Preamble
Christopher Columbus was one of the first modem Project Managers, but probably not the best organised. Churchill once said (at least it is reported) : "In fact, Christopher Columbus did not know where he was, nor where he was going, how long his voyage would last, or how much it would cost, and moreover, somebody else was paying the bill".
In so saying, Churchill set out the standard rules of Project Management which aim to know at any moment :
° Where you are.
° Where you want to go.
° How long it will take.
° How much it will cost.
We have no difficulty in comparing the realization of a Project with an expedition towards the unknown. Fortunately, since 1492, Project Management has made some progress. Men have been sent to the moon, and they have even succeeded in returning.
However, in spite of this progress, it happens that even today Projects see their initial objective substantially modified during their realization. This often happens in a somewhat disorganised way and is usually associated with an uncertain delay in the completion date and an uncontrolled increase in the budget.
The object of this book is to provide some understanding and guidelines on the way medium-sized and large Projects in an international environment can be initiated and managed.

The purpose of this book is to provide some understanding and guidelines on the way medium sized and large Projects in an international environment can be initiated and managed. Its content is based on the collective experience of the authors obtained du ring the last forty years with an International Oil & Cas Company, with the rest spent with engineering and construction contractors. The experience of the authors in the development of oil and gas fields (onshore and offshore) may usefully inspire the management of large projects in other domains of activity : it is certainly right for the nuclear industry, the chemical industry and most process industries. This book covers all the various steps and aspects of a Project the risks related to a Project, the various phases of a Project, the Project organization, the contractuel issues, the HSE objectives and human dimension, the scheduling of a Project, the cost monitoring, the quality control and quality assurance aspects and the training issues.
