Research On The Improvement Of EPC Management In Shandong LNG Receiving Terminal Project

With the development of China's urbanization process and the further industrial upgrading,the demand of energy in China is growing rapidly.The introduction of LNG will play an important role to optimize China's energy structure,effectively solve the dual problem of the energy supply security and ecological environment protection,so as to realize the sustainable development of economy and society.In recent years,newly built and under construction LNG receiving terminal projects in China have been rising rapidly.LNG receiving terminal project needs high investment,long construction period,high content of technology,and higher level of project management.The selection of the appropriate project management mode is crucial to achieve the goals of project management.Through the integration management of design,procurement and construction,EPC management mode can effectively overcome the three contradictions between each other,it will conducive to the realization of project objectives and reduce risks of the owner.More and more owners of large domestic projects give priority to the EPC management patter,but there is always some problems in the implementation of specific projects.Many project management enterprises are constantly explore the EPC management model which is more in line with the development needs in our country.This paper firstly introduces the research background,purpose and significance,the research status of EPC management theory at home and abroad,research method and the thinking of writing.Next introduces the basic theory of project management,focus on EPC management theory and characteristics.Then combining the reality of Shandong LNG receiving terminal project management,introduces the general situation and project management mode,analyses the characteristics of the project management mode,the key to integrated project management,design management,procurement management,construction management and so on in detail.And then puts forward the EPC management problems of Shandong LNG receiving terminal project,analyzes the fundamental cause of the problem use of brainstorming,affinity diagram and fish bones analysis.Through the analysis and research about the fundamental cause of the problem,puts forward the relevant improvement strategies,provide important reference basis for the construction management in the other LNG receiving terminal project,so as to promote the expanding application of EPC management mode in the domestic other similar projects.
