The last few years have been challenging ones for the oil and gas industry with a significant drop in oil price. At the same time ageing facilities and a more dynamic market have been driving the need for becoming more efficient in the way we do our business, i.e. business as usual is not enough anymore. It is not only about individual efforts, the global response to the need for becoming more efficient has driven an increase in collaborative initiatives among the industry which we will all benefit from. A few of these initiatives have significantly improved the way we manage offshore floating structures engineering at Woodside.
