A recent survey of petroleum industry contracting strategies indicates that alliances between operators and service companies had a success rate of nearly 75%. To determine the current trends and characteristics of alliances between customers (producers) and suppliers, a survey was sent to 200 petroleum industry personnel located in the Gulf Coast area. The survey population was divided into 100 producers and 100 suppliers. The survey was designed to determine how the petroleum industry defines an alliance and what they have experienced with their agreements. Survey results are discussed including failure rates, control, incentives, alliance formation, life cycle, reasons for forming alliances, performance measurements, and other findings.
