Abstract
This white paper provides an overview of Resilience Engineering and seeks to answer the following questions: 
• What is Resilience Engineering? • Why do we need Resilience Engineering in integrated operations? 
• What is the significance of performance variability? • How does Resilience Engineering work in practice? 
• How does Resilience Engineering fit with other safety management approaches? 
• How mature is Resilience Engineering? 
• What is the added value of Resilience Engineering for integrated operations in petroleum production?
