Case studies11
- 23.1 Case: the gas plant that reported green
- 23.2 Case: piping productivity collapse and recovery
- 23.3 Case: pipeline spread and right-of-way access
- 23.4 Case: offshore topsides and the installation window
- 23.5 Case: the turnaround that overran
- 34.1 Case 1: record welding output, but the site had no workfront
- 34.2 Case 2: material release, not productivity, was driving the piping forecast
- 34.3 Case 3: erection at 70%, test packs at 25%
- 34.4 Case 4: a progress dispute over rules of credit
- 34.5 Case 5: preparing a fabrication facility for a client capacity assessment
- 34.6 Case 6: a monthly update that looked like good news
