 Project Management – LNG 

The main steps to follow are:

1. Project definition. 
2. Project scope.
3. Project budgeting.
4. Project planning.
5. Project scheduling.
6. Project execution and tracking.
7. Project close‐out.

LNG facilities projects.

Cost and schedule control benefits of early planning phase risk assessment 
and risk mitigation decision‐making is well established.

Early stage risk assessment aids learning and enables decisions to be made
under conditions of less uncertainty.

Event likelihood definitions that are project specific and in some systems
involve a probability expressed as a percentage chance of occurrence.

Event consequence definitions for which the specific monetary magnitudes at

least are project specific.

The maximum impact on the final project cost and schedule occurs in the 
planning stages of the project. Once procurement and construction have 
begun it is usually too late to have major impacts that can reduce cost and
time expended.

An integrated approach to design, construction, operations, and maintenance 
is more likely to result in high performing LNG facilities.
