Operators must become bigger stakeholders in technology
Abstract
The declining involvement of oil and gas operators in research and development (R and D) is reducing profits for both the operator and the service provider. Greater responsibility for technology development is now being shouldered by the service providers, and there is a growing concern that they are drilling themselves out of a job. This concern is compounded when the financial results of the operator are compared with those of the service provider. The paper discusses reduced profitability, misconceptions about new technologies, time-based incentives, risk and reward, the aligned-interest agreement, and agreement structuring.
