Capital Projects Under Pressure: Trends, Challenges, and Solutions
Date & Time
Wednesday, April 9, 2025, 1:15 PM - 2:00 PM
Brett Schroeder
Description

Several recent industry studies point to a significant increase in capital expenditures in an environment where projects are already currently facing significant cost escalation, labor constraints, and continuing supply chain issues. Additionally, the International Energy Agency is forecasting that annual energy investment will surpass pre-pandemic levels of just over $1.5 trillion to nearly $2 trillion between 2025 and 2030, with climate policy having a major impact on investment in energy. This business-critical keynote will share insights from a recent AP-Networks survey of US Oil and Gas megaprojects (over $1 billion) demonstrating the importance of having corporate governance and assurance processes in place. Brett will provide you with timely and practical knowledge on: 

  • Recent trends in capital project performance,  

  • Key factors driving overruns, and  

  • Practices to help improve predictability.
