Technical Integrity Management Services
On the back of the experience of our team, we provide technical integrity management services for environmental protection and safety during operation of oil and gas assets. During operations, operators require assurances that the solutions available are safe, reliable and cost effective.
The vast and practical experiences of the team allow us to offer you a pragmatic integrity management approach developed based on our strong technical understanding of oil and gas topside and subsea assets. This approach helps you to reduce risks and avoid costly repairs.
