摘要
This paper summarizes the experiences and results that improve business performance using Lean Six Sigma in North American and Asian upstream oil and gas operations. The background and history on Lean, Six Sigma, and Intl. Standardization Organization (ISO) systems are also provided. The role ISO-quality systems can play in supporting Lean and Six Sigma is explained and demonstrated with examples. The overviews of completed Lean Six Sigma projects are provided for well testing, rod-pump repair, water treatment, oil treatment, well stimulation, and production logging.
