Total
Quality Measurement in the Oil Industry (J.D. Symonds (Editor))
ISBN: 0751400408
This book shows the value of using measures, with practical advice on, and examples of, implementing
them specifically in the oil and petrochemicals industries, and is based on the relevant experiences
and investigations of the authors. Strongly oil industry focused, it is, however, expected that the
lessons will be applicable to many other industries. Like a cook-book, there are a number of recipes
to be tried and tested. Those most palatable to a particular organisation are likely to be the ones
repeated most often. It is particularly relevant to those organisations who are trying to establish
management by fact rather than opinion.
