The innovative paradigm developed by Bureau Veritas has been applied to achieve superior outcomes and benefits for a major oil and gas player. The focus of this innovative approach achieved operational security and risk management for the critical ageing assets. The paradigm and its vital components will become the benchmark for the management and improvement of the performance of ageing assets and serve as a fundamental input to new generation design for oil and gas facilities. Among the key challenges in managing the performance (risk and integrity) of new and ageing assets are the understanding of process safety and critical equipment condition. When discussing with senior management the issues foremost on their minds, Bureau Veritas has found the answer is a common theme—how can I be confident the design of new or existing facilities is fit-for-purpose for the duration of the asset’s life? The integrated approach has brought together the leading concepts/tools in process risk management and prognostic health and reliability engineering. These components include rigorous risk-assessments of the process as well as sensing design based on failure mode consequence effect analysis (FMCEA), data acquisition and processing (real-time monitoring and data fusion), diagnostic and prognostic models and systems for the effective management asset(s). The result of this approach creates a value proposition of financial significance advantage.

Carbon as an Emerging Tool for Risk Management

Since 2005, when the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) launched, green adoption in business and industry has been marred by fraudulent carbon credits, VAT swindlers and carbon cowboys, inefficiencies of a nascent market, and not least of all by legislative uncertainty. The disrepute afforded by these examples hindered low carbon growth and deterred emerging business models from adopting more carbon friendly practices. But, as this chapter argues, the shift toward liberal environmentalism has yielded a new generation of businesses seeking to incorporate carbon assets, emissions trading, and sustainability strategies across the value chain. Central to this shift is the notion of carbon as a tool for risk management in businesses, which occurred through the instrumentalisation of CO2 into a tradable asset. By utilising carbon as a financial instrument, businesses are able to manage project risk, market risk, and reputational risk more effectively. This chapter demonstrates this argument through industry examples and provides practical advice for businesses today.

This case illustrates the new generation of ebusiness ventures made possible by the Internet and enabling information and communication technologies. AlertDriving is a recent Canadian start-up, which has moved through the microbusiness to the small business stage, and aims for continued growth. First-to-market with a Webbased driver training and fleet risk management service, the business combines e-learning, risk management, and e-business. Their new approach replaces traditional methods of classroom and behind-the-wheel driver training and paper-based fleet management systems. Growth has brought both opportunities and challenges to the firm and its two entrepreneurs/brothers. In particular, they face important decisions concerning continuing to grow revenue and profit.

As the modern integration movement continues to mature, three factors seem crucial to future training efforts. At the same time that third party control (managed care) and a burgeoning interest in spirituality (third party presence) are sending shock waves through the profession of applied psychology, leaders in the integration field are announcing an evolution of focus toward more practical and personal integration. These converging themes cast long implications across the construction of training programs which will spawn a new generation of integrators. In this article I discuss trends in training and suggest that future instructional efforts should be informed by four views: Out (practical integration), In (personal integration), Back (classic integration/soul care), and Forward (contemporary integration). I present and critique the Institute of Clinical Theology, an existing educational model based on these four views, and conclude with 12 training goals.
