Past event: Interface Management for Capital Projects Summit

Successful delivery of capital projects on time and within budget

Burgeoning complexities in nearly all capital projects have highlighted the need for robust interface management. In oil and gas added concerns such as oil price volatility have instigated stringent budget allowances, meaning mega projects have an increased likelihood of being delayed and costing up to billions of dollars in overrun costs.

Interface Managers from around the globe will gather in Amsterdam to discuss the emerging interface management discipline, including its role in the bigger picture, setting coherent roles and responsibilities and multiple contract management. With the impending publication of the industry driven Interface Handbook, 2015 will showcase ground breaking new developments along with international case studies from North America, the Middle East and Europe.

You weren't able to make it last year? Don't miss out on the 2015 event! Join us for the upcoming Interface Management for Capital Projects Summit where industry leaders will gather to discuss define interface management and understand why it is critical in the bigger picture, plan an effective strategy and get everyone on board, and turn theory into practice for successful day-to-day interface management.


Topics to be addressed at the upcoming summit include:

  • Total evaluate contractor strategy and stakeholder buy-in at interface initialisation
  • PEMEX develop interface management processes on Mexico's first deep sea development project
  • AMEC Foster Wheeler identify interface points early for efficient communication and to meet deadlines
  • ENI set coherent roles, responsibilities and battery limits, and transparent contractor and company communication
  • Saudi Aramco proactively manage interface issues before they become critical


"In the (oil and gas) industry we have the expression - first we hire the scapegoat."
-Edward W. Merrow, CEO, Independent Project Analysis, on his observed tendency of many owners of unsuccessful oil and gas mega projects to shift blame onto contractors when project execution founders.
