Abstract Research purposes： In recent years, the Chinese engineering enterprises have met great difficulties and earned painful lessons in executing EPC projects in Saudi Arabia，Indonesia, Poland，Australia，Turkey，Guinea and other countries. Talking about the reasons, there are factors of country differences and lacking of experiences in some specific markets, but what's more important is the lacking of accurate understanding and clear thinking about the construction mode of the overseas EPC projects which results in an incapability of catching good opportunities in project implementation and courses the enterprise sinking in the unfavorable situation deeper and deeper, eventually leads to huge losses. In this paper, the author tries to illustrate this question from the angle of project management theory. Combining the actual situation of Chinese engineering enterprises ' overseas business，and based on her working experience and long - term research of Chinese enterprises′overseas EPC projects, the author puts forward some ideas for solution and advices for reference in controlling the EPC projects′ risks effectively.
Research conclusions ： ( 1) Analyze the market environment objectively，recognize the substance of EPC product and establish the objective of localization so as to promote the transformation of economic business from internal - oriented mode to export 一 oriented mode; (2 ) Analyze the production factors of EPC product carefully，understand and master these resources so as to complete the transformation of role from a contractor to an integrator； (3) Grasp the key processes, and stick to the " design - led" and " contract - based" principle so as to achieve the target that the implementation risks of EPC projects are controllable. (4) These research results can be applied to preliminary decision — making, project management and other works of large - scale overseas EPC projects in fields such as transportation construction, electric power construction, petrifaction and chemical engineering, mining development, etc.
