油气资源作为国家战略资源,直接影响着中国经济运行的安全稳定。随着中国境内油气建设项目的饱和,越来越多的油气建设单位积极响应国家“一带一路”倡议,加大进军境外油气项目建设的步伐,中资油气建设单位利用较低的人工成本和较好的施工质量,获得了不少境外油气建设发起单位的青睐。但近年来受到全球新冠肺炎疫情、油气价格波动等因素的影响,境外油气建设发起单位不断压减项目投资,中资油气建设单位中标难度越来越大,执行成本和项目利润越来越难以控制,以传统方式实施单一方面的成本控制已难以实现项目建设的目标。为了确保中资油气建设单位能顺利获得境外油气项目,保证一定的项目利润,基于某建设单位的各种国际先进管理理念,结合自身在境外积累的经验,以职业项目管理的理念,从油气项目全建设周期的各阶段,通过列举一系列重要策划的重点、难点的方式,引导中资油气建设单位做好全建设周期提质增效策划。

As a national strategic resource, oil and gas resources affect the safety and stability of China’s economy directly. With the saturation of domestic oil and gas construction projects, more and more oil and gas construction companies are actively responding to the country’s Belt and Road Initiative and increasing their share in overseas oil and gas operations. With the pace of project construction, Chinese-funded oil and gas construction companies have won the favor of many overseas oil and gas project sponsors by taking advantage of their lower labor costs and better construction quality. However, in recent years, affected by the complex environment such as the global COVID-19 epidemic and oil and gas price fluctuations, the overseas sponsors of oil and gas projects have been reducing capital investment, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to win project tenders. Furthermore project execution cost and profit margin become hard to manage. It is difficult to meet the goal of project development by implementing just a single aspect of cost control. In order to ensure that Chinese oil and gas construction companies can successfully won projects overseas and achieve reasonable project profits, this article develops a concept of professional project management to guide oil and gas engineering construction companies to plan for an optimum development life cycle as a strategy to improve project quality and increase profit margin. The concept is based on our own overseas experience, incorporating various international advanced management concepts of an engineering construction company, considering all development phases of the life cycle of oil and gas projects. For each stage of the project life cycle, by listing a series of important planning points and expected difficulties, this professional project management concept guides Chinese oil and gas engineering construction companies to achieve the goals of improving project quality and execution efficiency throughout the project life cycle.
