More on our services

Project and Asset Reviews

Be it a Final Investment Decision on a Project or a Decision to Acquire or Divest assets, ValVestris provides an independent and integrated review you can count on.

Business Planning

Assessing the robustness of your business plan is very important, yet complex. Our team can quickly assess the quality of assumptions, the reliability of short and long-term forecasts and the credibility of future scenarios.

Project Management

It is invaluable to have an independent view of your project execution plans based on decades of experience in running very large projects.

Strategy

Given our first-hand experience in setting and implementing strategy in many different energy companies, we can assess the credibility of your strategy, point out critical success factors and suggest areas for improvement.

Governance

We provide support, assurance and training in areas such as risk management and high-quality decision-making.  We also have deep and broad expertise in managing interests in assets where you are a non-operator and hold a minority share.

Our Approach

To capture as much of our combined industry knowledge we have developed a suite of in-house maturity models called iVal®. This lets us benchmark every step of every phase of your project with peers or competitors.

Managing Risks: the Why, the What and a novel way of the How

Johan Pieters |

Every organization has objectives and works to achieve them. Risks are events that can prevent organizations from reaching these objectives, whilst opportunities are the opposite, they can help to surpass objectives. In this article we focus on the former. Risks are inherent to reality; no progress can be made without incurring risks. However, we should not be blind to them; there are many examples of organizational failure as a result of mismanaging risk. That is why we need to become good risk managers; in the remainder of this article we share our thoughts on a novel and pragmatic way to do so.
