For the first time in the oil and gas industry, an Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) approach was implemented from the concept phase to the execution phase. ADNOC ensured that its stakeholders were involved from the very beginning so that they could cumulatively improve the project efficiency in terms of scope quality, schedule, and cost.
In addition to ADNOC and its Ghasha concession partners, stakeholders included various governmental organizations, FEED bidders, EPC contractors and sub-contractors, drilling operators/service providers, and environmental agencies. Representatives from each stakeholder participated in key meetings and workshops from the onset of the project jointly reviewed the project scope, shared lessons learned, and identified opportunities to improve processes.
