Advisian studied the performance of risk-based cost estimating based on data obtained from 23 water infrastructure projects delivered by several water authorities in NSW over the period 2002 - 2012
This document discusses four measures of risk: (1) Individual Risk, which is the probability of a person becoming a fatality within a defined period; (2) Location Specific Individual Risk, which is the likelihood of a fatality at a particular location based on continuous exposure over a year; (3) Potential Loss of Life/Societal Risk, which represents the aggregation of individual risk levels for all exposed persons; and (4) Implied Cost to Avert a Fatality, which is derived from the cost of a risk reduction measure divided by the estimated risk benefit. The document cautions that risk criteria and numbers should be used as a tool to inform arguments rather than provide ultimate answers, and recommends transparent,

As construction projects continue to increase in size and complexity, so does the inherent risk that organizations must take on to win work. As a result of globalization in the capital construction industry, organizations are faced with the challenge of executing projects under tighter budgets and highly compressed schedules. This has led to thinner profit margins and the increased need for competitive cost positioning. This presentation seeks to demonstrate the value of a robust risk management framework at all levels of an organization. This includes:
• Risk management for identifying corporate strategy and market opportunities
• Using risk assessment to establish corporate risk reserves
• Refining the estimate process at the bid stage by using risk analysis to eliminate the “compounding contingency” effect
• Analyzing and quantifying ongoing project risk exposure
• How to involve your client in the risk management process

Risk is the big topic of conversation in the compliance industry. Businesses are moving at a faster rate and operations continue to increase in complexity, and yet the need for compliance is stronger than ever. So we need to implement a systematic and objective means to maintain compliance, and keep up with the pace of business.
In just 5 minutes, you'll learn why Risk Assessment is the new benchmark, and how to create a simple Risk Matrix for use in your compliance efforts.
This document discusses various methods for analyzing risks in projects. It describes qualitative and quantitative risk analysis. Qualitative risk analysis involves prioritizing risks based on probability and impact, often using descriptive scales. Quantitative risk analysis uses numerical scales to measure probability and impact, and techniques like expected monetary value analysis to assign numeric estimates of risk impact. The document provides examples of probability and impact assessment scales, and explains how to use a risk assessment matrix to categorize risk levels.
This document summarizes an asset integrity management presentation given by Dr. Kirsten Oliver at the Trinidad & Tobago Energy Conference in January 2018. The presentation addressed challenges in managing aging brownfield assets, including inconsistent data, siloed approaches, and budget constraints. It advocated adopting a standardized approach to integrity management across all asset types and stages. Common integrity issues discussed included non-compliance during design, construction, and operation due to cost-cutting or schedule pressures. The presentation concluded by emphasizing the importance of understanding an organization's drivers for improvement and measuring compliance with integrity procedures.
In this presentation, Joe and Brian contrast traditional risk assessment with some emerging techniques that use internal and market risk event (incident) data to drive a more accurate risk model.

The document outlines an agenda for a risk management workshop being conducted by PT. Berau Coal, including introducing risk management terms and methodologies, providing an understanding of the need for risk management, and introducing a Risk Assessment Methodology to be adopted. Objectives of the workshop are to familiarize key personnel with risk assessment principles and ensure they can perform risk assessments for operations. The workshop will cover topics such as hazard identification, risk assessment methodologies, and PT. Berau Coal's specific risk assessment procedure.
The document discusses the ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practicable) principle for reducing safety risks. ALARP requires that risks are reduced to a level that is as low as reasonably possible, between unacceptably high risk and negligible risk. Further risk reduction measures in the ALARP region should be considered to drive residual risk down. The ALARP level is reached when further risk reduction becomes disproportionately costly compared to the risk reduction benefit. The key to a convincing ALARP assessment is documented consideration of alternative improvement options at each project phase to reach a balanced, defensible decision about managing risk.
This document provides an overview of risk assessment and management. It introduces risk management and identifies types and categories of risk. It then outlines the procedure for managing risk, including planning, identification, assessment, monitoring, and tracking. Tools and practices for risk analysis are presented, including impact analysis, probability analysis, risk mitigation strategies, and qualitative and quantitative analysis. Stakeholder engagement in risk appetite and tolerance is discussed.
Not only do businesses need clear terms of reference and defined risk levels for their travel safety strategies, the risk levels cannot be generic and must specifically address the hazards for each traveler, journey, destination, and activity. Economic factors that could make safety measures reasonably practicable must also be considered. There must be clear evaluation of risk before and after to demonstrate reasonable practicability as required by law. Adaptive risk processes are needed as travel involves constant change.

The Security Practitioner of the FutureResolver Inc.
In the face of changing business needs and threat environments, companies, organizations and individuals will continue to encounter increasingly diverse and sophisticated risks from an equally broad range of adversaries. These adversaries are equipped as never before supported by education, experience, publicly available critical information and the technology to bring their efforts to realization. Tomorrow’s security practitioner will need an array of integrated tools to effectively prepare for and counter tomorrow’s adversary. These “tools” will always include some traditional tried and proven practices; however, the need for practitioners to think critically, make risk-based decisions, implement leading practice solutions and define security optimization is required.

Advanced project planning techniques like risk analysis, Monte Carlo simulation, and quality rapid product development can improve project success rates. These techniques quantify potential impacts of risks and uncertainty on schedule and budget to set realistic baselines with defined confidence levels. While single point estimates provide only around 50% confidence, simulations can increase confidence to 80% with minor increases to time and cost. This provides sponsors with data to properly plan reserves and incentives, motivating teams and creating a collaborative environment focused on meeting goals. Sensitivity reports also identify critical paths needing attention to further reduce risks.

Notes on IT programmatic risk in 5 not so easy piecesGlen Alleman
Risk management in the IT business is similar to risk management most domains. Here's a starting point for understanding the steps needed to manage risk
C:\documents and settings\ckampschulte\desktop\in sync risk range analysisInSync Conference
This document summarizes and compares two capital projects, Case A and Case B, in terms of their risk management approaches. Case A took a single point estimate approach which resulted in fixed contingency amounts, while Case B took a range analysis workshop approach to identify and quantify risks. Case B developed cost and schedule ranges and analyzed key risk drivers, allowing them to model outcomes more accurately. Best practice for risk analysis involves taking a risk-driven, integrated cost-schedule approach to understand contingency needs and prioritize top risks.
Project Controls Expo 18th Nov 2014 - "Cost Estimate Risk Analysis: For Capit...Project Controls Expo
Once a project or a turnaround team has developed a cost estimate, they are usually required to assign an accuracy range to the estimate and calculate the contingency. Some teams take a simplistic view that if the design package has been developed to a certain standard or class, then the accuracy range can be assigned according to common rules of thumb. However, this route can bypass the requirement to calculate contingency, and it looks at only the “systemic” uncertainty in the estimate, while ignoring any “project specific” uncertainty and risk. In addition, copious evidence over the past 30 years shows that, if left unguided, teams are generally over-optimistic and hence under-estimate the contingency required and assign too tight an accuracy range. If we look at the common methodologies used by teams, there are a number of common misconceptions and errors that contribute to this under-estimation.
This document provides an overview of risk-adjusted estimating techniques for quantifying and accounting for uncertainty in project cost estimates. It discusses point estimating, uncertainty in estimates, and different types of risks including aleatory, systemic, and project-specific risks. It also covers quantifying uncertainty through qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis using historical data, and Monte Carlo simulation. The document emphasizes that simply adding individual estimates does not accurately capture total project uncertainty and risk, and that simulation methods are better for estimating overall program costs.
1) Underperformance of wind farms has been a major issue, with typical underperformance around 10-11% below the P50 estimates from wind resource assessments. This underperformance can significantly impact project finances.
2) In response to underperformance issues and other market changes from 2006-2007, lenders increased credit requirements like minimum debt service coverage ratios and interest rates, while equity investors increased expected returns.
3) Overcompensating for underperformance risk by excessive increases to credit terms or equity returns could harm projects. The P50 estimates need to be addressed directly through improved engineering practices, not through financial terms.
The document discusses how software provides value for many industries and the economy. However, projects often experience cost overruns, delays, and failures to deliver value efficiently. The document argues that development costs, schedules, and values are uncertain and best viewed as ranges rather than single estimates. Seeing projects this way allows focusing on continuously improving estimates and reducing risks to better ensure delivery of value over the project lifecycle. Tailoring governance approaches to different project types based on their risks and opportunities for discovery can help optimize value creation.
The document discusses how software provides value for other industries and the challenges of efficiently delivering that value. While estimates of costs and schedules are often inaccurate, focusing only on avoiding overruns limits opportunities. Instead, engineering principles can be applied to create value by treating costs and benefits as random variables, reducing uncertainty over time, and increasing potential upside benefits. Tailoring governance approaches based on risk areas can improve value delivery.
Risk management is a process that allows project risks to be understood and proactively managed. It aims to maximize the chances of a project achieving its objectives by minimizing threats and maximizing opportunities. The key steps in the risk management process are to identify risks, analyze them, plan responses, implement responses, monitor progress and inform decision making. Undertaking risk management provides confidence to management that projects are being effectively managed and supports achieving project success.
This document discusses risk analysis in investment. It defines risk as the potential for losing value and discusses different types of risk like financial risk and project-specific risk. It also outlines various techniques used for risk analysis like sensitivity analysis, probability distribution approach, and payback period. As an example, it shows how adjusting the discount rate for risk can impact a project's net present value. Overall, the document provides an overview of risk analysis in investments, outlining key concepts like different risk types and techniques used to evaluate risk.

What is Probabilistic Estimating, and Why do it?
It shows the level of confidence in the project being delivered within the recommended estimate – ranging to P2 to P98 P = % Probability
This document discusses cost and schedule overruns that are common in publicly-funded programs. It proposes establishing cost and schedule estimates based on the historical variability of similar past programs, and updating estimates periodically with risks, to increase the probability of on-target program delivery. Specific changes are recommended to how initial estimates are created and agreed upon, including developing activity-based estimates adjusted for issues on past programs. Programs should be budgeted at a 70% probability of meeting cost and schedule targets using this joint confidence level approach. This involves changes to estimating, acquisition, and contracting processes.
Delivering programs with less capability than promised, while exceeding the cost and planned durations, distorts decision making, contributes to increasing cost growth to other programs, undermines the Federal government’s credibility with taxpayers and contributes to the public’s negative support for these programs.
Many reasons have been hypothesized and documented for cost and schedule growth. The authors review some of these reasons, and propose that government and contractors use the historical variability of the past programs to establish cost and schedule estimates at the outset and periodically update these estimates with up-to-date risks, to increase the probability of program success. For this to happen, the authors recommend changes to estimating, acquisition and contracting processes.
Cure for cost and schedule growth (submitted)Glen Alleman
This document discusses ways to reduce unanticipated cost and schedule growth on public programs. It recommends that programs establish initial cost and schedule estimates based on the variability seen on historical similar programs, and budget programs at a 70% probability of meeting cost and schedule targets. This would involve developing activity-based estimates adjusted for past program issues, and getting contractor input on meeting targets. The document argues this approach could help control unanticipated growth if estimates are set high enough based on historical data.

What are risks?
Project Management Institute definition of risk:
“an uncertain event or condition that, if it occurs, has a positive or negative effect on at least one project objective“ (i.e. scope, time, cost, quality, safety, etc…)
2
What are risks?
My Definition of risk:
“A negative risk event is something that has not yet happened on your project, but if it did happen it would negatively impact your project to the extent that it would be worthwhile to reduce the likelihood that it will occur or reduce the negative impact if it occurred”
“A positive risk event is something that has not yet happened on your project, but if it did happen it would positively impact your project to the extent that it would be worthwhile to increase the likelihood that it will occur or increase the positive impact if it occurred”
3
Risk/Issue/Action?
4
(Risk)
An undesirable event that has not yet happened
(Issue)
An undesirable event that has happened and needs attention
(Action)
Work that needs to be done
Which of the following are risks?
The project may go over budget
I ran over a pot hole coming into work today and my tire is flat
Decisions in the site engineering area are not being made in a timely manner
Using unproven technology may require frequent re-design work resulting in a schedule delay
Which of the following are risks?
The project may go over budget
This is more of an impact than a risk. There are many reasons why a project may go over budget. The real question is what are the things that would cause you to go over budget? The answer to this question is the risk. Here are some examples of a better way to write this risk statement:
It may take more time than planned to secure internal employees to work on this project which will require us to hire consultants resulting in a cost overrun on the project.
The contractor productivity level may be less than quoted in the contract resulting in a cost overrun.
Which of the following are risks?
I ran over a pot hole coming into work today and my tire is flat
This is not a risk because it already happened. It has now become an issue that you have to deal with. Time to execute your contingency plan – hopefully you have a spare or AAA.
Which of the following are risks?
Decisions in the site engineering area are not being made in a timely manner
This is not a risk because it already happened. Decisions are already not being made timely, so the risk has occurred. It has now become an issue that you have to deal with.
Which of the following are risks?
Using unproven technology may require frequent re-design work resulting in a schedule delay
This is a risk.

This document presents a Pseudo Dry Gas (PDG) separation technology that can significantly increase the distance that remote gas fields can be tied back to shore. The technology uses compact inline separators and small pumps to remove liquids from the gas stream, allowing larger diameter pipelines that experience lower pressure drops over long distances. A case study shows how applying this technology to a 170km trunkline could increase production by over 160 MMscfd and generate an additional $10 billion in revenue by reducing wellhead pressures. The system is presented as a lower-cost alternative to standard subsea tiebacks or using floating production vessels for fields located further than current tieback limits.
Chris Lovelock shares how portfolio management thinking is evolving along with available technology to optimise a portfolio for improved strategic value from capital.
Unlocking the potential of appalachian ethaneAdvisian
Appalachia has significant untapped ethane potential due to large shale gas reserves containing high ethane content. While some ethane is currently exported or transported to Gulf Coast markets, further developing the regional petrochemical industry could unlock economic benefits. An estimated $10 billion in midstream infrastructure is needed, including for gas processing, ethane fractionation, storage, and pipelines. This would enable increased ethane production to fuel 4-6 additional world-scale crackers by 2030 and create thousands of construction and plant jobs.

It provides insight into which safety efforts are effective and highlights areas for companies to focus on to minimize incidents.
Human factors - what role should they play in Responsible CareAdvisian
Tony Geraghty's presentation examines how considering human factors can enhance safety and performance excellence in the chemical industry. It discusses James Reason's model of classifying human errors and using reliability centered maintenance (RCM) to identify vulnerabilities. The presentation provides examples of how an RCM analysis revealed issues like commissioning errors and inappropriate maintenance practices, and how addressing these issues improved a gas compressor fleet's reliability and availability. Geraghty argues that regularly questioning understanding of operations can help ensure responsible chemical production and management.
Technologies like artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, distributed ledger technology, and augmented reality are converging and dramatically impacting the energy sector. This convergence is enabling (1) more automated and flexible asset management, operations, and field work; (2) intelligent optimization of distributed energy resources, networks, and markets; and (3) new automated and personalized services for consumers. The synergies between these technologies have the potential to further drive efficiencies and enhance services for energy companies and consumers. However, ensuring security as these systems become more interconnected will be a key consideration.
This document discusses opportunities for growth and development in the Ohio River Valley region through investments in petrochemical and downstream energy projects. It outlines some of the key strengths of the region, including abundant and low-cost natural gas feedstocks, proximity to large consumer markets, and potential for infrastructure investments. However, it also notes challenges such as midstream transportation bottlenecks, high construction costs, and workforce issues. The document advocates for collaboration across the public and private sectors to help navigate risks and maximize opportunities through coordinated infrastructure planning, financing models, and other enablers of major project development.

Broader industries have seen improved performance across the whole of asset lifecycle with the extensive application of digital technologies and an increase in the integration of information systems. We explain how.
Are we doing enough to unlock shared value in capital projects?Advisian
This document discusses capital investment trends in the petrochemical industry in North America. It notes that significant investments totaling $350-400 billion will be made in downstream and petrochemical projects over the next 5 years, with $85-100 billion spent on new utilities alone. However, it suggests the industry has not fully explored collaboration models to reduce costs and risks, such as partnering with third parties to develop non-core assets like water and power utilities. The document advocates that advisors can help identify opportunities for collaborative projects across the industrial utility value chain to optimize capital allocation and risks.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

Harnessing WebAssembly for Real-time Stateless Streaming PipelinesChristina Lin
Traditionally, dealing with real-time data pipelines has involved significant overhead, even for straightforward tasks like data transformation or masking. However, in this talk, we’ll venture into the dynamic realm of WebAssembly (WASM) and discover how it can revolutionize the creation of stateless streaming pipelines within a Kafka (Redpanda) broker. These pipelines are adept at managing low-latency, high-data-volume scenarios.
DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

Risk-based cost
estimating for water
infrastructure projects –
does it stack up?
2. Inaccurate cost estimates can lead to
suboptimal project selection, inefficient
budget management and disruption to
the delivery of other essential projects.
3. To overcome these issues and improve
the management of their investment
programs, a number of NSW water
authorities have adopted a stochastic
approach to estimating: Risk-based
cost estimating (RBCE).
5. What is it?
A stochastic process utilising Monte-Carlo Simulation
modelling to reflect the degree of uncertainty (risk
and opportunity) associated with a cost estimate.

Final actual project cost
Actual cost incurred by the water
authority at completion of the
project; includes initial contract
price, any variations paid and
client costs
Data collected from each project included:
Project timing data
Date when the estimate was
prepared, contract award date
and the date of practical
completion
Original cost estimate
Prepared at project appraisal

11. Data Adjustments
Adjustments were made to ensure a ‘like-for-like’ comparison between budget and
actual project cost. These included:
Escalation adjustment to account for
the difference between base period
of estimate and actual project
delivery timeframe
Increased or decreased
scope change
13. Findings 1: How accurate
are RBCE budgets?
• The water projects in the studies sample
performed well compared to other studies
• Cost underruns were found to occur more
frequently than overruns
• Weighted average of projects under
budget was 8.5%
• Out of the 23 projects:
• 17% of projects experienced cost
overruns
• 83% of projects were on
or under budget

14. Findings 2: RBCE success
in forecasting outcomes
The main output from the RBCE process is not
a single estimate; it is a range of potential
outcomes.
• The range of outcomes were between the
P1 to P99 value
• Only 57% of the sample fell within the
expected range
Possible causes:
• Project Managers ‘anchor’ on the base
estimate (i.e. they’re not willing to adjust
or expand the range to capture the best
and worst case scenario)
• Results in the forecasted range are too
narrow to capture the true level of
uncertainty

15. Findings 3: Reliability of
confidence from RBCE
A key feature of the RBCE process is that it
provides a level of confidence for each value
in the range of potential project outcomes.
• Between P50 and P90, confidence levels
in the process were reliable

16. Findings 3: Reliability of
confidence from RBCE
Below the P50 and above the P90 level there
was a wide difference between the expected
and the actual result.
This suggests:
• The process isn’t placing enough focus on
identifying opportunities
• The process isn’t capturing the ‘extreme
risks’ (low likelihood and/or very high
consequence)
A possible explanation could be that it
may not be worth the effort of accurately
estimating figures outside of the P50
and P90 range (which are used the
most often).

17. Findings 4: The Portfolio
Perspective
Public agencies delivering projects face the
dual challenge of neither exceeding their
allocated funding nor significantly
underspending the allocated funding.
• Results highlighted an opportunity for
more efficient contingency allocation
• Agencies could set a less conservative P-
value as the budget and reduce the
portfolio cost underrun
• Means accepting that a greater number
of projects will overrun vs individual
project budgets, but the overall
portfolio is sufficient to deliver all
projects
• Provides ability to invest this
released contingency on other
valuable projects or agency

19. Issues relating to cognitive bias
or delusions - such as
anchoring and adjustment -
affected the results of the
process.
This was particularly
highlighted by the limitations
to fully capture the range of
expected outcomes and in
producing reliable confidence
levels below the P50 and
above the P90 levels.
This can be mitigated by
placing more emphasis on
identifying key opportunities
rather than only focusing on
risks, as well as calibration
techniques and training.
