Sustainable DecisionsWe enhance our customers’ decision quality by quantifying the environmental, social and financial sustainability of project options over the long term, helping our customers identify optimal business outcomes.

Our economic, engineering, environmental, social, risk and estimating specialists

work in integrated teams to assess project options against technical, social,

environmental and financial considerations and uncertainties. We utilize a suite of

sustainability decision-making techniques, including our EcoNomics™ Assessment

process to help customers make informed decisions for the long term.

EcoNomics™ Assessment

Using this unique process, audited and approved by Lloyd’s Register Quality

Assurance under ISO 9001, we quantify and monetize relevant environmental,

social and financial project considerations, helping our customers make robust

decisions.

During early alignment, we work with our customers to determine project

objectives, risks and constraints, and identify a wide range of options for

comparison. Our integrated teams develop engineering concepts and estimates

for each option, and quantify and monetize relevant non-technical considerations.

We then assess the performance of options using our proprietary DELTΔ tool,

comparing and communicating the lifecycle costs and benefits of options in

monetary terms, over a wide range of possible future business conditions.

WorleyParsons’ EcoNomics™ Assessment represents global best practice in

advanced business decision making for sustainability. Having delivered over

two hundred EcoNomics™ Assessments worldwide, this process has helped our

customers save millions of tons in CO2 emissions, billions of gallons of water and

significantly enhanced our customers’ financial outcomes.

Project Sullom Voe Terminal H2S Management ProjectCustomer BPProject Location ScotlandPhases

BP contracted WorleyParsons to select the best technical and commercial option for treatment of H2S in the gas stream feeding the BP Sullom Voe Terminal in the North Sea. The project had to deliver a solution that was technically robust and commercially favourable under the changing H2S regime. Commercial decision-making using EcoNomics™ Assessment was embedded in the WorleyParsons project delivery. An overall EcoNomics™ Assessment was conducted for the final option review process and customer sanction. Here, the key uncertainties around energy prices, capital and operating expenditure, carbon prices, sulphur emission prices and schedule delays were monetized and examined on a like-for-like basis. This allowed for selection of the optimum option from a commercial perspective along with the technical selection criteria.

Sustainable OperationsBuilding on the strong relationships within our established Improve alliances, we work to realize our customers’ sustainability objectives while continuously achieving new benchmarks in return-on-investment in their entire asset portfolio.

The business world faces many challenges, not only to maintain performance and

security but also to reduce costs and mitigate risk, all the while increasing revenues

to remain profitable. The impact of these challenges has been magnified in recent

years, brought about by the opening of markets to create a globalized economy

coupled with constant pressure imposed on industry from external regulatory

bodies. Today, organizations have to deal with more challenges than ever before to

be sustainable.

The Sustainable Operations process begins with the identification of our

customers’ business risks and sustainability goals. Typical aspirations include

reducing waste, emissions and use of resources, and increasing production

efficiencies. All generally have the potential to improve our customers’ financial

performance. We consider these goals when identifying and prioritizing value

adding projects to undertake, and then when delivering the projects to ensure our

customers optimize the profitability and sustainability of their operations.

In responding to our customer’s aspirations and by understanding relevant project

and operational issues, we are confident we have the systems, tools and people to

offer tailored solutions for our customers to remain both sustainable and profitable

in the long term.



Project Ten Year Energy PlanCustomer ConfidentialProject Location AustraliaPhases In addition to work being completed under an existing long term Improve alliance, the Sustainable Operations process was engaged to identify and examine options for energy efficiency improvement and emissions reduction within a refinery complex. A wide range of options, from the conventional to innovative, were considered and assessed using the EcoNomics™ Assessment process. This approach compared the environmental, social and financial costs and benefits of each option over a 20 year lifecycle. The optimal solutions identified CO2 emissions reductions of over 1.2 million tons, thousands of tons of NOX, SOX and PM10 emissions, almost $20 million in annual energy savings and over $100 million net improvement to the customer’s financial bottom line.
