An Introduction to Key Concepts ..........................................................................................................................................1 John Henderson, Boston University, USA Vidar Hepsø, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Norway Øyvind Mydland, Stepchange, Norway The concept of a capability platform can be used to argue how firms engage networked relationships to embed learning/performance into distinctive practices rather than focusing only on technology. In fact the capability language allows us to unpack the role of technology by emphasizing its interaction with people, process, and governance issues. The authors address the importance of a capability approach for Integrated Operations and how it can improve understanding of how people, process, technology, and governance issues are connected and managed to create scalable and sustainable practices. The chapter describes the development of capabilities as something that is happening within an ecology. Using ecology as a metaphor acknowledges that there is a limit to how far it is possible to go to understand organizations and the development of capabilities in the oil and gas industry as traditional hierarchies and stable markets. The new challenge that has emerged with integrated operations is the need for virtual, increasingly global, and network based models of work. The authors couple the ecology approach with a capability platform approach. Section 2 People, Process, Governance, and Technology Capabilities Chapter 2 How Integrated Operations has Influenced Offshore Leadership Practice ...........................................21 Kari Skarholt, SINTEF, Norway Lisbeth Hansson, SINTEF, Norway Gunnar M. Lamvik, SINTEF, Norway This chapter discusses how Integrated Operations (IO) has affected new ways of working and addresses leadership practice in particular. It investigates both the positive and negative effects of IO in terms of virtual leadership teams and local leadership offshore, and how this may affect safety on board. IO contributes to the onshore organization being more actively involved in problem-solving and decision- making in offshore operations compared to earlier. This way, it has become easier to reach a shared situational awareness concerning planning and prioritizing of operations on board. However, the authors find that the integration of sea and land has not been successful in achieving increased hands-on leader- ship offshore. To explore this issue, they discuss findings from different research projects studying IO and changes in work practices onshore and offshore at different installations/assets in a Norwegian oil and gas company. Chapter 3 Creating an IO Capable Organization: Mapping the Mindset ..............................................................40 Bjørn-Emil Madsen, SINTEF, Norway Lisbeth Hansson, SINTEF, Norway Jan Eivind Danielsen, Bouvet, Norway Integrated Operations (IO) is an organizational change and the mindset of the organization and the mindset of individuals affects this change process and vice versa. In this chapter, the authors discuss the changes introduced by IO, requirements to the change management process and a concept, they call IO Mindset. Change processes may be supported by use of tools and methods such as surveys and interviews. The chapter describes three different methods especially developed to assist IO change management processes, all including IO Mindset elements. The first one, TAM-IO, supports implementation of new ICT tools while CCP supports the change towards team based work forms. The third method, IO Mindset assess- ment is a newly developed tool, taking into consideration experience gained through implementation of IO and experience with other tools. Pilot testing of IO mindset assessment is described and discussed. This work is based on the “IO Mindset project” performed in the “IO centre” (Madsen et. al, 2011). Chapter 4 Collaborative Work Environments in Smart Oil Fields: The Organization Matters! ...........................59 Ewoud Guldemond, Atos Consulting, The Netherlands In the last decade, oil companies are increasingly viewing collaborative work environments as an im- portant component of their smart oil fields programs. Collaborative work environments (CWEs) have been implemented by several major oil companies, to support the use of technology in smart oil fields. The implementation of these collaborative work environments is not without problems. After major oil companies successfully implemented the hardware, tools and applications in CWEs, organizational design challenges remained unsolved. The biggest challenge is to change behavior of staff and to ef- fectively integrate people across disciplinary boundaries. This chapter emphasizes the importance of the organizational aspect of CWEs in smart oil fields. The objective of this chapter is to provide the upstream petroleum industry with guidelines for the organizational design of the collaborative work environments, in support of the operation of smart oil fields. In order to provide the organizational design guidelines, a PhD research was conducted at three different operating units of a major oil company. This research focused on the business processes, organizational structure, and competencies of staff in the CWEs.
