Abstract

Abstract The purpose of this research is to look at construction projects in the Iraqi petroleum industry, which have suffered significant problems in the last decade. This research initially uses secondary data to examine the previous work to identify project problems in Iraq and worldwide. Furthermore, this research is performed by collecting primary data from the employees of Basra Oil Company using a survey. The finding of the research has identified that the contractor is the main reason of project problems, and that these problems mostly appeared during the execution phase in construction projects. The respondents of the questionnaire have assessed that project execution in the Iraqi petroleum industry is as a good or better. However, there are problems in Iraqi petroleum industry particular due to project schedule slippages. The most frequent cause of a project being behind schedule is due to using the lowest bidding prices from contractors.

摘要本研究的目的是观察伊拉克石油工业的建设项目，这些项目在过去十年中遇到了重大问题。这项研究最初使用次要数据来检查以前的工作，以确定伊拉克和世界各地的项目问题。此外，这项研究是通过调查从巴士拉石油公司的员工那里收集原始数据来进行的。研究发现，承包商是项目问题的主要原因，这些问题大多出现在建设项目的执行阶段。调查问卷的受访者评估说，伊拉克石油行业的项目执行情况良好或更好。然而，伊拉克石油工业存在问题，特别是由于项目进度延误。项目落后的最常见原因是使用承包商的最低投标价格。
