Develop surface facilities
How develop surface facilities are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 15% of Develop surface facilities is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: Because this composite lacks seeded child occupations, the scalar is derived directly from its name and industry lens. Anchored in 'Oil and Gas Extraction' and 'Support Activities for Mining', developing surface facilities represents hands-on construction and physical infrastructure deployment, aligning with the strong physical prior for extraction industries (< 0.3) and resulting in a band-center physical score.

Business-as-Code
Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.
Develop surface facilities sits inside a larger value-flow — 1 parent structure it composes into. The hierarchy is grounding, not the story: it tells you which aggregate exposure Develop surface facilities inherits.

How the work flows
Trigger: Approval of the field development plan and capital allocation for surface infrastructure initiates the development phase.
- Finalize front-end engineering design for surface infrastructure
- Procure materials and construction equipment
- Prepare the site or offshore location
- Construct processing, storage, and transport units
- Integrate systems with wellheads and export routes
- Execute pre-commissioning testing and safety inspections
- Commission facilities and hand over to production operations
Outcome: Surface facilities are fully constructed, commissioned, and safely handed over to operations to process and transport hydrocarbons.
