A poll by Aberdeen oil and gas technology firm Petrotechnics shows more than 90% of energy professionals see operational excellence as a key priority for their companies.
Petrotechnics also said 47% of respondents felt operational excellence had become more important to some of their companies’ employees in the last two years.
The Operational Excellence Index also indicated that achieving cost efficiencies and reducing risk were the main motivations for improving operational excellence.
And 92% agreed technology was an enabler for delivering sustainable operational excellence in hazardous industries.
Petrotechnics specialises in software to improve frontline operational performance and risk management in hazardous industries.
The firm’s chief executive, Phil Murray, said: “In today’s complex operating environment, pressure is mounting to improve productivity, manage costs, and reduce risk – all at the same time.
“The idea of operational excellence has been with us for some time, but now an overwhelming majority of organisations recognise its role in addressing key challenges.
“The oil, gas and petrochemicals industries are making operational excellence a priority, and it has never been more achievable – or more necessary.”
