(a) Increased stakeholder engagement and buy-in.
4. Which of these examples BEST demonstrates the application of Preferred Alternatives in the oil and gas industry?
(a) Choosing the most popular brand of drilling equipment. (b) Selecting the most cost-effective pipeline route, even if it has a higher environmental impact. (c) Developing a new technology for oil extraction without considering its feasibility. (d) Determining the optimal method for processing crude oil, considering factors like efficiency and environmental impact.
(d) Determining the optimal method for processing crude oil, considering factors like efficiency and environmental impact.
5. Why is the evaluation of Preferred Alternatives crucial for responsible project management in oil and gas?
(a) It allows companies to choose the option with the lowest cost. (b) It helps companies meet all regulatory requirements. (c) It ensures a transparent and accountable decision-making process. (d) It guarantees project success.
(c) It ensures a transparent and accountable decision-making process.
Scenario: An oil company is considering two options for a new pipeline project:
Task:
**1. Evaluation Criteria:** * **Cost:** Option A is cheaper, while Option B is more expensive due to the complex engineering required. * **Environmental Impact:** Option A poses a greater risk to the sensitive wildlife habitat, while Option B minimizes environmental disruption. * **Safety:** Both options have potential safety risks, but Option B might have fewer risks due to the less sensitive environment. **2. Option Performance:** | Criteria | Option A | Option B | |---|---|---| | Cost | Lower | Higher | | Environmental Impact | High | Low | | Safety | Moderate | Moderate (potentially lower) | **3. Preferred Alternative:** Option B should be chosen as the Preferred Alternative. Even though it is more expensive, the reduced environmental impact and potential for a slightly safer route outweigh the cost difference. This aligns with the principles of responsible and sustainable oil and gas operations, minimizing potential harm to the environment and prioritizing long-term benefits over short-term cost savings.
