Root Cause Failure Analysis
Premium Workshop
For PEA Members Only
This workshop provides a practical framework for conducting root cause failure analysis (RCFA) in oil and gas mechanical systems. It covers failure mechanisms, analytical techniques, data collection methods, and corrective action planning. Participants will gain hands-on insights into systematically identifying underlying causes of equipment failures and implementing effective solutions to prevent recurrence.
Workshop Objectives
• Understand the fundamentals of root cause failure analysis.
• Apply structured methodologies and tools for failure investigation.
• Evaluate common mechanical failure mechanisms in oil and gas equipment.
• Develop effective corrective and preventive action plans.
• Strengthen decision-making to improve reliability and operational performance.
About the Presenter
The workshop is delivered by an experienced industry professional in failure analysis, reliability engineering, and mechanical integrity management. With strong technical and training experience, the presenter provides participants with industry-focused knowledge to enhance their capability in diagnosing and solving complex failure problems.

From Voume to Value
This 2-hour live workshop shows you how oil and gas assets are valued and how that valuation drives real investment decisions. The focus is on the working method used inside E&P companies — the actual process that determines whether a project gets funded.You'll build an economic model in Excel from the ground up, starting with a production profile and ending with the metrics that decide a project's future: NPV, IRR, payback period, and economic life. Along the way you'll see how each input — oil price, capital cost, operating cost, and fiscal terms — shapes the outcome, and how the two main global fiscal systems (concessions and Production Sharing Contracts) change the economics of the same barrel.The session is led by Mark Cook, SPE Distinguished Lecturer and published author, and is built around real Excel models you can follow during the workshop and keep afterward.By the end, you'll understand how a barrel of oil becomes a dollar of value, and how companies decide which projects to back at Final Investment Decision.Format: 2 hours, live on Zoom (with a short break)Date: 13 July 2026 — 9:00 PM Indian Time / 4:30 PM UK TimeTrainer: Mark Cook, Delta-T Energy Consultancy — SPE Distinguished LecturerAll content in this session is copyrighted by Mark Cook.
