Addressing the risk

The oil and gas industry has progressed from long term growth in traditional geographical markets to the ad hoc development of major reserves at locations with high levels of associated project risk. An assurance service is highly valued here and our strategy is particularly to support our clients to manage their risk in these more sensitive project circumstances.

A methodical independent design appraisal for all risk critical areas of design is a client preference, along with a high level of site surveillance at main construction sites and equipment manufacturing locations.

Where there is a lower risk profile, the scope and degree of surveillance can be optimised, with the focus and emphasis centred on the higher risk areas within the project. Our long term experience in a wide range of industries and geographical markets, combined with the application of state-of-the-art risk assessment techniques to consider the relative risk in different areas of design and construction, allows this focus to be achieved whilst maintaining confidence that the project objectives are not being compromised.

We work with our clients to design and implement the most appropriate system of independent assurance to suit the local regulatory requirements and the risk profile faced by the commercial venture. This assurance scheme can include elements to address safety and environmental risk, as well as risks relating to the operational performance of the asset.
