We look to hearing from operators, oil service companies, EPCs, energy institutes and associations, drilling companies, exploration and production companies, integration solution providers, academics, and technology innovators in this zone.

We are dedicated to self-improvement so, the Innovations Zone is an incubator for bold new project controls’ ideas, and a place where they can be openly discussed. It provides a space for our experts from across the professions to share concepts for managing projects, with new ways of thinking. In this way, 'best practice' rises to the top and new ideas are perfected.

The Construction Zone aims to discuss the application of Project Controls on large construction projects in addition to the utilisation of various digital tools, technologies, and contracts involved along with their application on real-life projects and/or the latest advancements.
There will be an equal emphasis on carbon efficiency highlighting the need for continuous measurement and management of carbon through all project stages, basing project decisions on CO2 emissions as well as health, safety, cost, time and quality.

Project controls and project management are not the same things; in fact, project controls are a function of project management. The zone looks to discuss topics on how the effective application of Project Controls would allow the right information flow to all stakeholders, including Project Management, to take the right decisions at the right time for a successful project outcome.
In this zone, we look to discuss various models discussing integration between Project Controls and Project Management along with case studies to demonstrate the benefits of this approach.

This stream discusses the fundamental elements of project controls’ disciplines in detail. It provides further education and understanding aimed for beginners and intermediate project controls’ professionals. This is an exceptional opportunity for individuals who have just entered the project controls’ profession, or who wish to gain insight on the various sub-functions of project controls.
