Abstract :
This article presents an idea for project management focused on the comissioning process planning structured for the construction works of PETROBRAS off-shore oil production plants. Using the best practices known for project management and project planning, the practial experience learned on the following up of the construction of these plants, and an specific software used to create schedules for large construction projects, it shows a method to reduce some problems found on the commissioning process management as a whole. It is presented here a management method that, although it seems to be difficult to execute, it could bring major benefits to project managers and to serve better the costumers commissioning requirements for the oil platforms operational conditions.
