As a trusted asset assurance partner to the oil, gas and renewables industry, we can help your business to adapt and thrive in today’s changing market. 

Today’s global energy landscape has introduced novel operational challenges for offshore businesses. The global energy demand is continuing to rise, but there’s more regulatory and social pressure to reduce carbon emissions than ever before. 

We work with you to navigate these challenges, mitigate risk and demonstrate compliance with government regulations and industry codes and standards. Throughout the offshore asset lifecycle, we guide you to deliver safe, efficient and sustainable operations. We support a wide range of offshore, subsea and onshore facilities, working with you to manage your existing and future portfolio of assets optimally and profitably.  

Our global expertise is multi-disciplinary – we combine asset expertise and deep knowledge of regulatory regimes, with best-in-class process engineering and geotechnical services. This is how we bring clarity to complexity, help optimise your operation and assist you to unlock the benefits of the latest innovative technologies

Integrated Energy value chain

A successful energy transition must be secure, affordable and clean. The Integrated Energy value chain achieves this by combining three key elements into a futureproof energy mix, including hydrocarbons, renewables and power 2X. It’s a crucial step for offshore businesses looking to develop a balanced, forward-thinking energy transition strategy. 

We work with offshore businesses to ensure that existing infrastructure and facilities as well as oil and gas, are operated as cleanly as possible. In addition, we work with governments, technology providers and industry stakeholders to develop and drive clean-energy technologies forward. 

Hydrocarbons 

Hydrocarbons provide energy security for offshore businesses moving through a long-term energy transition. At LR, we work with offshore businesses to ensure hydrocarbon use is as clean as possible through various strategies, including decarbonisation, reducing emissions, carbon capture, and electrification. 

Renewables 

Offshore renewables generate clean electrical energy to lessen the dependency on hydrocarbons and enable sustainable fuels to be produced. LR focuses on the supply of complex and innovative offshore renewable technologies, including fixed-bottom wind, floating wind, and wave and tidal. However, we can work with onshore renewables if they feed into an offshore system.

Power 2X 

Power 2X is being driven forward by renewables and sustainable energies. However, many of these transformative technologies are still being developed for commercial use. Hydrogen, ammonia, and methanol technologies aren’t energy-dense enough to be commercially viable yet. However, nuclear energy is energy-dense and is now considered sustainable. LR is actively working with technology providers to implement clean nuclear solutions for organisations’ energy transitions and decarbonisation efforts. 

Our network of global experts is available to support your business wherever your next venture takes you. With 70% of assets being deployed in harsh environments, you can be confident that we have the expertise needed for success.
