or two of their time to studying for a Masters in Business Administration, but in an age of rapid change in a highly competitive environment, it is crucial to have a thorough understanding of the issues involved in the smooth and successful running of a business. The 5 Day Mini MBA Leadership & Management Masterclass is a highly intensive training course covering all the usual subjects associated with an MBA. In 5 days, a delegate will learn what normally takes a year of full-time study. The Mini MBA course is designed to provide delegates with comprehensive knowledge of fundamental, proven strategies taught as both an academic and practical exercise. As a result, the course will provide a comprehensive understanding of the skills and knowledge that will be required for any person to further develop their business knowledge and skills and even to prepare them for actual formal study for an MBA. The course is designed to be delivered either as an “In House” class for an organization’s directors and senior management or as a public class where delegates from a number of companies can learn both from the course and from one another and exchange ideas and best practice.
Large capital-intensive projects in the oil and gas industries require substantial - and mostly risky - investments in the acquisition, exploration, and subsequent operation and maintenance of new organizational assets. The decision of whether or not to invest in new capital projects in the oil and gas industry starts with critical decisions during the exploration phase of new development or the expansion of an existing field. The decision-making tools used to analyze project risk under conditions of uncertainty will help companies to determine the probability of success or loss and will drive the decision to develop or abandon the well.
Crisis management is concerned with responding to, managing, and recovering from an unforeseen event. Risk management is concerned with identifying, assessing, and mitigating any activity or event that could cause harm to the business. Risks can be strategic or operational in nature. A business continuity plan (BCP) is a process that outlines the potential impact of disaster situations on business operations. It creates policies that respond to various situations to ensure a business is able to recover quickly after a crisis.
