Over 50 oil and gas company representatives have been nominated as part of a key network re-launch that Oil & Gas UK is spearheading under its Efficiency Task Force (ETF).

Set up in 2015, the Continuous Improvement Network looks to better understand the nature of efficiency in the UKCS by examining collaborative and continuous improvement practices. Specifically, it seeks to understand what promotes and hinders improvement in the basin.

Hosted by Brian Rodger of Nexen, the event will be held on Monday, October 29, and aims to re-energise continuous improvement experts from across the supply chain, whilst providing an update on the work of the ETF to date.

Mariesha Jaffray, Oil & Gas UK’s Continuous Improvement Manager will be joined by Adrian Wookey from ECITB (Engineering Construction Industry Training Board) who will highlight the progress of a new training tool which is being piloted. Other organisations will also be presenting, including Asco, Sharecat and Robert Gordon University.

The event, which will be held at Nexen’s office in Kingswells, Aberdeen, comes amid the development of the second phase of Oil & Gas UK’s Efficiency Hub – the first of which was launched last year to provide a one-stop shop for initiatives which help industry improve its performance.

The new interactive dashboard, to be officially launched at Share Fair on October 31, will offer a variety of tools and case studies to help businesses optimise for the future.
