Our View of the Sector
Heavy investments in production tools
Companies from the chemicals, petroleum and energy industries invest heavily in designing, building and running their production tools (plants, mines, oil installations, power stations, etc.), located all over the world, and which are subject to geological, technical, political and financial uncertainties and restricted by diverse regulations concerning security, hygiene and the environment.
A high level of subcontracting
The tendency of companies from these industries to use subcontracting, and this throughout the lifecycle of their production tools, contributes largely to the complicated nature of the value chain. In order to create value at the various stages of the production cycle, companies must ensure their exchanges with contractors are as efficient as possible.
