Technical Services For Turnarounds In Petrochemical Plants
Following on from our groundbreaking study examining petrochemical turnaround service provision in German-speaking countries, T.A. Cook is pleased to announce the first ever comprehensive study of the market for technical turnaround services in Western Europe, its leading players, business pressures and survival strategies to 2020.
The European petrochemical industry faces ever increasing competition and changes in patterns of demand for its products; the effective performance of shutdowns and turnarounds is an essential competitive factor for the petrochemical companies. In turn, technical service providers face challenges driven by reductions in turnaround times, cost pressures and the need to increase their share of projects.
Against this background of change and market evolution, this study will provide the data and analysis turnaround planners and contractors need to make the most effective decisions for long-term success.
Among other questions answered, you can find out:
What value of turnaround services are contracted out by petrochemical plant operators?
How will demand and supply for turnaround services evolve in the future?
Who provides technical services for turnarounds?
How will competition between turnaround service providers develop?
What are the most successful organisational and contractual models and why?
What strategic opportunities do turnaround service providers have?
Why read this study?
