      Abstract

      This book guides the reader through the redesign elements for the internal operating model of an enterprise in the oil and gas sector – including integrated oil companies (IOCs), majors and independents, national oil companies (NOCs), and services companies in the upstream supply chain. For simplicity, this book references these companies as Exploration and Production (E&P) companies.

      A culmination of disruptive forces and evolutionary change in the oil and gas industry has conspired together to make the case for a new low‐cost operating model. The industry has experienced tremendous evolution in terms of: our understanding of the underlying global resource base, the nature of its ownership and principal stakeholders, technologies and methods for resource development, and economics and business models. While companies have been very focused on cost and productivity, beyond incremental accommodations to change, there has been little effort to redesign and transform internal enterprise operating models. Moreover, unlike other industries that have undertaken operating model transformations in response to disruptive industry forces, upstream companies rarely undertake operating model change on a systematic or enterprisewide basis, except post‐merger integrations.

      The industry has made great strides, but now must sort through:

      • What different to do

      • How to do it differently

      Operating models and operational excellence must now be on everyone's agenda – changes can yield profound cost savings and operating efficiencies. However, change is much easier to plan than to implement, and operating model redesign is rarely executed on an organizationwide basis.

      Introduction

      A culmination of disruptive forces and evolutionary change in the oil and gas industry have conspired together to make the case for a new, low‐cost operating model. The industry has experienced tremendous evolution in terms of our understanding of the underlying global resource base, the nature of its ownership and principal stakeholders, technologies and methods for resource development, and the economics and business models.

      The industry was focused on cost and productivity even before the 2014 collapse in oil prices, but beyond incremental accommodations in response to change there has been little effort to redesign and transform internal enterprise operating models. Unlike other industries that have undertaken operating model transformations in response to disruptive industry forces, upstream companies rarely undertake operating model change on a systematic or enterprisewide basis.

      A VITAL INDUSTRY

      Notwithstanding tremendous advances in renewable energy, hybrids, and electric vehicles (EVs), and agreement among our world leaders to make great strides on behalf of climate change, oil and gas companies are, and will continue to be, an important contributor to the world's energy needs and to the world's economy. Most forecasts, even under aggressive growth trajectories for renewables, still call upon the upstream for one‐half or more of our energy in 20 years.1

In the United States, natural gas and petroleum have played an important role in our energy mix for more than 100 years.2 With the benefit of more than $1.5 trillion over the past 10 years, accounting for about one‐third of all new power generation capacity, renewables now represent a small but important source of energy (see Figure 1.1). Wind and solar provide 5 percent of all electricity consumed in the United States (nuclear power accounts for 63 percent of all non–carbon‐dioxide
