CASE STUDY for Specialist Module G Warranty Surveys including Mobile Offshore Units

LLOYD’S
MARITIME
Diploma in Marine Surveying
CASE STUDY for Specialist Module G
Warranty Surveys including Mobile Offshore Units
You have been instructed by an oil company to attend a Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit during its next transit to a location thirty nautical miles away from its present position in the Caribbean Sea. This rig is under contract to drill seven exploration wells in the oil company’s concession block. During the previous two moves there were a number of delays that, from the oil company’s point of view, caused the rig to incur three days of operational downtime.
The rig is supported by two 12,000 bhp Anchor Handling Supply Vessels which started their charter with the drilling rig and are due to stay for the entire drilling program. Both rig and the Anchor Handling vessels have worked with this oil company on previous occasions without any major problems but the vessels are much older now than they were at the start of the association between the two companies.
The rig moves are carried out under the direction of the oil company’s own marine department and as a consequence, the drilling department of the oil company has asked for your report, as an independent assessor, of the likely causes of the delays, and has asked for your recommendations and advice about the next move.
a) Detail the preparations you will make to conduct such an assessment listing the equipment you would take and the precautions required for working as a surveyor during a rig move. (30%).
b) Outline the possible problems you may encounter. In particular list the personnel you would wish to speak to. How will you overcome their possible defensive attitude? (20%).
c) Show a detailed format of a report that you would make into the delays using headings and bullet points only and give the possible reasons which are likely to cause such a delay. (50%).
Word count target is 3000 words.

Topic 1: Risk Management:
Assuming that you are working for the Wembley National Stadium Ltd (WNSL), identify any six (6) key stakeholders to the WNSL. The six key stakeholders must include at least two (2) subcontractors and one (1) bank or financial institution. Refer to the presentations from the course and develop a suitable risk matrix and complete the following:
i. Identify the risks (with details of causes and consequences) related to the key stakeholders that you have identified above. [15 marks]
ii. Assess the probability (likelihood) of occurrence, the potential consequences, and the resultant risk rating (based on your risk criteria) if no mitigating measures are established / implemented. [5 marks]
iii. For each of these risks, indicate what mitigating (control) measures should be instituted in order to reduce the likelihood of occurrence and the severity of the consequences. [15 marks]
iv. Re-assess the likelihood of occurrence, the potential consequences and the revised risk rating in view of these measures (i.e. effectively establish and assess the residual risks). [5 marks]
Note that in filling out the columns of the risk matrix, you would have answered (i) to (iv). The final question below (v) is not listed on the risk matrix, and needs to be answered separately.
v. In your opinion, which of these risks would be better assessed using a more quantitative risk tool e.g. Monte Carlo? Briefly explain your answer. [10 marks]

Topic 2: Procurement Management
A major difference to business as usual for Multiplex was that they had to deliver the Wembley Stadium in the UK and not in Australia, i.e. they were delivering the project in a different jurisdiction. A key challenge for Multiplex was thus to secure the services of suitably qualified and capable local sub-contractors for the supply of services, materials and equipment.
From the performance of Multiplex and key sub-contractors it is clear that their relationship was not optimal in delivering the outcomes as required by WNSL. In providing a tender submission to WNSL, Multiplex had to engage with their sub-contractors prior to submitting their own proposal for the Design and Construction of the stadium. In preparing their own submission assume that Multiplex conducted their own tenders for the various work packages.
One of the key packages of work was for the design, supply and installation of the steelworks. Assuming that you are working for Multiplex and the project is in its early stages, you have been tasked to assist with the tendering process to secure the services of a suitably qualified and experienced company to provide the necessary materials and services. For the tendering of the steelwork you have specifically been asked to:
i. Define a procurement strategy (as comprehensive as you deem necessary) to engage the relevant sub-contractor (through a selective tendering process); [30 Marks]
ii. Define the tendering process, with specific reference to your evaluation criteria (and weightings) to identify the most suitable sub-contractor; and [10 Marks]
iii. Define the key performance metrics that you will incorporate in your contract. Multiplex will use these metrics to measure the performance of this subcontractor. You also need to illustrate how and when, Multiplex – as the prime contractor – will provide visibility to WNSL of the performance of their sub-contractors. [10 Marks]

3

Topic 3: Quality Management
Assuming that you are working for Multiplex and the project is in its early stages, you have been tasked to develop a quality management plan and complete the following:
i. Identify (at least five) quality parameters and expected levels of quality for project deliverables. To complete this task, please consider carefully what the deliverables are from Multiplex; [10 marks]
ii. Propose (at least two for each quality parameters) quality control measures as well as workflow processes/steps that will be used during deliverable preparation; [25 marks]
iii. Propose a process for submittal of deliverables to the WNSL, expected quality checking to be performed by the WNSL, and workflow processes/steps for documenting acceptance and rejection of deliverables. [15 marks]
