Enhanced Field Development Solutions Technology evaluation, qualification and development planning Are you missing the boat - or avoiding a shipwreck? New technologies bring new opportunities - and risks. Your company needs world-class technical professionals who can evaluate and qualify new technologies, as well as highlyeffective technology development strategies that address uncertainties and complexities. If your company is considering the potential development or deployment of new technology, how do you know whether you can or should take the risk? You routinely make decisions regarding technology evaluation, qualification and development planning. Do you use a disciplined method to consider the issues, or a strategic path forward? When Quality Decision-Making (QDM) practices are employed, corporate leaders can be assured that: •
A rational, auditable basis for decisions is defined and documented
•
Precious resources (people, money and time) will not be wasted
•
There is a greater chance that optimal solutions and strategies will be revealed
•
Teams will be mobilized with greater commitment to the plan and objectives
•
The likelihood of a positive outcome will be greatly enhanced.

Powerful methods for assessing the ‘value of information’ provide an expected return perspective on technology development initiatives. WorleyParsons and INTECSEA bring more than world-class engineering capability to support your new technology initiatives.
Our decision-support teams will help your company realize the benefits of QDM practices by: •
Employing proven Decision & Risk Analysis (D&RA) methods and tools
•
Organizing and leading critical framing workshops with your Decision Executives as well as the relevant Subject Matter Experts
•
Revealing objectives, policies, constraints and priorities of key stakeholders who will eventually judge success
•
Brainstorming, organizing and filtering strategies and technical solutions
•
Establishing viable decision and investment strategy themes and timelines
•
Clearly assessing and valuing prospects for success or failure; before major technology development investments are made.
Your company’s success depends on high-quality decision-making, but many technology initiatives fall into well-known decision-making traps; traps that can be avoided when properly anticipated.
The investigation methods applied will depend upon your company’s needs while taking full advantage of proven, real-world tested models for success. We engage the key stakeholders through workshops, interviews and in-depth surveying protocols to tailor investigations and strategic plans to your needs. Subsurface, subsea, processing, pipelines, flowlines, risers and floating systems expertise can be engaged as needed to help you realize the greatest value from your offshore assets. Our teams have helped many companies achieve their most challenging technological advances: •
Technology evaluations for subsea multiphase pumps (Gulf of Mexico, 2006-2008)
•
Arctic and Sub Arctic Subsea Processing Technology JIP (2008-2011)
•
Subsea canyon crossing options and evaluation methods assessment (Western Australia, 2012)
•
New deep water floating platform concepts for harsh environments (since 2005)
•
Ultra-deep water export riser and pipeline systems for major GoM partnership.
